Here are the latest news about Vellum:
17.06.25. Vellum improved page background and border setup
Mac-based ebook creation software Vellum has released the new version 3.9. It enables authors to apply background not only in the first page but to every page of content. You can add a vintage paper texture, a wintery scene or a sparkling star field, then choose whether to apply it to just one chapter or your entire book. Also the new version allows to set up artistic page borders, like Floral filigree or Flickering flames. Page Borders are your chance to color outside the lines. Both new functions are in the new Background and Border section of Styles. Besides, in the update color output has been overhauled to better match Adobe tools like InDesign. Full Page Image now includes controls for full bleed Image Scale. Tooltips for custom images now display original filename and image size
2023. Vellum improves search and start-up window
Ebook Editing software for Mac, Vellum, has whimsically decided to embrace the concept of "better" by rolling out a slew of updates that are equal parts clever and unapologetically useful. The Find Bar, now positively enlightened, can locate words even if they're audacious enough to sport apostrophes, quotes, or ellipses, as though it had finally decided that punctuation was worth acknowledging. The Startup Window, no longer content with its modest existence, now boldly showcases up to 100 recent files, allowing users to pin their darlings to the top, like celestial constellations of productivity. Scene breaks? Naturally, you can now dictate their existence at the top or bottom of the page, which is sure to delight control enthusiasts everywhere. The Text Editor grumbles less, offering a broader space for editing, while undoing mistakes now feels more like magic, affecting whole words instead of dainty single letters. And, as if that wasn’t enough, Custom Heading Background Presence has graduated to number form (how modern!), subheads have infiltrated the Logical TOC (or NCX, for acronym aficionados), and the Keep with Next feature has upped its game in sheer functionality, likely to much applause.
2022. Vellum 3.4 enables export books to Word
The arrival of Vellum 3.4 is akin to discovering an extra slice of cake at the end of a very long and exhausting dinner party. Not only can you now hurl your meticulously crafted Word documents into Vellum’s welcoming embrace, but you can also, quite astonishingly, fling them back out again as polished Word files using the remarkably named "Export Content" command, found lurking in the File menu. Meanwhile, the new Written Note feature provides an eerily delightful way to insert heartfelt, possibly tear-streaked, notes from your characters, complete with customizable parts and an array of font options ranging from "handwritten elegance" to "dystopian scrawl." And then, as if to truly seal the deal, the Text Conversation feature allows you to inject formatted text message banter into your book, complete with options for sent and received messages and six—count them, six!—distinct styles, ensuring your narrative reaches unprecedented levels of interactivity and sheer conversational pizzazz.
