Customize your Portrait Pages Faster than Ever in Encore

Written by Buzz Bot | Nov 4, 2025 7:35:32 PM

Need to add a portrait? Encore makes it easy!                 

In Balfour’s Encore, you can now easily add individual portrait boxes or portrait panels to your portrait and flow layers before running your portrait flow. This enhancement makes it simple to include additional students or staff without disrupting your existing layouts—saving time and ensuring every face finds its place.

Adding panels works just as smoothly — the entire panel row can be copy/pasted for quick, consistent updates. Whether you’re fine-tuning your book or managing portraits, this feature streamlines the process from start to finish. Note: in order to add portrait boxes you must delete the portrait flow first if you've already flown portraits in.
