Info updated on:

BookSmart is a complete solution when it comes to designing your own cookbooks, business portfolio, wedding album, novel, and many other things. This program was developed as a freeware alternative to hiring a graphic designer to get the aforementioned tasks done.

The application provides you with a wide range of templates, page layout settings, themes, and much more. After you make the necessary book design alterations, you can start importing pictures and writing the text content.

A good thing about working with this program is that, once you complete designing and writing the book, you can find out how much money you get to spend if you plan to publish the book using the Blurb's services (the developer of BookSmart).

A disadvantage of BookSmart is that it support only one output format (.bookexport) when it comes to exporting your book projects.

As for the rest, this program gives you access to a comprehensive set of templates, themes, and page arrangement configurations that help you design your book with minimum effort. You can import from your Flickr and Picasa accounts, adjust text settings according to your needs, and back up your book project whenever you like.
