[Qgis-community-team] Shadow border in training manual images?

[Eduardo Gonzalez]

hi,

I managed to batch create fuzzy frames using GIMP. Using Batch Image
Manipulation and the procedures add-border and add-fuzzy-border.

Not so nice looking as those created by the mac, but it's a good solution,
at least the images are not stucked with the text now.

Regards

Eduardo
