Apart from that you can create more things than just digital albums in EDA. You can create DVD Covers, cards, invitations and so much more, simply by typing any custom size you want. And in the 3.5.2 version of EDA, that's being released, many new templates have been added, for invitations, cards, even magazines, to help you create more and increase your income.
