Fotowall
Fotowall is a free application for building graphical compositions from photos, pictures, text, live video, word clouds, and material dragged from the internet. Users layer and manipulate these elements on a canvas, with custom layouts and text overlays listed among its capabilities. The changelog includes undo and redo, picture cropping, a word-cloud editor, PosteRazor integration, and high-quality print-ready PDF output. PDF and SVG are listed export formats. The browser version handles ordinary image and text operations, but browser canvas export is still described as upcoming.
