Xara Web Designer Comes in 2 versions, Web Designer and Web Designer Premium; Premium offers advanced web design features.

Main Features of Xara Web Designer

There is no easier solution: Traditional web authoring tools are really just HTML editors, originally designed to create text layouts, providing few graphical capabilities. Yet it’s evident that the majority of modern websites are of a graphical nature. We believe you should have complete freedom to include anything – text, graphics, photos – anywhere on the page, using just one tool. And you shouldn’t need to know, or even see, the HTML that goes into creating your site, any more than a car driver needs to know how an engine works.

Web Designer treats web page design just like a print page layout. You can either create your own page and site designs from scratch with the powerful page layout and design tools or simply 1) pick your design from the templates 2) customize it with complete freedom 3) publish.

A one tool solution: You only need one program for creating graphical websites – from design to publishing – and that’s Web Designer It includes all the tools you need for designing your pages, even including illustration tools and photo editing (an integrated ultra-fast, non-destructive photo tool), and for advanced text layout. Web Designer’s Online Content Catalog (provided as part of the Update Service) includes customizable web graphic, webpage and website template designs, plus a collection of Widgets and a huge collection of royalty-free, high-quality photos from Pixabay.

Total design freedom: Web Designer gives you total design freedom – using drag and drop you can literally place anything, anywhere on the page. And things which are normally difficult to achieve in HTML are a snap in Web Designer – for example text with curved edges, text or graphics at an angle, text flowing around objects – no problem!

Compatibility: Working with industry standards is vital, so Web Designer sites are W3C compliant, cross-browser compatible (IE 8+, Firefox, Safari, Chrome) and XHTML, CSS standards-based. It can also import a huge range of file types for vector graphics, image, and text including PDF, RTF, RAW, PSD, SVG, TIFF and of course JPEG, PNG, GIF. Premium offers some extra import formats (ODP, PPTX) and can also export presentations to PPTX (beta).

WYSIWYG

Whether you customize one of the bundled templates or create your own graphics or animations, it’s genuinely WYSIWYG – what you see in Web Designer is exactly what you get on your website. 

Quality results guaranteed

Xara Web Designer’s templates are created by top professional designers, so the quality is guaranteed. But of course, you can customize the color, text, images, size, etc to create your own personal look without any loss of quality. It’s the best of both worlds!

Clever stuff

Liquid text flow around objects; easy mouseover, thumbnail and pop-up creation; automatic adjustment of photos to the correct web resolution; one-click change of site-wide theme colours and shades; automatic colour matching of imported objects such as buttons; a concept of ‘repeating objects’ such as headings and button bars – edit one instance and they all update; buttons and text panels that automatically stretch as you change the text; smart automatic repositioning of objects and resizing of pages as you add new text; font embedding which frees you from the restriction of ‘web-safe’ fonts.
