- Printed sheets retain references and markers that OBO uses when aligning scanned artwork.
Field notes
Users start with a video or image sequence, arrange frames, and print contact sheets as PDFs. After drawing, painting, or collaging on paper, they scan the sheets back in; OBO asks users to keep printed markers and codes visible, then provides page-order checks, alignment and crop adjustments, playback review, and export controls. The downloads are offered for Apple Silicon Macs running macOS 13 or later and 64-bit Windows 10/11.
