Change and Customize Text

Select the text box on the left of the design.  Type in your text and format it.


Format your text

 
 Change the font of the text.
 
 Change the size of the text. We do not recommend any font sizes below 6 because they may be too small to read when printed.
 
 Change the vertical space between lines above and lines below within a textbox.

 Change the horizontal space between characters within a textbox.
  Align your text within the text box.  
Top, middle, or bottom is the vertical alignment.
Left, center, or right is the horizontal alignment.

 
 Change the color of your text.
 
 Change the style of your font to make it bold, italic, or underlined.
 
 Insert a symbol or character.
  Arrange the layers by moving a layer above or below other layers.  The number showing is the order that the layer is from the front.

 

Add and Delete Objects/Layers

Add text and images by clicking the buttons on the top toolbar.
Delete text and images by selecting the object and clicking  on the left of the design.  If you do not delete the text or image, it will be printed.

 

Guidelines

Anything outside of the red dotted lines (cut line) will be CUT OFF the final print product.  Any graphics or background touching the red dotted lines must be extended to the edge of the artboard so when we cut on the red line, your color still goes to the edge of the paper.  

Place important text or graphics inside of the gray dotted lines (safety zone) or else they will be in danger of being cut off

The red and gray dotted lines are guidelines only and will not be printed.


Back Side of Template
If you selected "Printing: full color front only (blank back)," ignore page 2 (no printing on back side).  If you selected "Printing:  full color both sides," please click on page 2 at the bottom and change to your desired text.
