Great tutorial as always! Thank you so much and keep them coming.

[@Printify]

Will do! And let us know if you'd like to see anything in particular! 😉

[@elliswashington1149]

Hi Leah, Great video. Question: Regarding the resolution, I discovered that there are three: high. medium, and low. Is the "medium" acceptable quality. Please advise asap. Thanks.

[@Printify]

Hi! High resolution will give you the sharpest image, but depending on what the image or design is, medium quality may meet your standards. We highly recommend ordering samples to see how your products will come out.

[@vinthilldesigns4861]

Thank you for the video!

[@elliswashington1149]

Great video. I have been a photographer for decades. I have a variety of original wild animal, butterflies, and floral photos sitting on my computer. Can I upload them for this process?

[@Printify]

Yes, you can absolutely upload your own photos! 😃

[@elliswashington1149]

@@Printify Thanks. You have no idea what this information means to me. Individual folks have seen my work in frames and bought it on the spot. Photography is my passion and what I use to minister to the human spirit.

My interface looks different and I'm trying to find a step by step guide. I need help, is there a more detailed tutorial that's newer and has the current interface?

[@Printify]

Our interface has changed a little and we're working on updating all our product videos soon. In the meantime, this article and video walks you through how to create a product with our new interface step-by-step.

Question For Printfy: Should I lower the resolution for the canvas mockups? I'm trying to sell canvas prints and I don't know what to do.

[@Printify]

Hi there! Stick with higher quality always. The higher the resolution, the better the print quality.

[@Jasspreet374]

Hi thanks for this video . From last day instaling and then again delete pritfy being beginner i was not able to do . Its humble request you to make more videos like that will help us.

A question. You know how you're showing us the UI with the dotted lines showing the folded edges? Once you bring in your art on that screen, note how nice and dark your blacks are in the lion artwork. At 1:15, you show preview mode ... note how the dark blacks get lighter immediately. This is the issue I'm having with my original art. My dark, 100% black end up looking like 85% black in the thumbnail previews ... and I since it doesn't look as nice, I'm worried it's going to turn off customers. I've tried going even darker in my blackest areas (100% in all colors) ... but I'm still getting the same result. Any advice?

[@Printify]

Hi! We understand what you're saying. Keep in mind that what you see on your screen will print differently since physical products can't be replicated exactly as on screen when it comes to color. It could be that your seeing the preview in CMYK mode which will be a more accurate representation of the final printed product. We suggest ordering a sample with various colors of blacks to see which will meet your expectations best. For example, you could order one canvas with a grid of 10 different blacks to better compare the tones.

At any given moment, the urge to sing "The Lion Sleeps Tonight" is just.. A whim away,A whim away, A whim away, A whim away Does that qualify as a lion joke?

You've far exceeded expectations with that joke. Well done! 🦁

Can you show how to do a 3 piece wall set, please? I want to create a 3 pc set and can't figure out how to group them. Thank you. This video was helpful.

[@Printify]

Hi there! Great idea, we'll note it down ;)

[@RustamAli-tr1ke]

Leah. your talking style amzing i like it

[@Sam_Cali]

I want to mirror my edges but I also want to have my signature in the bottom corner. How can I have my signature close to the edge without it being mirrored on the side also? Is it possible? I’ve tried with the text box but I can’t seem to do it.

[@Printify]

Hey, Unfortunately, the text will mirror in our Product Creator, so you'll need to choose "print on sides" without mirroring. Alternatively, you can create the mirrored look in a separate design platform and add it to the product creator, check "print on sides", and then add your text. This is good feedback for us, however, to improve this feature. Thanks for pointing it out!

[@victoriartist]

Hello! do you do printing on round canvasses?

[@Printify]

Hello 👋We don't have round canvases, but we'll make a request! Thanks!

[@happysquirrel5858]

how to print 3 set of canvas?

[@Printify]

Hi! You'd have to create 3 separate canvases in Printify and then combine them into one listing.

[@donthurtus]

I'm trying to figure out how to make a vertical canvas horizontal. Is that possible or do I have to create everything sideways and edit my listing after I list it!?!!

[@Printify]

Hey! Unfortunately, there's no way to rotate the template in the product creator, but we'll share this feedback. It would definitely be helpful!

[@CanvasCharms123]

Is it possible to be able to offer framed and unframed canvases for the same image under the same listing in my store with Printify? If yes, then how can I? Thanks!

[@Printify]

Hey, it depends on where you're selling. If you're selling on Etsy, for example, you can follow these steps: help.printify.com/hc/en-us/articles/16510267725329-How-can-I-combine-multiple-products-into-a-single-listing-on-Etsy.

[@laurenjones2177]

Is this product good for typography? I want to create wall art with words? Any recommendations?

[@Printify]

Hi there! Wall art is great for typography. We actually made a great video about working with fonts and text based designs here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/r5nGaYOCqdSMhZosi=JV4aG50dHPBDrFKA

[@vanessabbrooks698]

Can you create wall art galleries in printify with difffrent images?

[@Printify]

Hi there! We're not sure what you mean by galleries, but if you're speaking of mockups, then unfortunately no, if you want to create a mockup with multiple products you will have to edit that together separately.

[@candycarlile3853]

Did you design for a specific size canvas then just add the other sizes? If you design for the largest size, then add other sizes, does the provider just scale down for the others?

[@Printify]

You can design different variations of the same item, all at the same in our product creator. Before you list, you can choose whether to add them to one listing or to sell each separately

[@BryceDaAlmighty]

@@Printifyevery time I get my image perfect in the printed area and then go to another size my previous one changes and gets cut off in preview

[@Printify]

@@BryceDaAlmighty Hey! You'll need to resize the design for that specific variant. help.printify.com/hc/en-us/articles/4483630240913-How-can-I-create-a-single-product-with-different-designs

[@NealCross-yb3pv]

How to get higher resolution for bigger canvas'? It seems I can only get to 4000x4000 without spending a ton of money

[@Printify]

Hi there! If you’re creating a design from scratch, we recommend creating vector format files that are much more flexible in terms of resolution and scaling. However, if you’re creating raster format files (JPEG/PNG), it’s always best to create a high-resolution version in a large size, which can be scaled down if necessary. The same can’t be done when scaling up a small-sized JPEG/PNG file - the file quality will suffer. For all the ways to increase the quality of your image file, check out this article we made which lays out all your options: help.printify.com/hc/en-us/articles/4483601444113-How-do-I-get-a-high-quality-design-file

[@suzannebeam6935]

Hi, Printify!. I'm having trouble uploading my image files for canvas. My 2:3 and 3:2 files are sized at 24x36 / 36x24 inches. The resulting jpg file is just over 50MB, which I understand it a hard limit. Can you please recommend the best way to reduce file size, while preserving quality? The files are in CMYK color space, so converting to .png isn't an option (as far as I know). Would you suggest lowering the resolution? Currently they are 300ppi.

[@Printify]

Hi! We recommend uploading design files in RGB. This article provides some different options on how you can resize and get the best image quality :) help.printify.com/hc/en-us/articles/4483601444113-How-do-I-get-a-high-quality-design-file-

Greetings Again, I am pursuing my canvas mounting project. On the site when starting this task, what target markets based on countries do you recommend from the list of options, or do I check off all of them? Please advise asap. Thanks.

[@Printify]

Hi! This depends on where you plan on selling or where your main audience is located. For example, if most of your target market is located in the US, we recommend selecting a US based provider to save on shipping costs.

[@elliswashington1149]

Thanks for the prompt response. I didn't know this and selected the USA and the other countries on the list. Currently, my products are not published. How do I go back and specify the USA only as you recommended? I tried to make this adjustment but I don't see a setting that allows me to do this. Please provide instructions. Thanks again.

[@elliswashington1149]

I'm mounting photos on canvas. I live in the USA. I mistakenly entered other countries as my target market. I searched unsuccessfully to correct this error. My mounts haven't been published yet. How do I correct this error? Please advise asap. Thank you.

how to set dimensions to metric in printify? I already choose european suppliers but I cant find the setting to show the dimensions in cm. its inches all over the place even with european suppliers HEEEEELP

[@Printify]

Hi there! Unfortunately, we are only able to publish products using the imperial system for now. However the product page in our catalog should have a sizing table in both formats. Or, if you'd like your listing to be in metric, you can edit the variant directly on your sales channel, like Etsy.

[@germanleonne2415]

what if i want my whole design to fit in the whole canva without cutting anything?

[@Printify]

Hi! You can see the exact print area dimensions in the product creator to ensure nothing gets cut off.

[@elliswashington1149]

I've contacted you recently. This video has had such a positive impact on me. As I opened the folders of photos in my computer, coupled with your information, I feel like I've discovered a gold mine. I have been using the Printify tool to mount my photos. The process is quite doable and I'm impressed. As a Newbie, I want advise on how to draw traffic. I'm connected with Shopify and I haven't published my Shopify or Printify store yet. I'm also thinking strongly about connecting to Etsy to promote my work. Am I on the right track, or do you have any more recommendations that will help me to reach potential buyers. I look forward to your response. Thanks for sharing.

[@Printify]

Hi! We're happy you've made this discovery! 😃 You're definitely on the right track! Shopify and Etsy are both great platforms to sell, but are quite different. Etsy is a marketplace, meaning you won't need to drive as much traffic on your own, whereas Shopify, you'll need to get buyers to your store. Shopify could be a great place to start if you already have buyers. If you're just starting out, Etsy may be a bit more beginner friendly when it comes to getting traffic.

Hi there! You can sell your products through marketplaces like Etsy, by creating your own store on Shopify, or even quickly create a store page through Printify Pop-Up and share your link to start selling right away. We have videos about all of these so take a look, comment any questions you have, and we'll do our best to help you out!
