The commercial printing market is expected to witness spectacular expansion in the next years, according to the current market landscape.
By 2026, it is expected to be valued at USD 472.35 billion specifically. Of course, it’s profitable, but no one promised it would be simple to offer customized commercial print products.
That is a result of the product’s nature. Complex items include cards, banners, leaflets, menus, etc.
For instance, you might want your customer to alter a certificate’s text but not its graphic elements. Or perhaps you only want a graphic’s color changed, not its alignment.
There are too many components to manage, too many criteria to satisfy, and too many people to communicate with on a single project. Take daily orders from hundreds of customers.
Without the proper tools and functions, it might be difficult to design and print with exact precision.
Meant specifically for commercial products, the Product Designer Tool developed by ImprintNext can help you solve all potential challenges.
Restrict Users to Make Modifications Using Backoffice Admin:
You would like buyers to tweak only some portions of your product while leaving the rest unchanged. The tool’s lock feature is useful in such a situation.
What is a lock feature and how does it work?
You can use this functionality to lock particular objects from the backend when you generate ready-made design templates for your end users. It limits how much the user can modify certain things. You will have total control over the customization procedure in this way.
Different types of locks you can enable
The Product Design Tool comes with various locks. It includes the following:
- Edit lock
- Position lock
- Property lock
Here is an illustration of how the feature functions. The blue rectangle that you can see, the company name, and the corporate logo are the three primary layers.
Users won’t be able to make any more changes to the text after clicking the lock icon, including changing the text’s color or font style.
Edit Objects in Less Time Using Forms
Let’s say a consumer wishes to purchase 100 ID cards. Editing the company logo, email address, name, and other aspects repeatedly is a difficult task.
With form-based customization, however, your consumers can make changes all at once rather than having to pick and edit each piece separately.
Overall, this expedites the process of customizing a product, resulting in on-time delivery and satisfied customers.
Manage Multiple Layers with The Help of Layer Management
Your clients can control many layers on the product when they customize it thanks to the layer management capability. Let’s examine this in greater detail.
Users can add text, graphics, artwork, QR codes, backdrop patterns, etc. in layers to any product to make it their own.
Each thing is uniquely manageable, and they can alter it to suit their needs. They can bring each object forward or backward, lock it, delete it, conceal it, and do many other things.
Mass Customization Enable Variable Data Printing
The main goal of variable data printing is to make the process of mass customizing items simpler. Users can modify the text or graphic data with just a few clicks.
The tool’s backend has a setting where you can enable the VDP file. After that, end users can add field data, such as an ID number, a person’s name, and other details. A CSV file or picture file can be uploaded.
Users can access all of the records in one location where they can modify current records, add new entries, and so on.
Additionally, they may examine all of their products with a preview! This offers them the assurance they need to go ahead and make the buy.
This enables your consumers to order several products with a single click using variable data printing.
Final Words About the Product Designer tool
