Print area

The red dotted area is equal to the print area, therefore, all edits must be done within this area. Any element placed outside the red-dotted area, will not be printed on the final product.

Use the 'Live Preview' window to visualize how the final design will look on the product.

Layers

The left side menu of the editing page is displaying the different logos or graphics of the design. These are arranged per layer - the first item listed is the top layer of the design.

Rearranging layers

The layers can be rearranged by hovering the mouse on the left side of each line and moving them in order of preference. This will be reflected in the product's design.

In the example below: 'Layer 2' was rearranged and now shows on top of 'Layer 1'.
