Printareas in Edit Mockup within Product Base

When using the mockup editor, you can add new images or create new print areas. Make sure to add at least one print area layer to show where your design will be printed. Each layer lets you adjust the size and rotate it to fit your design perfectly.


Add Image



The Add image button is used to upload layers interleaved with the print area. This can be used to make the model more realistic, especially in cases:
Display the product's material: For certain products, displaying the material is crucial for providing customers with the most accurate depiction of the actual product. In such instances, it's necessary to include an image showcasing the material layered above the mockup background and print area.
Display printarea in a different shape: E.g. your print area is rectangular, but you want to display it on the model with rounded corners to resemble the shape of a doormat.

Add printarea



A print area is the specific part of a Print on Demand (POD) product where designs can be printed. Each POD product can have its own unique print areas. Therefore, printarea will decide the size of the order's design sent to fulfillment.
When you add artworks to product base in Campaign, artworks will show up on mockup according to the size and position of printareas:

When changing the size of the print area, ensure that the ratio of Width to Height matches the original ratio to avoid incorrect display of your design in the preview on the Campaign and Storefront. We recommend dragging from the corner instead of manually entering the Width and Height.

Clipping Mask: similar to Photoshop’s Clipping Mask. In mockup, clipping mask mode helps you create a specific print area, edit, resize, support for Mockups with multiple print areas quickly and conveniently.
Click on a printarea you want to crop -> Turn on the Clipping Mask button -> Adjust mask's size and position:


Only the parts of artwork in the mask can show up on mockup. Other parts will be hidden.


Preview artwork: allow choosing an artwork as preview for easy setting, custom mockup.
To set a preview for the Print area layer, click on that layer and select Preview artwork. The system will display a list of artworks, select the appropriate artwork and press OK.
