Vistaprint Upload Question

curlz1226

Hello everyone,

I am new to navigating Vistaprint and doing some DIY projects. I recently found a design I'd like to upload to Vistaprint for my STDs. But, I am not sure if I need to have all of the text on it before I upload or if I can add text onto the design once it's uploaded. I am going to wait to get a free upload so I want to be prepared!

TIA The knowledge and skill of all the ladies on this board always amazes me!

It needs to be entirely finished before you upload it.

no, you do not have to have text on it - there's places to add text there. They don't have a lot of choices in fonts, so if you have a special one you like you can add text before, but you do not have to.

 I've not tested this yet myself, but I was going to see which prints better. You should have no problem at all with your prints looking good if you use their template for your particular project.

Your font choices and color choices aren't that great - they won't likely match if you upload it and add text later.  I tried a bunch of options when I did our STDs last year, and by far the best was having a finished image before I loaded it.

Agreed with pp...it's best to have the entire file (including text) made and then uploaded.

For the sizing to get a better quality picture, you should size the image/whatever you're uploading 4 times larger than the actual size of the vista print product.

Find jena.n.ross's Vista print bio on DIY board.  She has all kinds of great tips and step-by-step info.
