Accessing the Flyer Designer

After installation:

Designing a Flyer Template

The flyer designer is a WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) canvas editor.

Canvas Setup

  • Choose a canvas size:
    • 4×6 inch (standard product flyer)
    • 5×7 inch
    • 8.5×11 inch (full page)
    • Square (for social media)
  • Choose orientation: Portrait or Landscape

Design Elements

Drag and drop elements onto the canvas:

Text Blocks

  • Add text boxes for headings, prices, and descriptions
  • Dynamic fields pull live product data:
    • {{product.name}} — Product name
    • {{product.price}} — Current price
    • {{product.msrp}} — MSRP / original price
    • {{product.sku}} — SKU
    • {{product.description}} — Product description
    • {{product.condition}} — Condition
    • {{store.name}} — Your store name
    • {{store.phone}} — Store phone

Image Placeholder

  • Add an image zone for the product photo
  • At print time, the selected product's image fills this zone
  • Resize and position the image zone on the canvas

Product Cards

  • Add pre-designed "product card" blocks that auto-populate with product data
  • Product cards include name, price, and image in a formatted layout

Shapes & Decorations

  • Rectangles, circles, lines
  • Colorful banner / ribbon elements
  • Background color or gradient fills

Logo / Branding

  • Upload your store logo once — it's saved to the template permanently
  • Resize and position on the canvas

Styling

  • Fonts: Choose from 20+ web-safe fonts
  • Colors: Custom hex color picker
  • Borders and shadows on elements
  • Newclear's brand indigo (#6366f1) is available as a preset

Saving the Template

Click Save Template to save your design. Give it a name (e.g., "Standard Price Tag", "Clearance Flyer").

Multiple templates can be saved.


Printing a Flyer (Print Flyer Modal)

Once your template is designed, you can generate a flyer for any product:

Opening the Print Flyer Modal

From any product:

  1. Open the product detail page
  2. Click Print Flyer (appears in the product actions menu)

OR from the Products List:

  1. Right-click or open the Actions menu on a product
  2. Select Print Flyer

The Print Flyer Modal — 5 Steps

Step 1: Select Template

Choose which flyer template to use from your saved templates.

Step 2: Product Image

  • The product's primary image is selected by default
  • Click Change Image to select a different product image
  • Or upload a new one-time image

Step 3: Product Cards

  • If your template includes product card zones, choose how many products to include
  • Select additional products if you want a multi-product flyer (e.g., 4-product comparison sheet)

Step 4: Values / Override Fields

Review and optionally override dynamic field values for this specific print:

  • Price shown on flyer (defaults to current price)
  • Name (defaults to product name)
  • Any other template field

This lets you customize the flyer without changing the actual product data.

Step 5: Preview & Download

  • A live preview renders the flyer with your selected product data
  • Verify everything looks correct
  • Click Download as JPEG to save the flyer image
  • Click Print to send directly to your printer

tip

Create a "Quick Price Tag" template with just the product name, SKU, and price — small enough to print on label stock. Use this to quickly print tags for new arrivals straight from the product page.
