VERY IMPORTANT
Due to size output for digitized files, you will NOT have controls to scale an embroidered art asset. You will however be able to nudge your file from left to right & up or down.
Your print regions are extremely important when utilizing Embroidery through RPC. It will take the exact dimensions you have entered (i.e. 4x4), placing the artwork in the center.
If your print region is off, the quickest way to resolve the issue is by clicking on the pencil icon that shows below the product pictured below.
This will load the Edit Print Regions popup, where you can make adjustments to your region so the artwork applies properly. .png?width=688&name=image%20(4).png)
Notes on Edit Print Region:
1) If the artwork is appearing too small, you will need to scale the Print Region down (Example: Adjust the height from 16.25 inches down to 14), if the artwork appears too large, you will need to scale the Print Region up (Example: adjust the height from 16.25 inches up to 18).
2) Be cautious with these kinds of edits if you are working on a product you offer in the Designer, as changes to your print region made here will have a permanent affect on the blank item.
The alternative to using our Edit Print Region popup is to go into the blank product to resolve the issue (Admin Portal > Products > Manage Products > Edit product > Print Regions).
Will allow you to make any changes/ edits prior to saving your pre decorated product.
