How does PRS work for Designers?

PRS is a value added service for Designers who add consumer customization options to existing designs.

Through PRS, designs are enhanced in two easy steps:

  1. Customization Fields – PRS aids Designers in adding customization fields for text, photos, monograms, and motifs to existing designs.

  2. Product Database – through PRS, Designers upload PDF designs to a PRS product database that provides easy access to Integrators who sell or manufacture final products.

Setting up PRS to upload your Designs

After creating a PRS Designer Account, Designers will need to define the following items:
  1. Fonts - Upload all of your font files to PRS for use in personalization of text elements.

  2. Colors - Define all color options for the personalized text elements used in the designs.

  3. Motifs - Upload your motif (image) files to PRS for the personalization of designs.

  4. Product Categories - Define various categories of the designs to assist in finding and managing the design database.

  5. Sharing - Grant permission of use to specific Integrator(s).

Setting up your designs for the PRS Personalization Editor

To customize designs, PRS uses a special plug-in for Adobe Acrobat Pro. With PDFlib Block Plugin 4, Designers can draw the customization boxes for text, photos, monograms, and motifs on existing design elements. This convenient plug-in allows the PRS Personalization Editor to be easily manipulated by the Consumer while generating a Print Ready PDF of the customer's creation for export to an Integrator.
