Using ‘copyfit’ in your designs means that as the end user types it automatically shrinks the text (and leading) to fit the space available. Use this wisely. Don’t just put copyfit on everything. Thing about where it is likely the end user may need to type more and add copyfit to this layer.

To do so, simply add ‘c_â? to the start of the layer name, for instance ‘c_Nameâ? (see left image below). If you don’t set the layer as copyfit, we’ll just tell the user they’ve typed too much and ask them to type less (see right image below).

IMPORTANT – Do not use more than one font type or style when using copyfit.

For an onscreen demonstration of this process, watch the How to Use Copyfit in Your Designs video.

Flyerzone have just announced the launch of their brand new image library live today on Flyerzone.co.uk.

Flyerzone is the first UK website to start selling your TemplateCloud designs. This means that end customers can now access and use over 14 million Fotolia images for FREE when editing your TemplateCloud designs!

The new Fotolia image library allows clients much greater choice and flexibility when editing and using your design for their own business. Previously clients could either choose your suggested image or upload their own image from their computer when using and buying your design.

This new flexibility and vast choice of images means a greater chance of your designs being purchased by end customers and more potential royalties for you to earn.

Don’t forget to make sure you are using Fotolia images in your designs, you can find out more about how to do this by watching our demo video here.
