An alternative to supplying content files (by uploading them from your computer or downloading them from the cloud) while creating a product is to install and use EFI PrintMessenger. PrintMessenger converts documents on your computer to high-quality PDFs and uploads them to the site.
PrintMessenger offers the following benefits:
● PrintMessenger connects the Print command in your application (for example, Microsoft® Word or Adobe® InDesign®) to the storefront site – you simply select PrintMessenger as the "printer" when working with a document in the application on your computer.
● Your documents are converted to high-quality PDFs on your own computer to ensure accurate printing. You can preview the PDFs before uploading them.
● You can upload several files at a time or combine files into a single file before uploading it. (For example, if a brochure you want to print is made up of three files, you can combine them into one file – in the order you want.)
● After your files are uploaded to the storefront site, you are taken to the site where you can immediately add the files to products that you order.
● The files that you upload are saved in your personal library on the site so that you can select them when ordering products in the future.
Your first step is to install PrintMessenger (a one-time procedure), after which you can begin to use it to convert documents to PDFs and upload them to the site.
