Step 1: Maintain design proportions
Scalability only works when the proportions of the design stay the same for every size.
-
Design integrity: The width to height ratio must remain constant. This ensures that images and text scale correctly without distortion.
-
Functionality: When the proportions match, the system can offer multiple sizes. Users can then choose the size they need without rebuilding the template.
⚠️ Important: If the proportions change, the Scalable feature cannot generate reliable alternative sizes.
Step 2: Use preset and custom sizes
The Template Studio offers flexible size options for your scalable templates.
-
Preset options: A and B sizes are available as preset choices.
-
Proportion check: Preset sizes appear only when your original file matches their proportions.
-
Custom sizes: You can also add custom sizes to accommodate specific needs.
Note: Always confirm the proportions of your original document before selecting preset sizes.
Step 3: Follow best design practices
To maintain high quality across all generated sizes, use this recommended workflow.
Design big
Create your design at the largest intended size. This ensures all elements maintain sharpness and clarity.
Configure small
Add smaller sizes in the Template Studio. The system scales down high resolution designs more effectively than scaling up small designs.
Caution: Starting with a small design may result in blurry text or low quality images when scaled to larger sizes.
Tips for successful scalable templates
-
Use high resolution images to ensure quality at large sizes.
-
Keep margins and safe zones consistent across all sizes.
-
Test the generated sizes to confirm no elements shift or distort.
-
Document the intended proportions for your team to avoid accidental changes.
