Designing your Printify Products
Posted: Tue Feb 11, 2025 5:41 am
Once you’ve chosen your supplier, click “Start Designing” and visit Printify’s mockup generator . The design tool should load instantly and give you a template to work with based on the product you choose.
There's also an option to take a tour of the AI-guided mockup generator if you're new to Printify. I recommend taking the tour if you're nervous about using the design features.

There are various ways to customize your products within the mockup generator. For example, you can:
Upload Images: Click the “upload” button to add images to your product from your device, Dropbox, or Google Drive. Printify supports JPG, PNG, and SVG file formats.
Add Text: Browse Printify's massive font library and select dentist data typefaces for quotes or statements you want to add to your products.
Add Brand Elements: The “My Library” section allows you to add brand elements (such as logos) to a collection that you can apply to all of your customized products.
Use graphics: Printify offers a wide range of pre-made graphics for everything from your products to your thank you notes and packaging tapes.
Add paid assets: Purchase pre-made design assets from Shutterstock and other design repositories (if you don't have your own assets).
Create an image with AI: Use Printify’s generative AI solution to create unique images based on text prompts. You can experiment with different styles and requirements, and even ask Printify to generate a sample prompt for you.

Printify lets you preview your designs in realistic (CMYK) and (RGB) formats , on a variety of different mockups. You can also change the background of the image mockups.
