​

​

​
Blend Modes

Blend Modes are used to blend the Object with the background or other Objects. You can choose from a variety of Blend Modes like Multiply, Screen, Overlay etc.

​
Max Text Count

This is used to limit the number of characters that can be entered in a Text Object.

​
Chain Colors

​
Advanced Settings

Under the Advanced tab, you can find additional settings for the Object as shown in the image below:

​
Hide from client

When enabled, the Object will not be visible to the customer in the Editor, but it will be printed in the output PDF.

​
Fill entire Page

When enabled, the Object will be stretched to fill the entire page.

​
PDF Layers

This option is allows you to set the Object to be printed on a separate layer in the PDF output. But first, you will need to create the PDF Layers by going to the Designs Tab and creating a Layer.

​
Overprint Fill

This option sets the Fill-overprint value for the Object in the PDF output.
Overprint in PDF objects allows overlapping colors to blend when printed, instead of knocking out the background, ensuring specific visual effects or accurate spot color reproduction.

​
Overprint Stroke

This option sets the Stroke-overprint value for the Object in the PDF output.

​
Overprint Mode

This option sets the Overprint Mode for the Object in the PDF output. The Mode can be either 0 or 1.

Mode 0 (Default): Overprinting is disabled. The overlapping object knocks out (removes) the underlying content, fully replacing it with the top object’s color.

Mode 1: Overprinting is enabled. The overlapping object blends with or is added to the underlying content, preserving the background’s visibility where applicable.

​
CMYK Value

This option allows you to set the CMYK color value for the Object. This is useful when you want to set a specific color for the Object in the PDF output. This value overrides the color set in the Editor. Be careful when using this option as it will override the color set in the Editor and the Object will look different in the Editor and the PDF output.

​
Spot Name

This option allows you to set the Spot Color name for the Object. This is useful when you want to set a specific color name for the Object in the PDF output. This value overrides the color set in the Editor.

​
Preset Options

This is where you assign preset values to the selected Object. Presets allows you to currate and limit certain resources like Color, Graphics that will be permitted for the specific Object. You can also use the Presets to limit the controls that can be used to modify the Object.
