Prepare & upload design files

The Design Library: where your print files and mockup images live.

The Design Library in the left sidebar is where you store your design files. Each design has a design_sku to use when creating an order or importing. One design can be used for every variant of a product.

1
Open the Design Library

Left sidebar โ†’ Design Library.

2
Create a new design

Pick a POD product, then upload the print file (artwork) for at least one print area.

3
Attach a mockup image

A mockup is a preview image you attach yourself โ€” the system does not generate mockups. You can save a design without one, but items using it cannot go into production until it has a mockup.

4
Save

The design is saved with a design_sku (auto-generated if you leave it blank) for reuse.

No mockup โ†’ cannot go into production
A design without a mockup shows a "No mockup" badge in the Library. Add the mockup first so the order does not get stuck at approval.
Prepare print-ready files
Prepare files at the size and resolution the printer requires so the print is sharp and you avoid reworks.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the system build the mockup from my design?

No. A mockup is a preview image you (or a designer) attach to the design. Lenful has no auto mockup renderer.

Can one design be used for multiple variants?

Yes โ€” one design applies to every variant of that same product (not to other products).
