When you click on Next, PrintShop Mail Design will prepare the files and then send them to PrintShop Mail Web (refer to the
PrintShop Mail Design User Guide for more details on this process). Note that by default any new document you send to Print-
Shop Mail Web is disabled so you will need to enable it for clients to use them. If you create a new publication type or a com-
pany, they will also be disabled by default.
Images VS Image Collections
When it is necessary to display different images in the same location of your document, and your image set is limited to a few
repeating images, you can use Image Collections in order to present a list of available images to clients ordering the document
as part of an order.
In order for an image collection to be used, you will need to create an image box in your PrintShop Mail Design document. The
expression for the image format must also be specifically refer to a database field, even if it doesn't exist. You can simply edit
the expression and type in a field name such as [MyImageField] to do this. Once your document is ready, send it to PrintShop
Mail Web.
On the PrintShop Mail Web side, you can create a new image collection using the "Collections" (page 107) menu link. Make
sure the collection is assigned to the same company as your uploaded document. In your document's properties in the "Pub-
lication Types" (page 85) menu, go in the User Input fields section. Click on the field name that corresponds to the one you
entered in the image's expression (for example, MyImageField) and change the Item Type to Collection. Choose the image col-
lection you created, and click Save.
