Steps

  • Access Gang Sheet Settings – In the "Settings" menu, click on the "Gang Sheet" tab to access all the relevant settings for customizing your gang sheets. This tab allows you to configure several important options related to file handling and layout.
  • Gang Sheet File Name Format – The Gang Sheet File Name Format setting allows you to specify how the file name will appear on the gang sheet, either at the top or bottom. This can help with organizing and identifying files easily when they are saved or printed.
  • Print File Name – The Print File Name setting is a feature that you can turn on or off. Enabling this will include the file name on the printed gang sheet, which can be useful for keeping track of specific designs and versions.
  • Gang Sheet File Type – The Gang Sheet File Type defines the file format used by your printer. This is not related to the file types customers can upload, but instead, it refers to the file format that your system will send to the printer. You can choose the most compatible format for your printing workflow here.
  • Trim Empty Space at the Bottom – The Trim Empty Space at the Bottom option automatically removes any blank space at the bottom of the gang sheet, which helps optimize space and improve the overall presentation of the designs.
  • Upload to Dropbox – The Upload to Dropbox setting allows you to connect your Dropbox account with the app. When enabled, all files created through the app will be automatically uploaded to a folder in your Dropbox for easy access and sharing.
  • Connect Your Dropbox – To connect your Dropbox account, simply follow the prompts to link it with the Build A Gangsheet App. Once connected, your files will be automatically saved to Dropbox.
  • Gang Sheet Folder Path – The Gang Sheet Folder Path defines the folder name in your Dropbox where all the gang sheet files will be stored. You can customize the folder name based on your preference, making it easier to locate and manage files.
