I have used word docs and pdfs. You can always say "if the link isn't clickable just copy and paste it into your browser. You are allowed to upload up to 5 zipped files at a time each file up to 20mb for a listing so depending on what you are zipping, you could split them up. It will show the customer how many files to download too. If you decide to host elsewhere you won't be able to offer your digital items as digital downloads as you will have to email the customer the link to download them which means you will have to add them as physical items.
For alternative host you could try Dropbox Gmail based which is free and you can then send a download link from there to your customer. When this happens for me, I have to send the file directly to them via email. I really wish the file size on Etsy would be larger because it can be quite inconvenient. Hey Mini, I was having this problem too, but then I was also having problems getting the parts top upload.
So why I did was get a zip utility Keka on the MAC which will achieve the file into several zips under whatever size you restrict it to. Etsy still wouldn't let me upload all of the parts, so i zipped each part again to become it's own archive.
Then they uploaded with no problem. Makes it a two step process but better than the alternative. Also, do you think a supply store will suffice for printing? Can you recommend a good online printing vendor? Can you give me an estimate of the pricing at millerslab. Simple birthday invites. For baby shower invites is it typical to have color on the backside of the invite documents? Or do most people print on the front and leave the back blank and white? Hello, I am interested in purchasing a PDF file for backdrop.
Where are some places that would print big back drops, maybe 6ft by 6ft? Hi, Great post! Thank you for taking the time to read :. Hi Caren, Thanks for reading! Double-check with the designer on which mode he or she used, which may be the culprit.
Output devices complicate the printing process even further, as different devices are configured to interpret color in different ways. In other words, two different printers could print the exact same file, but the resulting piece will look different because of the way each printer is configured. The configurations of the Staples printer could also be contributing to why the color looks orange on screen but prints gray. Staples uses basic office printers, so I recommend printing invitations at a professional printing shop, where the equipment is more likely to be configured correctly.
I also recommend that clients print a sample of the invitation before printing the entire batch. As for combining two invitations on one page, that can easily be done with a JPEG. If nothing else, the designer can quickly add two invitations per page, if he or she is willing. Hope this helps!
What would be considered a local professional printing shop? I ordered wedding invitations through etsy and have a jpg and pdf file. Hi Brooke, congratulations on your upcoming wedding! Can you recommend a good one? I want to be able to offer a metallic font option as well.
Haha thanks in advance! Hey there, sorry for my delayed response! Adobe InDesign and Illustrator are two programs commonly used by designers for print or illustrative work.
Both are professional, industry-standard design software that non-designers generally have no interest investing in or learning, and because it sounds like you are still testing the waters, so to speak, I would recommend practicing with something more simple, like canva.
As for printing gold foil, the process for doing so is more complicated than general printing and requires special equipment. Research professional, online printing services that offer the gold foil option to see which gives you the best value for your money. When purchasing an invite from etsy, if the image is a Disney image, am I able to print online or thru a local printer? Or must I only print at home because the image is copyright. Hello there — thanks so much for reading and taking the time to reach out!
Etsy sellers should never sell invitations that contain third-party artwork unless they have obtained a commercial license to do so. Otherwise it is considered copyright infringement, and the copyright holder has every right to sue. As a result, many professional printers do require that a client shows proof of permission before they will print the file.
Let's start with the iPad first, but the process is exactly the same for an iPhone. There is only a slight difference in how things are displayed on your screen because the iPhone is much smaller. When you purchase digital files like clip art, printables, or digital planners from Etsy, you are immediately sent an email when your payment clears. Just like in the photo below.
This email confirms your purchase and gives you a link to download your digital files. Sounds perfect, right? If you have the Etsy app installed on your device, the email takes you to the app where you will see the download links. You can't download your Etsy digital files from the Etsy app.

Still, passive income is never really passive. Customers often need help and support, especially when it comes to figuring out how to download their digital file after purchase.
I had thought my follow-up email containing a polite thank you, a coupon for future purchase, and offer to help with any concerns would be a welcoming gesture of open communication. Instead of taking her anger personally, I sent instructions on how to download, as well as a screen capture of the action required, because I knew she was obviously frustrated in not receiving her purchase immediately.
Sure enough, she apologized and explained there were no instructions from Etsy. As a seller, I should not be putting the onus on my client to research how to access their purchase.
Now I include the message below in all my follow-up emails. This also helps clarify that the purchase is digital, and will not be physically shipped to them.
My canned response includes a screen capture with circled areas to ensure they know where to look — a picture really is worth a thousand words. Please help. I purchased on Etsy a pdf crochet pattern. I was logged in when I ordered it. The seller tried to send me a link through my email and I keep getting g oops something went wrong page! Please help I would like my pattern.
