# Admin Settings
> Reference for every option on the per-domain settings page, from designer behaviour and PDF output to file uploads and store integration.
The [Settings Page](https://pitchprint.net/admin/settings) controls the PitchPrint app per domain and has the following settings
## Designer
Options that control how the designer behaves while your customers are editing.
Auto saves the customers designs in the background at 5 minute intervals.
Allows the submit button to skip the preview process.
Maintains the aspect ratio when resizing images.
Shows page thumbnails instead of the arrow navigation bar.
Shows the thumbnail navigation below the canvas in the centre of the page.
Allows customers to save their designs to their account and resume them at a later stage.
Hovering over an item on the canvas displays its bounds. The anchor fill color is used for this with an opacity of roughly 0.3.
Snaps items while dragging on the canvas.
Prevents the customer from adding their own colors.
Shows the input values so customers can type in their colors.
Users cannot drag to select multiple items on mobile phones.
Users cannot pinch to zoom the canvas on mobile phones.
The design clears upon reload and the customer needs to start afresh.
The customer's design is added directly to the Cart upon submission, rather than being added to the product page.
The customer must review and confirm all pages of the design before they can submit it.
Value used in encoding the design image previews. A higher value is better but requires larger bandwidth to save.
Value used for object snapping on the canvas while moving items around.
Style used for the top main buttons. You can have them as just icons, or icons and text.
Select or upload a picture you want to use as watermark while the design is being edited by users. A sample is attached, you can right click to download and use:
Upload a picture that instructs your users to click to upload on a mask shape. Only used where you have clickable mask shapes. A sample image is attached and you can right click to download and use.
## Downloads
Allows the customer to download the design as a PDF, a PNG or JPEG file depending on what the admin allows.
Gives users the option to download their designs in their account page when an order has been placed.
The watermark uploaded in the designer section is added to the PDF document when the customer downloads from inside the APP.
We disabled this feature due to complaints from customers.
Choose between either PDF only or a combination of PDF, JPEG and PNG download formats.
## Anchors
Default size of the item control anchor on the canvas. It is larger on Mobile devices.
Option for a rectangular or circular anchor.
Color for the anchor's outer stroke.
Anchor fill color.
## Text
Users can set font sizes in a more granular level.
Places new text directly on the canvas without the user clicking the canvas.
New text is resized to fit screen.
Set a fixed size for text.
Choose the default text type. There are three options: Text area, Wrapping text box and curved text.
Add the default message for a new text.
## PDF
Converts all texts into vector shapes within the PDF file.
Cut marks are printed on the final PDF file using the bleed margins you have set while creating the design.
Forces the PDF distiller to render the final PDF using only RGB Values. Kindly [read more on colors](/docs/tutorial/all-about-colors) to understand how this works.
Version 1 is based on TCPDF; Version 2 on CairoGraphics; Version 3 combines both functionalities of version 1 and 2. Kindly read more about our PDF distillers on the following link [Distilling PDF on the PitchPrint blog](https://blog.pitchprint.com/distilling-pdf/)
Set your output PDF version.
Version 2 distiller output Image profile. Default leaves image unchanged.
Version 2 distiller PDF ICC render intents.
Select ICC profile to render PDF or JPEG in.
## Canvas Lines
Clicking on transparent regions of an image will NOT select it.
The bleed area is filled with a fainted color.
Displays the bleeds lines as dashed.
Color used for the bleed lines on the canvas.
Color used for the margin lines on the canvas.
While editing, snap lines enable users to snap items to their surrounding element's bounds. This shows a dashed line on the canvas and you set that color here.
Fold lines allow you to define fold boundaries on the design, which are not printed. Sets the color used to display those lines.
## Plugins
Shows a search box in the pictures gallery.
Shows the Facebook panel under Pictures.
Shows the Instagram panel under Pictures.
We have integrated Pixabay for photo search and this allows customers to import photos from Pixabay. First, you need to register with Pixabay and generate an API Key. This is where you enter that API Key.
You also need to send Pixabay an email requesting them to enable your API Key for use via PitchPrint. By default, the API Key will not work unless they enable it for you on their end. Kindly read more here: [How to enable Pixabay image search](/docs/tutorial/how-to-enable-pixabay-image-search).
## File Uploads
Clears the uploaded image cache before each user session.
Flattens all uploaded SVG images. This gives a better result in terms of what you see is what you get but limits the ability of customers to change the uploaded shape's colors.
Applies the same effect as Flatten SVGs to other file formats like PDF, Illustrator, CorelDraw files etc. This is a highly recommended option as there are various vector files customers can upload and we can't guarantee their fidelity across board. Flattening these files upon upload ensures they get exactly what was in the file.
Max pixel value to which your file will be scaled. E.g. 300 = 3000px.
Shows a Panel where the user picks their image source when they click a mask.
When a picture is added to canvas, place it at the original size.
May make it difficult for users to find handles.
When a vector is uploaded and the font is not in your list, reject the file.
## Image DPI Check
Limits users from stretching their uploaded images beyond certain limits to maintain quality.
Sets the value for the DPI check.
## Store Settings
The designer automatically shows when your product page launches.
After a design has been customized, the app changes the product page's preview pictures to the new design's. Enabling this forces the app not to change the product page's images.
Forces customers to first edit a design before they can add to cart. In some cart frameworks, this is achieved by hiding the Add to Cart button until a design is customized.
If the **Customization Required** feature is enabled along with this option, the Customize button will be disabled instead of hidden.
Prevents the user from initially scrolling on the page when inline mode is enabled.
How the APP shows on your product page. There are three options to choose from: Mini Mode, Inline Mode and Full Window (Default).
Prepend or Append data to the project ID.
Specify acceptable file upload types for the upload section on the product page.
Specify an html element selector present on your product page where the PitchPrint designer can attach itself and load mini mode as a part of your page instead of being displayed full screen. Usually customers can send us their product page URL and we will search for a suitable element and send back its value. This is because there are different themes out there each with its own layout and naming schemes.
Specify a CSS selector on your site before which the PitchPrint buttons should be inserted.
Specify an html element selector present on your product page where the PitchPrint designer can attach itself and load inline as a part of your page instead of being displayed full screen. Usually customers can send us their product page URL and we will search for a suitable element and send back its value. This is because there are different themes out there each with its own layout and naming schemes.
Similar to the inline version described above, this allows PitchPrint to capture the price and display it within the app.
Type in the custom JavaScript you wish to run when the app is loaded. You can use this for [language customization.](/docs/tutorial/how-to-change-the-app-labels-and-texts)
Specify additional styles you wish to apply to the designer when loaded.
Add your own help content with HTML.
