Click on the General print button (alt+g) here a representation of the flatbed will appear. You can place
the image in the same spot you will place the material on the flatbed. Making sure the dimensions and
position of the image in relation with the material on the flatbed is crucial.

You can add special layers by pressing the Special Plate button (alt+p) here you can create layers of
primer, white color, gloss finish, on the whole image or in the parts with valid pixels. This is only done
when such finishes are required.



If you did create a special plate, there will be other files created next to your original one, to work
with them together, select them and click the Composition button (alt+m) organize them and
click on merge. Usually primer layers or white should be on the bottom, Gloss finish on top.
