Step 2: Add Your Product Data

The foundation of any great price list is accurate data. Populate the software with your products, SKUs, prices, and photos. You can do this by:

  • Using the powerful Import Wizard for large Excel/CSV files.
  • Dragging and dropping cells from an open spreadsheet.
  • Adding products manually.

Step 3: Open the Price List Maker

Once your data is loaded, go to the main "Publication" tab and click the "Price List" button. This launches the Template Manager, your creative hub for document design.

Step 4: Select a Template

This is where you decide the look and feel. To make a price list with photos, choose an illustrated template. For a more data-dense version, select a text-only layout. Both are created with the same ease.

  • Change fonts and colors to align with your brand guidelines.

Step 6: Generate and Share

With your design complete, click "Create" to generate the final document. The software will instantly produce a high-quality PDF. You can then save it, print it, or publish it online for easy sharing.
