Capture — Print

Important: The number of guest-photo slots in the print layout determines exactly how many photos PixCrowd Capture takes in one photo session. A layout with four photo slots means Capture takes four photos.

Printing: PixCrowd generates a 4 × 6-inch image at 300 DPI, but does not support direct printing. Download the finished image and print it separately using your own printer or a photo-printing service.

Open the Print Layout Designer

1. In PixCrowd Hub, select your event.
2. Under Experience, open Capture.
3. Select the Print tab.

The editor shows the print layout alongside a Layers / Properties / Background panel and a Preview.

Design your photo layout

The design canvas represents the image that PixCrowd will create. The example layout in the screenshot has four guest photo slots labeled Photo 1, Photo 2, Photo 3, and Photo 4, together with an event-themed background, a decorative hero image, the event name, date, location, and heart shapes.

• Photo: Add a guest-photo placeholder to the layout. Arrange and size the photo slots to define where captured photos will appear.
• Hero: Include the event's decorative hero image when available.
• Name, Subtitle, Date, Location: Include event details in the layout.
• Shape: Add decorative shapes, such as hearts.
• Artwork: Add decorative artwork to complement the event theme.

Some toolbar controls may be unavailable depending on the current design or selection.

Guest photo slots

Each numbered photo slot represents a place where a guest's captured image will appear in the final composition. The number of photo slots controls the Capture photo sequence. For example, the four slots shown (Photo 1–4) mean Capture will take exactly four photos during that session and arrange them into one finished image. If you change the layout to three photo slots, Capture will take three photos instead. The slots shown in the editor are placeholders, not actual guest photos.

Layers

Select Layers to review the elements in the design. The panel lists items such as shapes, text, hero artwork, and guest-photo slots. Select an item to work with it, and use the available layer controls to organize the composition.

Properties

Select Properties to adjust the selected element. Available controls depend on the type of element. For example, text and decorative shapes may have different settings from photo slots. Use the canvas and preview to check each change.

Background

Select Background to manage the image or styling behind the photo slots and decorative elements. Keep enough contrast between the background, event text, and photos for the printed result to remain easy to read.

Preview your print layout

The Preview panel shows the assembled layout on 6 × 4-inch photo paper in the orientation illustrated. Use Full size to inspect the composition more closely. Confirm that photo slots, text, and decorations fit comfortably inside the print area.

Image size and printing

PixCrowd produces a print-ready 4 × 6-inch image at 300 DPI. At that resolution, the image dimensions are:

PixCrowd does not connect to or control a printer, and it does not send the image directly to a printer. To obtain a physical print, download the generated image and use a compatible photo printer or external printing service. Printer setup, paper selection, and printing are handled outside PixCrowd.
