- Toolbar - The toolbar is where you can adjust your view of the canvas with various Zoom tools.
- Left Side Panel - This panel shows a traffic light representation of your progress through each page of your design. Inside of this panel is also where you will find the Crop Photo Tool, the Floor Plan Fit Tool, fields to adjust Fixed/Formatted Text, and the Change Page Layout button.

Adding/Cropping Photos with ePrint
ePrint gives you the control to place, crop, and change your photos with a simple click of the mouse!
Adding Photos
Adding photos in ePrint is as easy as can be! Simply click directly on the photo frame you’d like to place a photo into. The contact sheet of photos associated with the property will pop up for you to choose from. Click on the image you’d like to use and the photo will automatically fill the frame proportionally (long edges will be cropped).
ProTip: Photos can also be added/changed by clicking on the camera icons along the left side panel. You can filter the view of your contact sheet down to just your Print Favs or Tour Favs.
Cropping Photos
Photos can be cropped by clicking on the Crop Photo Tool that appears under your photo selection on the Left Side Panel. The blue crop box will maintain the aspect ratio of the photo frame so that no photos are stretched or skewed.
Adding Floor Plans
Adding floor plans in ePrint is as easy as can be! Simply click directly on the photo frame you’d like to place a floor plan into. The contact sheet of photos associated with the property will pop up for you to choose from. Click on the image you’d like to use and the floor plan will automatically fill the frame proportionally (long edges will be cropped). Use the Floor Plan Fit tool to fit the whole image in the frame.
ProTip: Floor Plans can also be adjusted using the Crop Photo tool found on the left side panel.
Changing Page Layouts with ePrint
HomeVisit has built numerous text and photo layout options to offer variety and customization.

Adding/Editing Text with ePrint
There are 2 types of text fields throughout your ePrint template. Fixed/Formatted Text fields and Rich-Text Editable fields.
Editing Fixed/Formatted Text fields
These fields display content pulled directly from the HomeVisit system, such as: Property Address, City, State and Agent Name, Agent Email, Agent Phone. Enter or edit text directly in these fields on the Left Side Panel. Tab or click outside the field to instantly update the text on the document page.
ProTip: The content of these fields is customizable but the size and formatting of this text is fixed and uneditable.
Adding Text to Rich-Text Editable fields
Text blocks on your document that say “Click Here To Enter…” are Rich-Text Editable fields. Text can be added to these fields by clicking directly on the Text Block in the document. You can paste or type directly into the Rich-Text Editor pop-up.
ProTip: Text can also be added/changed by clicking on the paper icons along the Left Side Panel.
Navigating the Rich-Text Editor pop-up
The Rich-Text Editor pop-up has the following features. Your text will not copy-fit to the space provided, use the Font Size and Spacing tools to adjust as needed.
