How To Get Started With Report Covers

In this article, you'll learn the basics of creating Report Covers with ClickDesigns.

STEP 1:

After you've logged into your ClickDesigns account and are on your dashboard, click on the "Templates" section at the top of your navigation bar.

From the "Templates" section, choose the "Covers" category.

The Covers section includes different sub-categories of templates for you to choose from and work with. The following Covers categories include Books, Reports, and Magazines.

STEP 2:

From here, select "Reports."

With the Report templates, you have the option to either Start From Scratch or choose from any of the ready-made templates.

For this tutorial, let's try utilizing a template to showcase how easy it is to create a Report Cover on the go. To do this, simply hover over a template you wish to edit and click on the "Edit" icon.

STEP 3:

This is going to open up the ClickDesigns Editor. From here, you can change any and all aspects of your ready-made template to your liking.

For instance, we can start by changing the image of the template. To do this, click on the "Image" tab - where you can either Upload, Search, or choose from the Library or Cut Outs. Choose what fits best to upload to your canvas.

Next, let's try editing the text to our design. To do this, the "Text" tab allows you to customize, alter, and arrange the text to your design as you'd like.

STEP 4:

Now, let's try changing the background of our design. On the "Backgrounds" tab, you can color your background to your liking - and even add gradients!

When finished with your edits, click "Save & Exit."

Here, you can preview your current Report Cover.

Click on "Save" to finalize your edits. Clicking on "Exit" will bring you back to your ClickDesigns dashboard (with your Cover still saved!) and clicking on "Export" will export your Magazine Cover to your local drive.

And Voila! That's how easy it is to seamlessly create and edit Report Covers on ClickDesigns.
