Printing Limitations
There are some limitations when printing on Smore.
1. Background fade out
When printing a newsletter (or viewing a newsletter in email), you will notice that the background image will fade depending on the length of the newsletter. We designed it this way so that instead of a photo abruptly ending as it reaches its natural end, it will instead go into a fade effect. Please note that this does not occur when you view your newsletter on our website because the newsletter itself moves up and down against the image background, and the photograph itself stays in place.
If this is an issue for you, we recommend using the "Minimal" design theme backgrounds. These backgrounds are patterns and will repeat themselves when printed or emailed.
2. Page Break
Sometimes, based on the amount of content you include, a newsletter can be longer than one printed sheet of paper and the newsletter may break or interrupt the text at the end of the page.
To alleviate these issues when printing, we recommend downloading your newsletter as a JPEG and then scaling the newsletter for printing.
3. Only the owner of the newsletter has the option to print it out
Technically, someone who is not the owner of the newsletter can print out the newsletter, but it will not be formatted properly.
Downloading as a JPEG
Premium users can download a JPEG image of their newsletter and scale it to be printed on one page. For more information, see our Help Center article Downloading a newsletter as a JPEG.
