Frequently asked questions

What is web-to-print software?

Web-to-print software lets customers personalise a printed product in the browser, see the price and order it, while the shop receives a print-ready file with the order. Cmsmart builds this on WooCommerce with the Cmsmart Product Designer plugin.

Can I try the Cmsmart product designer before buying?

Yes. Create a free Cmsmart account and start the free licence from your dashboard (Products), then install the plugin on your WooCommerce store and test real orders.

What if my print shop needs features the plugin does not have?

Cmsmart builds them as custom development: pricing rules, proof approval flows, MIS or print API integrations, new product types. Describe what you need in the quote form and the web-to-print desk will scope it.
