# Getting started

> From nothing to a first gang sheet order: create the design in the dashboard, set the film, connect the price, assign it to a product and test it.

This walkthrough gets a 22" DTF gang sheet selling on your store. It
assumes Print.App is installed on your platform — see
[Installation](/docs/installation) if not — and the new editor is on.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Turn on the new editor">
    In the dashboard open **Settings** and switch on **Switch to new
    Editor**. Gang sheets need it; without it the design type is not
    offered.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Create the Gang Sheet design">
    Go to **Designs**, choose **Create New Design** and pick **Gang
    Sheet**. The configuration panel opens instead of the studio — a
    gang sheet has no canvas to draw on.

    Give it a title customers will recognise, such as *22" DTF Gang
    Sheet*, and leave **Builder mode** on *Gang sheet*.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Set the film">
    Under **Film and billing** enter your roll: width (22"), the
    longest sheet you will print on one piece of film (120"), the
    shortest you sell (3") and how you bill it (per inch). Under
    **Nesting** set the gap you need to cut pieces apart; 0.125" is a
    safe start.

    The defaults match a common 22" DTF setup, so this step is often
    just a check.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Choose the quality floor">
    Under **Quality** keep **Minimum DPI** at 300 and **Low DPI blocks
    checkout** on unless you are happy to print soft artwork. The
    builder tells customers the exact size that would pass, so a block
    is rarely a dead end.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Connect the price">
    Under **Pricing** set **Price target** to `po:dimensions` and
    **Price display source** to `po:price`. Then, in Print Options,
    create an option set from the *DTF Gang Sheet* template, adjust the
    per-foot rates, and publish it to the product.

    No Print Options? Point **Price target** at your theme's quantity
    input instead and price the product per inch. [Pricing](/docs/gangsheet/pricing)
    compares the paths.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Assign the design to a product">
    Save the design, then assign it to the product the same way as any
    other design. The product page shows the Print.App button; clicking
    it opens the builder.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Place a test order">
    Open the product, add two or three PNGs, set sizes and quantities
    and watch the sheet pack and the price move. Save, add to cart and
    check out. Then open the order's project and download the print
    file — you should see a transparent PDF the width of your film.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Optional extras

* **Design tools.** Text, gallery, image edit and outline are on by default.
  Switch off any you would rather not support; the buttons disappear.
* **Welcome message.** The text in the empty list before the first upload.
  Use it for file advice: transparent PNGs at 300 dpi, no white boxes.
* **Graphics for the gallery.** Assign a profile with graphics folders to
  the design and the Gallery button lists them. See
  [Assign resources](/docs/guides/designs/assign-resources).
* **Transfers by size.** Duplicate the design, switch **Builder mode**, and
  price the product by area. See [Pricing](/docs/gangsheet/pricing#path-3--transfers-by-size).
