Notes allow us to provide instruction for each unique page in a template

Always review page notes before using pages in a template. The instructions are critical to successfully editing the pages in your design with the intended output.

To access these notes:

1. At the bottom of the design window, click the arrow to unhide the page thumbnails
2. Click "Notes"
3. Notes will appear in a panel to the left of the design window
4. Repeat for any other pages you plan to use in your design

Editing

Some pages are added for transition/animation purposes only and should not be edited. These pages will have "DO NOT EDIT" in their Notes section.
