There are several Nameplate Templates currently available:

• #901: Rectangle NP

• #902: Oval NP

• #903: Octagon NP

• #904: Half Round NP

• #905: Fr Stair NP

These instructions will walk you through making your own custom Nameplate design using the other templates available.

Click New Mat Design on the FrameShop Main Page.

Click Cancel on the New Openings Screen.

On the Openings Tab, bring the template #101: Rectangle template onto the Editor.

Click on the Properties Tab to edit it.

Enter the desired size for the #101: Rectangle opening.

Center the #101: Rectangle.

Bring over another opening using the desired Template for the InsetNameplate.

We will be using #613: Fr Stair Top.

Enter the desired size for the #613: Fr Stair Top.

Set the Positioning Toggle to align to the Bottom Layer.

• If you prefer to work from the Top Layer then adjust the Offset Value for the Guide below.

Click on the #101: Rectangle to select it.

Right-Click on the #101: Rectangle and select New Guide From Other.

The Add Other Guide Screen will open.

We want to place the Nameplate 1.5” from the Bottom of the opening from the Bottom Layer, so enter 1.5 in the Distance From Bottom field and click OK.

This will place a Horizontal Guide 1.5” away from the Bottom of the opening from the Bottom Layer of the #101: Rectangle.

Move the #613: Fr Stair Top so that the top of it snaps to the middle Middle Vertical Border Line and to the Horizontal Guide Line.

Now we will Group the two openings together so they can be moved as a single object.

• Note: This step is not necessary but is simply included if you would like to move it as a single object.

Select both openings and click the Group Selection button.

The openings will now be Grouped and will behave as a single opening.

The Custom Nameplate design is finished.
