3. Select Your Cover and Cover Options
Once you’ve opened up the Renzo section your first step will be to select either a Hard Cover or Block Cover, the size and the amount of spreads that will be in your album. For this example I will be selecting a Hard Cover 10x10 Renzo with 10 Spreads.

When you’ve made your product selection the options tab will show you your choices for the cover. Here you can select your photo cover type if you uploaded an image for your cover. You can also select your cover material, deboss options, and end sheet colour. Make sure to select all your available options before adding the cover to your cart.

4. Upload or Design Your Pages
Now that we have our cover out of the way the next step is to design our pages. First thing you need to do is to move over to ‘Step 2' Pages’ and to select the size you used for your cover. You can either design your pages through a Smart Album app like Fundy or Pixellu or you can use our templates which are the options beneath the first page selection.

If you designed your spreads outside of ROES, use the top page option titled ‘<size> Renzo Page Spread <size> Lustre’, drag and drop your designed page and click add to cart. If you need colour correction, please select that in the Options tab.

Or if you want to design in ROES, select one of the other page options. The boxes in each page show the photo placement on the page and the left-side number represents how many photos can be placed in that template. For this example I’m going to select one of 2-1 pages and one of the 3-1 pages.

5. Send in Your Order
Once you’ve uploaded all your pages, go to your shopping cart and double check that all your pages are in the correct order. In the Options, you’ll need to select a few things before sending in your order such as your box colour and if you need to upgrade your pages with a different paper type. Make sure to let us know if you have moved and need to change your address and also input any extra notes for us if need be in the special instructions.
