Yes, please welcome to inquire for a demo session. We also provide the necessary documentation to help you understand how to add products and configure them, add fonts, artwork, etc.

What is the difference between a standalone designer and a shop solution?

Standalone LiveArt Designer is an SDK (software kit) that you can deploy without any eCommerce website. It features an admin panel to manage designer assets such as fonts, gallery artwork, or products and collect design submissions from customers. You can then contact your customers or business partners to proceed with the payment or order confirmation manually. The standalone version of LiveArt requires additional programming to add it to ERP or the website.

The Shop solution features LiveArt Designer pre-integrated into ready Shopify, WooCommece, or Magento eCommerce website. The customers will add designs to the shopping cart for an automated checkout. With this version, there is no need to contact your customers manually, plus you will be able to see ready orders (along with production-grade output) in the admin panel.

Feel free to contact our sales team to advise the best fit for your business.

Do you offer customization to your products?

Yes, we offer custom development allowing you to build your own designer or customize the one off the shelf. See more information about our services.

What output does LiveArt designer provide?

LiveArt produces vector SVG that contains a preview of the product, the design itself, or both. SVG stands for Scalable Vector Graphics and is a universal vector format that can be previewed on the web, published as PDF right from your browser, or converted into a number of other formats using various tools, including Adobe Illustrator, CorelDraw, Inkscape, ImageMagick or online services like CloudConvert. Contact our product managers to get advice for your particular business.

PDF production relies on third-party software that requires a virtual private or dedicated server to be run on. In most cases, it requires a Docker application available on it so that you will be able to launch our output processing application.

Yes, it’s easy to set up a server for the trial version, which you can download from our Github at https://github.com/liveart/liveartjs.
