General Tips

Copy and Pasting While Batching

DO NOT use the copy and paste function while running.

EZ Composites uses this function while running and can interfere with your batch since the computer uses the same clipboard amongst all programs.

CSV UTF-8 Settings

The data files must be saved using the UTF-8 character set.

If UTF-8 isn’t used then EZ Composites will not import non-English characters. For example, names such as Núñez and Gómez won’t import correctly. 

You choose the UTF-8 character set when exporting the data from Excel or whatever spreadsheet program you are using.

File Format Brief Overview

JPG – Standard to send to photo labs, most common image format

TIFF – transparent background, better for professional use, scanning, and print options

WEBP – transparent background, lossy and lossless compression, smaller size, best for the web

PNG – transparent background, better for web, more universal than .WEBP

PSD – Editable common Photoshop file (under 2GB)

PSB – Editable large Photoshop file (over 2GB)

sRGB Color Format

sRGB is the standard color profile and is designed to ensure that colors are represented accurately and consistently across different platforms. 

This is what printing companies use.

It’s best to ensure that all files you’re working with are using the same color format.
