The sell sheet editor is where you turn a template into a finished one-page pitch. It's a drag-and-drop canvas with a toolbar of editing tools, you don't need design experience to use it.

This page walks through the editor: text, images, layout, exporting, and sharing.

When the editor opens you'll see three areas:

The canvas reflects exactly what your final PDF will look like.

Click any text element to select it. Type to replace, or click again to put the cursor inside and edit normally.

The toolbar shows text controls: font family, size, weight (bold), italic, colour, alignment, and line spacing. The defaults match the template's style , change only when you need to.

Templates auto-fill text from your game's data, title, hook, mechanics, designer/artist credits, player count, duration, and MSRP. If you edit a field in the editor, that change is only on this sell sheet; it doesn't sync back to the game's main info.

Click an image to select it. The side panel shows its image source.

To replace:

Most templates have a hero spot for key art, smaller spots for component shots, and sometimes a box render. The editor doesn't enforce specific aspect ratios; very off-ratio images will be cropped to fit.

Drag any element on the canvas to move it. Drag a corner handle to resize. Hold Shift while resizing to keep the aspect ratio.

The toolbar's alignment tools let you align selected elements with each other (top, middle, bottom, left, centre, right) or distribute them evenly.

If you make a mess, every template has a Reset to template option in the side panel, it puts everything back where the template started.

The editor has a Highlight tool for drawing attention to a specific part of the sheet, a callout shape, an accent colour behind text, or a badge. Templates often include a hooked highlight in a fixed colour; you can change the colour or remove the highlight entirely.

Edits save automatically as you go. There's no manual "save" button.

If you close the browser tab mid-edit, your work is preserved, re-open the sell sheet from the Sell Sheets tab and you'll be where you left off.

Click Export (or Download PDF) in the side panel or top right.

Boardssey renders the canvas to a print-ready PDF and downloads it. The PDF is A4 or US Letter depending on the template, you can switch in the side panel under page settings.

Use this PDF to email a publisher, attach to a pitch deck, or print for a convention booth.

Some sell sheets work better as a live link than a PDF, publishers can view in their browser without downloading anything.

Click Share (or Get share link) in the side panel. Boardssey generates a public URL. Anyone with the link can view; nobody can edit. The viewer doesn't need a Boardssey account.

The share link stays live as long as the sell sheet exists. If you edit the sell sheet, the live link reflects the latest version. To stop sharing, toggle the share off, the link returns a "not found" page.

My text doesn't fit in its box. Either shorten the text, shrink the font size, or resize the box. The editor won't auto-shrink to fit, that's intentional, since auto-shrinking makes typography unpredictable.

The image I uploaded looks blurry on the PDF. Boardssey exports at print-quality DPI. Blurry usually means the source image is low-resolution. For PDFs going to publishers or print, use images at least 300 DPI at the size they appear (a 2-inch image needs about 600 px on its long side).

Can I add my own template? Custom templates are not yet supported. We're tracking it on the roadmap. For now, duplicate the closest template and customize it heavily.

Can multiple people edit a sell sheet at the same time? Two people opening the same sell sheet at once will see live updates from each other for most operations. Major layout changes can occasionally conflict; if you're co-editing closely, take turns or coordinate.

What languages does the export support? Anything you can type in the text fields will export correctly, including non-Latin scripts. Pick a font in the toolbar that supports your characters.

Can I version sell sheets the way games are versioned? Not directly. Use Duplicate (from the Sell Sheets tab) to keep a snapshot of an older version before editing.
