New Slate Feature: PSD Templates!

Slate's new PSD Templates feature is here!

Our new PSD Templates feature adds a game-changing level of functionality to the Slate platform and further streamlines the workflow between design and social media teams. Your team can now take PSD files and upload them directly to Slate, turning them into easy to use templates for content creators in the Slate mobile app.

Getting Started

To get started with templates, you need to ensure your PSD files are formatted correctly before you upload them into Slate’s web dashboard. (Check out more about compatibility requirements here). From there follow these three simple steps to start using templates!

1. Upload your PSD file to your Slate Web Portal

Once you have confirmed that your PSD file meets compatibility standards, head to the "Templates" tab in your team's Web Portal. Upload your PSD files by dragging and dropping or manually selecting your file & publish the changes to your account!

Helpful Hint: Make sure any fonts that are editable in your PSD file, are also uploaded to your team's Web Portal!
