Collections

Collections are groups of colors that can be chosen for use with text elements in a blank or composition. This is used to allow the end customer to change the color they want to use for personalization, but restricts their choices to those colors within the selected collection.

Collections are listed in the left column and display the number of fonts contained within them in parentheses.
