Adobe Express: Brands

Overview

Adobe Brands allows you to create consistent, branded content. You can add logos and color schemes to maintain a branded look to your project.

Considerations

• These instructions are for the Adobe Express online version, to which all UWEC members have access. 
  
  • Even if you enter Express through the CC suite, it will take you to the online version.
• If you create a Brand on your UWEC account that you intend to use after you leave the university, you will have to transfer it to a separate account.
• To use the UWEC Brand built within Express, please see the Adobe Express: How to Access the UWEC Brand KB article. 

Methods

Creating a brand

1. From the home page or within a project, click on the “Brands” tab, located in the left sidebar.
2. Click “Create Brand” and “Manual setup” from the dropdown menu.
3. Name your brand and click “Create.”
4. Click on the “Add” button to add logos, color palettes, fonts, and graphics specific to your brand.
   1. You can add a logo, and Express will suggest a color palette based on the logo photo.

Sharing a brand with team members

To share using Express, you will have to share with individuals. You will not be able to share with an existing UWEC group.

1. Within the Brands tab in Express, hover over the brand you would like to share and click “Share.”
2. Enter the email address of the user you would like to share with. This field will automatically search the UWEC directory, but you can also add non-UWEC email addresses as well.
3. From the drop-down menu next to the email, select your desired level of access. The options are “Can view & use” and “Can edit.”
4. Click “Invite to view and use” or “invite to edit” depending on the level of access you chose.
5. This will send an email to the receiving address inviting them to access your file.
