Canva is a free online content creation/ graphic design tool that (in my personal opinion) is more user-friendly and intuitive than Photoshop or Illustrator. Is there a fee to use Canva? No! They do offer an upgraded PRO (paid) version, but that is NOT required to edit this document. You only need the FREE version. How do I edit these forms for my business? To edit these forms you will be required to create a FREE Canva account (if you don't already have one). Once your account is created, you can edit this document 100%! (fonts, colors, make text changes, upload your own business logo etc.). You will be able to save the changes and print your forms in multiple formats. (I recommend saving and downloading them as High Quality PDF Prints in Canva before you print them out.) Does Canva have an app that I can use to make edits directly on my phone? Yes, Canva has an app, however, the app can be very glitchy at times so I recommend using a computer for best results. I don't have a printer. Can I use this Canva template as a digital product on my iPad? Yes! After you are done editing the form in Canva, save them as PDFs and then you can upload them directly into apps like GoodNotes and Noteshelf or send as email attachments. _________________________ ><><><><><><><><><><>< When you purchase this template, you are acknowledging that: - I am not a lawyer - I have no legal training or qualifications - The files sold on this site should not be considered legal advice.
