Editor restrictions:
- Style controls: Access is limited to the colors and fonts in the selected Brand or Library, including neutral colors (black, white, transparent) and template fonts not in the brand.
- Content controls: Access is restricted to Adobe’s media and template library. Access is limited to templates and available layers, preventing new content additions.
Lock restrictions: You can choose if collaborators remixing the template can unlock locked design elements. Lock restrictions are greyed out if no elements are locked. Learn how to lock design elements.
- Style controls: Access is limited to the colors and fonts in the selected Brand or Library, including neutral colors (black, white, transparent) and template fonts not in the brand.
-
Select Save restrictions, then select Save template.
