Most print storefronts are e-commerce templates with a file-upload widget bolted on. That's why they convert at 0.7%. A real web-to-print storefront treats configuration, file handling, and pricing as first-class problems.
The five things shops skip
Live pre-flight feedback, configurable quantity-break pricing, saved reorder profiles, account-level pricing tiers, and a designer that doesn't break on mobile. Each one moves conversion measurably.
Why pre-flight in the browser matters
Catching a missing bleed or low-DPI image before checkout removes the #1 source of order delays and refund requests. Run pre-flight in the browser, with a fallback server-side check on submit.
