1. The Chips (Most Important)

Chip A (Blue) — Your Design (Source): This is YOUR artwork. Upload an image from your device, create text with a font, bring one back from the History panel, or receive one from a catalog page. Chip A is fully flexible — you can modify it as much as you want.

Chip B (Orange) — The Product (Receiver): This is the physical product that will receive your design. Click it to open the catalog and pick a product (wood, leather, acrylic, T-shirt, etc.) or upload a product photo. Chip B is protected: its shape is never changed — it only accepts your design on top.

How to combine Chip A over Chip B:

1. Load your design into Chip A and your product into Chip B.
2. The flow indicator turns into a green double arrow — "READY TO MERGE".
3. The Composer appears on the display: drag the blue dot to move your design, drag the corners to scale it, and drag the round handle to rotate it (pinch with two fingers on mobile).
4. When it looks right, press the big round NovaAI button — your Chip A design is merged onto the Chip B product.

Lock button (Chip A): Keeps your design loaded while you switch products or modes — perfect for trying the same design on several products.

2. Creating Text (Quotes + Fonts + TextPreview)

1. Always use quotation marks! In the prompt box, type your text BETWEEN QUOTES — for example "MariLuz". The quotes tell NovaAI: "this is text to render", not an instruction.
2. Choose a font in the Fonts panel (1000+ fonts). The preview box under the selector shows how the font looks. To add your own fonts, enable Admin inside the Fonts panel, then drop your .ttf/.otf files in the upload zone or press Select Fonts.
3. Press the green TextPreview button: your text is rendered with the selected font and appears on the display so you can see exactly how it will look BEFORE generating. It is also added to Chip A as an image (green "T" thumbnail), ready to combine with Chip B.
4. You can create several texts — each one becomes a "T" thumbnail inside Chip A. Click a thumbnail to activate it, or its red X to delete it.

3. Modifying Chip A with a Prompt

With an image loaded in Chip A, type an instruction WITHOUT quotes in the prompt box — for example: make it look vintage, add a sunset background, turn it into a pencil sketch — then press the NovaAI button. NovaAI applies the change and updates Chip A with the modified image.

Rule of thumb: text WITH quotes = create text. Text WITHOUT quotes = instruction to modify the Chip A image.

Fidelity++ (checkbox under the prompt box) keeps the result as close as possible to your original image.

4. The Main Buttons

NovaAI (big round button): The generator. With Chip A + Chip B loaded, it merges your design onto the product. With only Chip A and a prompt instruction, it modifies your design. This is the button that produces the final result on the display.

TextPreview (green): Renders your quoted text with the selected font and shows it on the display BEFORE you generate — so you can check spelling, size and style first.

Use As Chip A (green, on the display): Takes whatever is currently on the display (a result or a composition) and sends it back into Chip A — so you can keep editing it or apply it to another product.

Remove BG: Removes the Chip A background when needed. In Engraving mode, Chip A changes visually and automatically according to Chip B: Wood, Leather and 3D-print plastics use Stencil; Acrylic uses Negate.

PhoneSkin: Turns your Chip A design into a custom phone-skin layout.

Modes (top): Engraving (laser on wood, leather, acrylic), Sublimation (full color on fabric and mugs), Stickers (sticker sheet canvas), 3D Printing. Choose the mode that matches your product.

Clear: Resets everything (chips, prompt and display) to start over.

5. Placing an Order

1. Generate your result and check it on the display.
2. Press Order Now — the order page opens with your final image.
3. Fill in the customer information and choose the shipping and payment method.
4. Press Place Order and download your receipt.

6. History Panel + Use As Chip A

Every image NovaAI generates is saved in the History panel for 24 hours. Open it with the History button.

• Use -> A: sends that image back into Chip A so you can reuse it or combine it again.
• Enlarge: views the image full size.
• X deletes one item; Clear empties the whole history.
• Auto history (checkbox under the prompt box) opens the panel automatically after each result.

Tip: the green Use As Chip A button on the display does the same with the CURRENT result — perfect for chaining edits (generate → Use As Chip A → modify again).
