Platforms
This page contains a series of links to pre-designed templates and materials available on various platforms. These platforms include Adobe Express, Microsoft Word, Microsoft PowerPoint, and our online storefront hosted by Foremost Graphics, a local professional printing company.
Adobe Express
Grand Valley students and employees have university-wide access to Adobe Express, a simple-to-use web-hosted design platform that allows users to create a variety of items used in everyday communications. We've developed a brief instructional page to help you familiarize yourself with the platform. Note: a valid GVSU network login is required to view the instructions.
Foremost Online Storefront
For professionally printed results, we strongly suggest taking advantage of the items available for customization and ordering in our online storefront. We've partnered with Foremost Graphics to offer a variety of customizable printed items, from postcards to brochures to retractable banners.
If you’re new to the online store, you will need to create a username and password in order to access the site and its content. A valid GVSU faculty/staff email address is required to create your free account.
