Switching from Order Printer
Bring your Order Printer templates to Foliant
Paste a template from Shopify Order Printer or Order Printer Pro. Foliant converts the variables that differ, tells you exactly what it changed, and shows the result on a sample order before you save. Foliant doesn’t change anything in your old app, so you can keep using it while you switch.

Questions
- Which apps can I import templates from?
- Shopify Order Printer (including its legacy version) and Order Printer Pro. Foliant detects which one a template came from, or you can choose it.
- Does importing change the templates I already have?
- No. An import always creates a new template, and it isn’t used anywhere until you choose where it’s pre-selected.
- What if a variable doesn’t exist in Foliant?
- The report lists it under Needs attention, usually with its line number, and suggests the closest match when there is one. You fix it in the editor after saving.
- Can I keep editing in Liquid?
- Yes. On Free and Starter, imported templates stay Liquid and HTML in the code editor, with a live preview. On Growth and Scale, Foliant also places them on the visual editor when it can.
