Frontify supports three template types:

• Digital: Built for flexible, ongoing editing — pages can be reordered, duplicated, deleted, or copied between templates. Best for marketing assets, presentations, social media, and digital campaigns.

• Print: Built for professional print production, with PDF presets, InDesign Export with Changes, bleeds, crop marks, spreads, and CMYK color support. Best for packaging, brochures, and editorial layouts.

• Motion: Adds lightweight animation on top of the digital workflow, created from a single Figma frame. Best for display ads, social campaigns, and other animated marketing assets.
