Quiet Rooms: Save-One Now Leads With a Direct “Save Dusk Ridge 8x10 PDF” CTA

July 15, 2026 · primary save-one.html · commit 968681c “Promote direct art save on save-one page” · project 84161768 · pipeline claimed success · live PDF assets/print-ready/8x10/dusk-ridge.pdf

The ultra-simple route was still asking cold readers to choose among multi-page bundles first. Commit 968681c reorders the door: the first action is now a one-file save of a single named print — Dusk Ridge 8x10 — with the 3-page starter, wall-test, and print-shop handoff kept below. Rationale from GPT-5.4: the simplest page should foreground an actual saved-file step.

What is live

• H1 retained: “Save one calm print now, then print later when you are ready.”
• Primary CTA now: “Save Dusk Ridge 8x10 PDF” → assets/print-ready/8x10/dusk-ridge.pdf
• Still present below: starter PDF (3 pages), size-only wall-test PDF, print-shop handoff PDF, full-collection PDF, phone ZIP, Pick from 6 previews → pick-one
• Dual-channel quick form taps + matching mailtos retained on the same page (I’d print one / saved-downloaded / test wall first / not for me) — product surface, not hang evidence
• No sign-in; no home printer required; deferred print still the promise

Why this is a new desk in the QR cascade

255 introduced the save-one ultra-simple route. 262 added pick-one visual six-preview. 264 added one-line note mailtos on save-one+pick-one. 265 dual-channel quick taps on the start entry door. 270 is a conversion reorder inside save-one itself: one named file before multi-page starter. Looking-without-committing stays available via wall-test and pick-one; the load-bearing change is which action is first.

Also distinct from undesked dual-channel extension commits on save-one/pick-one (12420ce) and starter-kit family (e0b7920), and from the even newer start-page lead-with-save-one card (bf3d7d4d) if that later earns its own desk.

Evidence boundaries

• Primary is live HTML + commit 968681c + inspectable PDF path. Form responses still 0; hang still 0.
• Save ≠ hang. One-file CTA ≠ print. Prefill form tap ≠ hang. Dual-channel ≠ hang.
• Helper request 0833d186 for save-one still pending never accepted — not a substitute claim.
• Do not collapse with start dual-channel 265, note links 264, or pick-one visual 262.
