[if-item-field prod_group =~ /Canvas/]
     <li><font face=arial size=-2>Designer: [item-field designer]</font>
     <li><font face=arial size=-2>Size: [item-field designsize]</font>
     <li><font face=arial size=-2>Mesh Count: [item-field meshsize]</font>
[else]
   <font face="arial" size=-1>[item-field comment]<br></font>
[/else]
[/if-item-field]
