Frequently Asked Questions
Are the dieline templates free?
Yes. Type your size, check the preview and download the file. There is nothing to pay and no sign-up.
Can I print the box template?
Yes. Open the PDF and print it at 100 percent (actual size, with no fit-to-page scaling) to check the size against your product or to cut a mock-up. The file is real size, in millimeters. A small box fits on one sheet; for a bigger one, print it tiled across several sheets or take the file to a print shop.
Can I open the template in Adobe Illustrator?
Yes. Open the PDF or the SVG in Illustrator and the cut and crease lines come in as lines you can edit, ready for your artwork. We do not provide native .ai files; the PDF and SVG are the files designers use for this.
Can I send this file straight to print?
Treat it as a starting point for your artwork layout. Board thickness is not compensated, and exact flap sizes depend on the production line. After you request a quote and share your dimensions, we create the final dieline and you approve it, together with your artwork, before production begins. A structural sample lets you test the fit first.
How do I measure my product?
Measure the longest, widest and tallest points of the product, in that order: length, width, height, and allow a little room if it must slide in and out. Our measuring guide shows which side is which.
Which file should I download?
PDF opens in Illustrator, Acrobat and any PDF viewer. SVG opens in Illustrator, Inkscape, Affinity and Figma. DXF is for CAD and die-making software. In all three the file is real size. The cut and crease lines (and the perforation lines, where a style has them) are on separate layers in the SVG and DXF files, and are separate colors in the PDF. The bleed line (orange) appears only when you choose a bleed. The measurement lines you see in the preview help you check the size; they are not in the downloaded files unless you tick "Add size labels to the file".
Can I make a tapered wrap band in a size that is not allowed here?
Each measurement can be between 15 and 800 mm (0.6 to 31.5 in). For anything outside that range, or a different structure, request a quote and we will draw it for you.
