Features / JETDIELINE

Files your printer can trace

Artwork and dieline go to production cleanly separated. A check report and a manifest record what was exported and at which version.

Separate files for print and cutting die

You export the artwork as a PDF and the dieline as its own file. The dieline is available as PDF, SVG and DXF. In addition, the app generates a combined PDF for the printer and PDF/X-4 with its own ICC profile.

Check report, manifest and approval versions

The check report lists all findings and justified deviations. The export manifest records template, version, dimensions and files. Approval versions with revisions show which version was agreed.

Prepare the inquiry for your printer

An inquiry package bundles files and report into one ZIP archive and creates an email draft. You can open the dieline directly in Illustrator, Affinity or Inkscape if you want to carry on working there.

Frequently asked questions

Which line types does the dieline contain?

Cut, crease and perforation lines are held separately and clearly named. That lets the printer assign them to their tooling.

Does the app send files to the printer itself?

No. The app does not access the network. It creates the package and an email draft, and you send both yourself.

What you should know

JetDieline supports you with construction, design and checks. It does not replace approval by your printer or a built sample. On-screen and 3D displays are not colour-accurate.
