JETDIELINE / Frequently asked questions
Here you will find the key answers about templates, design, checks, export, and the app's limits. Each answer links to the relevant feature page.
Yes. There is a free trial for 7 days, available in all countries. Which purchase options apply afterwards has not been announced yet.
The app's interface and help have been checked in German, English and Turkish. Further languages are in preparation. This website is available in more languages than the app.
Each template has a sensible dimension range. If an input makes the construction unusable, the check shows a finding with an explanation. Confirm the actual manufacturability with your printer.
The constructions are original templates. For corrugated board, some are based on common FEFCO styles and resemble them. The binding reference is your printer's dimension sheet.
No. You can design the artwork in the app or export the dieline and continue working in Illustrator, Affinity, or Inkscape.
No. The on-screen display is not color-accurate. For color-accurate results you need a proof or a press proof from your printer.
No. The check supports the approval but does not replace it. Binding approval comes from your printer, ideally after a built sample.
The limits come from the selected material profile, for example folding carton board or corrugated board. You can adjust them to your printer's specifications.
No. The model shows geometry and folding sequence. You check springback, crease behavior, and stability on a built sample.
For drafts, pitches, and shop previews, yes. The display is not color-accurate and does not replace a photo of the produced packaging.
Cut, crease, and perforation lines are provided separately and clearly named. This lets the printer assign them to their tools.
No. The app does not access the network. It creates the package and an email draft, and you send both yourself.
The construction adjusts automatically. You check the artwork per variant, because text and images can sit differently at other proportions.
Shops with several shipping sizes, product lines in several fill quantities, and printers who offer recurring size ranges.
An up is a single blank on the printing sheet. The more ups fit on one sheet, the less material you need per package.
Yes, as a proposal. The printer sets the final layout, because it knows the machine, the tooling, and the material format.
An imported reference is fixed geometry and not parametric. For other dimensions, ask your printer for a new dieline or use a template from the catalog.
Then you assign the lines yourself. The app shows all unassigned lines so nothing is overlooked.
No. You get the numbers from your GS1 organization. The app creates the code from them and calculates the check digit.
The app checks size and quiet zone. Print process, material, and color affect readability. So test the code on the press proof with a scanner.
The app works entirely on your Mac. It needs no account, does not upload your designs to the cloud, and does not access the network.
JetDieline is a native Mac app and uses only Apple frameworks. Light and dark mode follow your system settings.
Project files show a preview in the Finder via Quick Look. You can recognize the draft without opening the app.
Common steps can be started via the Shortcuts app and Spotlight.
JetDieline supports you with construction, design, and checking. It does not replace approval by your printer or a built sample. Screen and 3D displays are not color-accurate.
With JetDieline, choose a suitable template, adjust its size, and place text, logos, and images directly on your packaging.
