Frequently Asked Questions
How do I create a die-cut line SVG for sticker printing?
In Illustrator or Inkscape: expand your sticker artwork by 3–5mm using Object > Expand (Illustrator) or Path > Dynamic Offset (Inkscape). Use this expanded shape as the cut line SVG. Send to printer as a separate SVG layer.
What resolution do sticker printers need?
300 DPI minimum, 600 DPI preferred for fine details. The print artwork is PNG; the cut line is the SVG. At 300 DPI: a 2×2 inch sticker = 600×600 pixel PNG artwork.
