Packaging Dieline
Packaging Dieline is a browser-based tool for drawing parametric packaging dielines and exporting print-ready files.
What Packaging Dieline is
Packaging Dieline is a browser-based tool for drawing parametric packaging dielines and exporting print-ready files. It offers 18 templates for cartons, mailers, trays, bottle carriers, bags and displays. Set length, width, height, board caliper and safe area, then choose internal, external or die-cut dimensions. Exports are vector PDF, AI, SVG or DXF files at true size in millimetres, with cut, fold-line and safe-area geometry on separate layers. Drawing works in a browser without installation or an account. The free plan includes four of the 18 styles and unlimited exports; Studio adds all styles, batch size runs, saved presets and a board caliper library. Team adds shared libraries, SSO, centralised billing, a JSON API and custom structure addition. Styles outside verified size ranges are labelled Extrapolating with the dimension and sampled range identified. The product does not provide a 3D preview. Plans include Free at no cost, Studio at $19 a month, and Team at $29 a month per seat.
