tlehnhaeuser Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 Can anyone recommend software that will create mechanical die lines for cardstock or havey paper packaging? Someone told me theres a program, that all I need to do is entered some dimensions and it will create a flat die line blank with fold lines etc... This then could be imported or save as an Adobe Illustrator file. I searched the web, but maybe putting in the wrong terms, since nothing really showd up except for "Draw Die Line" which really doesn't do what I'm looking for. Any help is appreciated.

Mike Allen Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 Is this the sort of thing you're looking for? - http://www.packmeister.com/default.asp (I searched: cardboard packaging layout software.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tlehnhaeuser Posted January 11, 2010 Author Share Posted January 11, 2010 Yes, thats its however there doesn;t appear to be a way to export the layout out of this program. But this is on the right track. THANKS tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Allen Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 I think you could print the output to PDF & open it in Illustrator (I just checked it & you can indeed.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
