Frequently asked questions

Answers to what first-time sticker makers ask most.

What is a cut line?

A cut line tells a print shop or cutting machine where to cut your sticker. It sits outside a white border around your artwork, so a small misalignment while cutting never clips the art itself. Stickers cut to shape this way are often called die-cut stickers.

Does it make the cut line automatically from my image?

Yes. Upload a PNG or JPG image and a white border and cut line are drawn around the outline of your artwork automatically. You can change the cut shape (follow outline, rounded rectangle, rectangle, or circle), the border width, and the print size in the editor. If one image holds several separate drawings, each becomes its own sticker.

Which file should I send to a print shop?

Most print shops accept a PDF with the cut line on its own layer. Choose “PDF (for print shops)” when downloading, and if your print shop asks for a specific cut line color or stroke width, set it in the presets.

Does it work with cutting machines like Silhouette Cameo or Cricut?

Yes. For stickers you print at home and then cut, download the Sticker PNG: Cricut Design Space (Print Then Cut) and Silhouette Studio (PNG auto trace) cut along the outer edge of its white border. If you only need the cut line, use DXF for Silhouette Studio Basic Edition or SVG for Brother ScanNCut. Picking a machine preset applies the right format and settings for you.

Can I use a JPG or an image with a background?

Yes. Solid backgrounds such as white, and smooth gradients, are removed automatically when you upload, and the cut line follows your artwork. If a background is not removed, you can click the spots to remove yourself. For photos with busy backgrounds, hide the background layer in your drawing app and export a transparent PNG for the most accurate result.

How wide should the white border be?

If you are just starting out, keep the default 2 mm (0.08 in). A border that is too thin can let the blade clip the edge of your art if the cut is slightly off.

Is my artwork stored on a server?

No. Your files are never uploaded or stored on a server. Everything from tracing the cut line to creating the files happens inside the browser you are using right now. Session recordings we use to improve the site may include a reduced-size copy of what’s on screen (not in Europe); see the privacy policy.
