Match the exact format
A stand-up pouch, lay-flat pouch, die-cut shape, and rollstock repeat use different layouts. A similar-looking template is not interchangeable.
Design on the right template.
Request a production dieline for your confirmed pouch dimensions and features. If the size is still undecided, we will start there first.
Request a templateCustom printed. Starting at 500 pieces.
A dieline is a production drawing.
It identifies the shape and important boundaries of your package. Use it to position the artwork around seals, folds, openings, and features.
Confirm the dimensions
Include width, height, and base depth where applicable, with units. An ounce capacity alone does not identify the correct drawing.
Include the features
Tell us about zippers, windows, hang holes, tear notches, and special shapes. These affect where artwork can be placed.
Send the details for your packaging type.
| You are designing | Include in the request |
|---|---|
| Stand-up or lay-flat pouch | Format, confirmed dimensions, units, opening, and features |
| Die-cut pouch | Proposed outline, fill requirement, opening, and any shape artwork |
| Meat-stick wrapper | Stick dimensions and the co-packer’s wrapper or film drawing |
| Rollstock | Web width, repeat length, unwind orientation, seal layout, and machine requirements |
When you receive the drawing.
Keep the original technical information intact and use separate layers for artwork.
Read the safe areas
Keep essential text and barcodes within the designated areas. Do not infer a generic margin from another bag.
Keep effects separate
Identify white ink, windows, and spot effects on clearly named layers according to the supplied instructions.
Return the complete file
Include linked assets and font handling as instructed. Review the final proof even if the original file looked correct.
Template questions.
Can I download a generic 4 oz template?
A 4 oz target weight does not determine one exact size. Confirm the physical dimensions and format before selecting a production dieline.
What if I do not know the size yet?
Include your product details, target fill, and packing method. We can discuss sizing before preparing the final drawing.
Can my designer contact you with questions?
Use the contact form and include the project details and the question. Keep the artwork discussion tied to the confirmed specification.
Request your production dieline.
