Have a look at our backside artwork tutorial for more details on the topic first. If the artwork looks transparent in Origami, make sure you added a solid white background to the artwork project before exporting. If you see the contours of the dieline on the box after importing the artwork back, make sure that you hid the template before exporting so it doesn’t get into the PNG–file with artwork. Let’s start with the dieline, run Affinity Designer, select File → Open there and pick the layout.svg file you’ve just exported: Now we can load them to vector editing software to make some changes. We’ve just exported the dieline as a set of raster and vector files. Have a look through them, read the readme.txt file and then we can move to the next step.
There could be more files if you enable backside or will be using foil masks, but the ones above are the main ones. params.json - various parameters of the dieline that don’t really matter for this tutorial.front-template.png - the raster version of the dieline, can be used as a template for your artwork.That’s what is displayed by Origami on top of your box front-rgb.png - the artwork of the front side of the shape.You will load it to your vector editor and then save it back for loading to Origami layout.svg - the dieline itself in SVG format.readme.txt - this file contains a brief description of all the other files and helps if you forget something.You can open it in Finder or Explorer, depending on your operating system. Even if you decide to switch computers, you can still have access to the same line of history.You will be asked for a destination folder and then Origami will export the dieline to that folder. Just like in life, your history follows you wherever you go. Don't worry, Affinity Designer gives you the ability to hit the "undo" button over 8,000 times, no matter if you quit out of the document or not. You make a huge mistake on your latest project. Not only does this software allow you to zoom at speeds of 60fps, but it also gives you a microscope-esque zoom of more than 1,000,000 percent. Although Illustrator touts its newly updated zoom tool, Affinity Designer currently has the upper hand with this feature. Neat, right? Zoom Toolĭon't underestimate the importance of a good zoom tool. However, if you want photo-editing features like Photoshop's clone tool, you'll have to splurge on Affinity Photo.įinally, the Export Persona lets you export specific areas, or slices, from your project into different file sizes or file formats. The only difference is that you can use vector and pixel tools on the same screen. You can utilize pixel brushes, just like in Photoshop.
