A Real Dieline for Every Box Style
Switch styles to see the exact cut, fold and bleed lines DielineKit draws, with the board thickness already allowed for so the box closes properly.
Reverse Tuck End (RTE) Carton
The global standard for pharmaceuticals, cosmetic bottles, electronics packaging, and retail goods. The top closure tucks from front to back, while the bottom closure tucks from back to front, providing a clean unblemished front-facing presentation.
From Box Size to Print-Ready Files
Most dieline tools stop at a flat template. DielineKit takes you from the structure to finished artwork your printer can run, all in the browser.
Built to fold, not just to look right
Board thickness is allowed for at every crease, so tuck flaps close and side walls don’t bind on the packing line.
How caliper allowance worksFold it in 3D, then make mockups
Watch your box fold up and spin it before anything is printed. Export mockup images and MP4 videos for your store and social.
Mockup video generatorDesign right on the dieline
Place artwork, text, shapes and images on the panels, or let AI lay out a first design from a short brief.
Open the studioBarcodes and QR codes built in
Add EAN, UPC or QR codes at true print size, with checks that they will scan. They export as sharp vector artwork.
Barcode & QR code generatorPreflight while you design
Live checks flag missing bleed, low-resolution images, and text or barcodes over folds before your printer does.
PDF preflight checkerFiles your printer can use
