Dielines API

Automate dieline generation and integrate professional packaging templates directly into your existing systems.

The Dielines API is a powerful, hosted solution available via HTTPS that lets you generate custom dielines in PDF, DXF, and SVG formats, along with 3D mockups and sheet nesting layouts—all programmatically.

Save time and streamline your workflow by eliminating manual dieline creation. Whether you're building an e-commerce platform, automating quote generation, or connecting your design tools, our API integrates seamlessly with your existing infrastructure.

Sheet nesting & layout efficiency

For print production, the API also handles nesting (also known as imposition or layout) for any dieline you generate:

  • List nesting templates applicable to a dieline, automatically filtered by its dimensions and material so you only see layouts that actually fit.
  • Calculate sheet efficiencies across every applicable template — for a given sheet size, the API returns the optimal num_x × num_y count for each template, so you can pick the most material-efficient layout before committing.
  • Create a nesting on the chosen template and sheet, and download the finished imposition.
