Starter template, not a production die. Sizes and offsets follow general print standards. Material and machine change the exact die, so confirm final specs with us (hello@truepackglobal.com) before you send files to print.
What to watch on a folding carton.
- 01Glue flaps are left unprinted by default (varnish and ink can weaken the glue line).
- 02Keep text 1/8 in from folds; fold cracks show on dark solids, so ask about scoring.
- 03Paperboard caliper changes the die slightly; we size it to your board.
- 04Bleed 0.125 in (3 mm) past trim on every edge that has colour; safe zone 0.125 in inside trim.
