Box outlines are now simpler than ever to build!
Box outlines, similar to box dielines, refer to the basic shape or framework, usually defined by its dimensions and edges, if it's a physical structure. It's essentially the skeletal layout used to guide the creation of a box. Pacdora now offers users opportunities to create their special box outlines easily by providing many easy-to-use features. What designers need to do is adjust the sizes, materials, and thickness, and then they will have the outlines they want.
Features of a box outline
Definition
Box outlines, or box dielines, describe the fundamental structure or template of a box, typically outlined by its size, edges, and fold lines when dealing with a physical form. They act as the blueprint or guide for constructing the box.
Dimensions
Box outlines vary widely in shape and size, so it's challenging to provide a one-size-fits-all dimension. Always verify the package's measurements and consult with manufacturers to ensure they can be produced.
Applications
Box outlines have diverse applications, from packaging design and DIY crafts to education, prototyping, and digital design. They help guide creation, ensuring accuracy, functionality, and clarity in various creative and practical fields.

Harold Muniz Ortiz
Pacdora has saved me so much time as a designer. I've been able to focus on designing, rather than dealing with dielines. The best feature is the easy customization of the templates to fit your packaging needs and the 3D renders that clearly show what the product will look like.
AM
I'm a graphic design student and find Pacdora extremely helpful when mocking up projects. The convenience of Pacdora allows me to spend more time on designing rather than figuring out all the technical nuances in building dielines. Highly recommend Pacdora.
