What does a pink line mean on my print file?

A pink line in a print file marks a die-cut line, showing where the piece will be cut or shaped. It is a guide for production and is not meant to appear in the final print.

• What it means: pink indicates the die-cut path, not printed artwork.
• Do not print it: the line should stay off the finished piece, so keep it on its own layer.
• How to use it: draw your cut path in pink so the team can clearly see where the die cut occurs.

Using a distinct color for the cut line keeps it from being confused with design elements during prepress.
