Packaging design for freelancers, from dieline to approved print file
Drint is where a freelance packaging designer does the whole job in a browser tab: the real dieline at the real size, the box folding in 3D as you draw, a link the client approves on their phone, and the file the print shop accepts. Free to start.
How it goes
1Start from the diePick the box, bag or carton, type the size, and get its dieline and 3D model in a minute — or open your own AI, PDF or PSD file.
2Design on the diePlace text, images and logos straight onto each face; the 3D box follows every stroke.
3Send a proof linkThe client opens a link, spins the 3D, pins comments and presses Approve. No account, no install.
4Export for the pressA CMYK print PDF/X-4, a proof PDF and the dieline files in one package; preflight catches what makes a print shop send files back.
5Show the workPut the finished job on your page at drint.io/your-name — your name first, not the client’s.
What freelancers use it for
Pitch with a real boxShow a concept as a folded 3D box with mockups and fold videos, not a flat PDF.
Win approval fasterOne link that always shows the latest version; comments and approval land inside the project.
Hand off cleanlyA job ticket in the PDF’s title block, cut and fold lines on their own plates, one ZIP for the shop.
Build a portfolioA page for every designer, free: 12 projects on Free, all of them on Pro. It shows the names you give your projects, not your clients’.

Questions
Is Drint free for freelancers?
Yes, to start. On Free, dies, design on the die, live 3D and preflight are unlimited, commercial use is allowed and you get one open client review link. Pro ($19 a month or $144 a year) adds die downloads, the CMYK print PDF and TIFF, 4K mockups, 2K video and unlimited review links.
Can I use it for paid client work?
Yes. Commercial use is allowed on Free and on Pro.
Does my client need an account to approve?
No. They open a link, spin the 3D, pin comments on the pictures and press Approve — on a phone or a computer.
Will the print shop accept my files?
Drint exports PDF/X-4 in CMYK through ICC profiles, with total ink limited for the stock, bleed added and the die line on its own layer. Ask your printer for its spec and compare.
Can I keep using Illustrator or Photoshop?
Yes. Open your AI, PDF or PSD files and keep working on the die; export AI, PDF and SVG whenever you need to.
Does my portfolio show my clients’ names?
No. A Drint page shows the names you give your projects.
