Updated over a week ago

Our Design Studio makes creating branded packaging simple and fun. Here’s how to get started:

  1. Choose Your Box Type: Select the style that fits your needs.

  2. Enter Dimensions & Quantity: Input your box size and how many you need.

  3. Click “Design Box Online”: You’re ready to start customizing!

Using the Design Studio

The design tool includes everything you need to create a standout box:

  • Upload Your Images - Add your own photos, logos, or artwork.

  • Explore Free Graphics - Access a library of shapes and illustrations.

  • Customize Text - Choose from dozens of fonts to make your message pop.

  • Pick Backgrounds - Use pre-designed patterns or solid colors for extra flair.

All these options are available in the left-hand panel. Just click and create!

Accepted File Formats

We support JPEG and PNG files.

If your image is in another format, email us at help@boxgenie.com, and we’ll help convert it.

File Size Limit: Images must be 120MB or smaller. For larger files, we recommend designing offline.

Adding Images

Here’s how to add and adjust images in the designer:

  1. Import: Click “My Images” in the left panel or drag files into your browser.

  2. Add to Project: Drag your uploaded image onto your box design.

  3. Resize: Drag a corner or use the zoom tool.

  4. Crop: Use the green squares on the edges.

  5. Delete: Click the image and hit the trash icon if you need to remove it.

Understanding Crease & Cut Lines

Your template shows blue and red lines:

  • Blue = Cut Lines

    • Keep designs at least ⅛” (.125”) away to avoid trimming.

  • Red = Fold Lines

    • Keep artwork ⅛” (.125”) away so it doesn’t land on a crease.

This helps to ensure artwork and design elements are not trimmed off or applied to a crease during normal shifting in the production process.

Image Quality Tips

Resolution: Aim for 225–300 DPI for crisp printing.

Scale & Clarity Indicators

The designer uses intelligence to look at the scale of the image uploaded compared to the size rendered on the box.

  1. 😊 Happy Face: Image looks great.

  2. 😐 Neutral Face: Slight distortion - consider resizing.

  3. ☹️ Frowny Face: High distortion - resize smaller.

If your image looks fuzzy, reduce its size on the canvas. If it’s too small, go back to the original file and save it at a higher DPI.
