3D Print Design

The 3MF keeps every colour as its own part for multi-colour printing. The STL is one solid.

3MF preserves richer print metadata when your slicer supports it.

Upload a photo, or bring a piece over from the Art Library, to start your standee.

  1. Upload a photo, PNG or SVG, or open a piece in the Art Library and choose Make it into, then Standee. Pick a cut: follow the transparency of a PNG, remove a plain paper background, remove a photo background, or crop to a shape.

  2. Set the artwork height and the outline border. A backdrop panel behind the lower half lets a character stand in front of its own scene.

  3. Choose the stand. A slot base takes one tab or two legs. A cross slot cuts the figure twice so the two halves slot together. Enter your measured material thickness so the slots fit.

  4. Download the SVG or the ZIP. Print the image at 100%, line it up with your jig or registration method, and cut only the red lines.

The print and cut files share one page size and origin, with the base laid out beside the figure. Keep that alignment when you import them. The page includes the bleed and a 2 mm margin, so it is larger than the pieces. Machine-specific registration marks are not included.
