Hi everyone,
I’m currently working on a project with a large number of PNG files that need to be prepared for printing (specifically for stickers/die-cutting).
I need to create a cut path for each one, but I need it to be slightly "thicker" or offset from the original image to leave a bleed/border. Since I have so many files and I’m relatively new to the print workflow, I have two main questions:
- What is the fastest way to generate a vector path from a PNG without manual tracing?
- Is there a way to automate this process (like an Action or Batch script) to create that offset border for all files at once?
I'm using Illustrator, but I've never worked for print before, so any tips on the best workflow to avoid headaches at the print shop would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance for the help!
