The AI download is an Illustrator-compatible EPS: fully editable paths, named layers and no embedded rasters. Open it, ungroup once and every cut line is selectable.

Set the document units to millimetres before scaling so stroke weights and kerf compensation stay predictable.

Delivery note. EPS-compatible .ai artwork — opens natively in Illustrator and Affinity Designer.

Importing without surprises

  1. 1Import at 1:1 with millimetre units. If your software asks for a DPI, use 25.4 so one unit equals one millimetre.
  2. 2Keep the CUT and SCORE layers separate and assign them different operations — through-cut and engrave.
  3. 3Apply your own kerf compensation and lead-ins in CAM. Nothing is baked into the drawing, so the same file works on a laser, a router and a plasma table.

AI — common questions

4 answers
01What exactly do I get in the AI download?

Editable artwork for Illustrator-based studios. The AI download is an Illustrator-compatible EPS: fully editable paths, named layers and no embedded rasters. Open it, ungroup once and every cut line is selectable. EPS-compatible .ai artwork — opens natively in Illustrator and Affinity Designer.

02Which software opens these AI files?

Tested with Illustrator, Affinity Designer, Inkscape and more. Set the document units to millimetres before scaling so stroke weights and kerf compensation stay predictable.

03Why does my import come in at the wrong size?

Almost always a unit mismatch. Our files are millimetres with a 1:1 user space; if your importer assumes 72 or 96 dpi it will scale the artwork. Set the import DPI to 25.4, or use the DXF variant which carries explicit unit metadata.

04Are all 3 designs available as AI?

Every design on this page ships a AI file. Designs are only listed here when the format has been generated and verified from the master geometry, so the count reflects real, downloadable files.
