Freehand is a graphic design software developed by Macromedia of the United States. The current version is Freehand 8.0. It has been widely used in graphic design, color publishing, advertising design, multimedia production, and mechanical drawing. Freehand is not only drawing but also In the text typesetting and special effects processing has shown a strong strength, especially suitable for carton packaging design work, can easily complete the carton prepress design and carton drawing work.
Carton packaging design using Freehand generally need to go through the following steps: First, according to the requirements of the customer, according to the actual size of the carton display surface, respectively, 1  1 draft design, and then draw the carton development plan, and the design of a good printing plate surface in accordance with certain The scale is placed in the pattern, and the dimension of the processing size and the size of the layout are marked to complete the production of the process drawings. After being approved by the customer, it started to make plates, print 11 drafts for hand-engraving rubber plates, or input design drafts into laser engraving machines for engraving rubber plates, or output film-making resin plates.
Freehand has become a competent helper of carton process designers, and its powerful features are reflected in carton packaging design. Drawing tools are easy to operate and make various graphics easily. Freehand 8.0 draws on powerful and unique line drawing tools, rectangle tools, ellipse tools, polygon tools, mapping tools, stretching tools, and associated rendering tools with rendering effects, blending tools, graphical Boolean operations, transparent tools, and other drawing tools Create a wonderful picture effect. As long as you are able to master these tools skillfully and add a lot of imagination and creativity, you will be able to create works that you can also marvel at, and easily create a variety of graphics. At the same time, you can easily import the required graphics from various graphic libraries or other image processing software such as PHOTOSHOP. The word processing function is comprehensive and powerful, creating different text effects.
Carton packaging design is generally more word processing. Text and graphics have always been complementary and indispensable. Freehand as a professional graphic design software, its performance in text layout is very good. Even if it is a professional-level text layout requirement, it is equally competent enough to allow professional users to use it with ease, and its unparalleled efficiency in graphic graphic design also brings many features to text layout. Freehand 8.0's text features are rich in fonts and styles. There are six kinds of text effect tools that can give the text a unique effect: highlighting the selected text, embedding outline inline effects, and text shadow effects , Logout line effect, Underline effect, Create a continuous gradient to the text, Produce a three-dimensional effect of the projection, text has a strong flexibility, text exists as an object, after the input text, you can set the text font size, spacing Line spacing, length and width, tilt rotation, shadow effects, alignment distribution, baseline drift and alignment along specific paths, etc., can also convert text to paths, become graphics, make the potential of text processing greatly developed, and then you can use any A variety of graphic tools to deal with, so as to create a more wonderful text effect, to meet the design needs of different customers. The high precision of production ensures the consistency of the production and the requirements and is accurate.
For carton packaging design, it is not enough to rely on the eyes to look "almost". Freehand 8.0 software provides a page scale function. The reference point zero position of the general page is at the lower left corner of the page. In the carton packaging design, the zero point of the ruler can be reset, the page coordinates can be established, the reference line can be pulled out, and the size can be accurately set. In addition, you can set the dialog box to set the exact value of the property value.
Most carton packaging designs are provided by customers with sample drafts, and there are many standard designs for trademarks, logos, logos, etc., and it is necessary to ensure that the production is consistent with the standards. Under normal circumstances, the customer is not directly scanned into the image for use, this will affect the operating speed, bitmap space is large and after multiple zooming, the image edge is jagged. This requires first scanning the client into a TIFF format image, importing Freehand to use the pen tool for tracing, and converting the bitmap to a vector image. This allows several zooming, the edges of the image remain smooth and smooth, and does not occupy too much. Large space for easy storage and use. The pen tool is one of the most difficult to grasp in the various drawing tools in the Freehand 8.0 basic drawing toolbox, and it is also a tool with the most powerful function and skillful use. For this tool, it takes more effort to learn, carefully comprehend its points, and strive to learn this tool. Its working principle is to draw a curve by establishing a series of "control points", and the curve can be made into a desired shape by changing the type and position of the control point. Although it is not possible to use the pen tool to draw the curve required by the customer at once, it is possible to draw a path first, then adjust the control point handle, and gradually modify the path gradually, making it more and more closer to the user's goal. In order to ensure that the customer sample and production consistent.
In the carton packaging design, using the group command in Freehand 8.0, a number of discrete objects of the same color are combined into a whole, so that the relative position does not change for plate making, which can ensure that the printing overprint is accurate. During printing, the printing plate does not shrink or elongate. When the printing plate is mounted on the plate roller, the printing plate will extend in the direction of the rotomolding roller. To print the correct size, it is necessary to consider the extension of the printing plate for the design draft. Rate, the printing plate elongation can be calculated: printing plate elongation = (printing roller + printing cushion thickness) ÷ (printing roller + printing cushion thickness + printing plate thickness) × 100%, the printing required at design time The actual size multiplied by the print extension is the actual size of the manuscript. The printing plate elongation can be easily accomplished using the scale tool in the Freehand 8.0 deformation tool panel. The scale tool can horizontally, vertically or globally scale the object. Before printing the 1:1 manuscript used for plate making, only the printing direction is required. The design draft is scaled to meet the need for elongation at the time of printing. Satisfy the printing design needs of outlets and create high-quality outlets.
At present, a lot of carton designs use dot printing to improve product quality and competitiveness. In order to obtain high-quality dot effect, design drafting is very important. When designing, the bitmaps and vector graphics are handled differently. The vector image needs to control the grayscale, and the grayscale changes reflect the level. The grayscale size determines the size and thinness of the dot, which is in Freehand 8.0. Can be well realized; the bitmap must be perfect after the image processing, and finally converted to bitmap mode, in the halftone screen dialog box, select the circular dot and the appropriate frequency and angle to get the appropriate dot effect Can be placed into Freehand 8.0 for use. The print output function is powerful and convenient, and it is very practical in carton packaging design.
Freehand print output is convenient and practical. It can output with the maximum precision of the output device. It can use consistent, suitable paper, variable scale printing for the manufactured carton design draft, or combine several pages of graphic and text into one page and print out according to the actual size. The large-format design draft can be output by the stitching page function according to the actual ratio of 11, and then hand-spliced, which can be used to manually engrave the rubber plate; or connect the computer to the laser engraving machine and output the design draft file to carry out machine engraving rubber. Version; can also output the design draft file film film used to make the resin version. Li Yutian
