FROM ARTWORK TO PAPER CUP

A clearer file.
A better starting point.

Use this guide to prepare your custom cup inquiry, explore your layout, and understand what happens before printing.

Open the cup designer ↗

1. Choose your cup first

The online designer supports 6 oz and 10 oz previews. Select the size before positioning your artwork. Ask our team about 12 oz custom printing. Cup shapes and usable print areas vary, so a design for one size should not be treated as an approved template for another.

2. Bring a clear image for your preview

Upload a PNG or JPG up to 5 MB. A transparent PNG is useful for a logo. Keep your original vector artwork or print-quality PDF for production review; the quote form also accepts PDF, PNG and JPG attachments up to 5 MB.

Aim for 300 dpi at the final print size, and let our team confirm resolution and color requirements. The online preview does not verify print resolution.

3. Pick full wrap or a centered logo

Full cup wrap

The image fills the cup surface automatically. Its edges may be cropped. Review the front, back and sides to see where the artwork lands.

Centered logo

Keep the full image visible, then adjust size, horizontal position, vertical position and angle. Use a background color that supports the artwork.

4. Leave room for production

Keep important text and logos away from the rim, bottom fold and side seam. Ask AuraPack for the approved production template, bleed, safe area, seam allowance and color specifications before finalizing files.

The fabrication view illustrates a tapered cup’s flat fan shape. Drawing dimensions alone do not establish approved print boundaries.

5. Review, save and request a quote

  • Rotate the cup and review all sides.
  • Download the design PDF with cup views and a flat fabrication visualization.
  • Save an editable design file if you want to continue later.
  • Send your quote request with the original artwork, quantity, delivery ZIP code and preferred date.

Artwork stays in your browser while you design. Submitting a quote sends your details and selected files to AuraPack for review. Read our Privacy Policy for more information.

A preview is a conversation starter.

Screen colors, scale, crop and seam placement may differ from the finished cup. Manufacturing requires a final production proof approved in writing. A design upload does not place an order.
