Die Cut

How to design Die Cut signage?

I am designing signage, and I want it to be die cut. How do I go about doing that in CS3? (and which program would be best? Illustrator, Indesign, or Photoshop?)

you can use a combination of photoshop and illustrator depending on the design. You first need the dieline. Put an outside bleed of about 3/4″ and an inside bleed of around 1/4″. Make sure the dieline is on it’s own seperate layer. Then you should be good. Ask whatever printer you’re using what file type you need. usually an illustrator or eps file is used.
