How To Design Artwork For A Window Pouch

Creating a clear window requires intentional artwork layering. Follow these steps to ensure your spot color files are production-ready.

Vector dieline window shape setup

1. Define Window Shape

Place the exact window shape on its own dedicated vector layer. Use a distinct stroke color to separate it from your main graphics.

Setting up White Ink Spot Color Swatch

2. Set White Ink Layer

Create a Spot Color swatch named "White_Ink." Apply this to your printed areas while keeping the window shape empty for 100% transparency.

Window Pouch FAQ

Is there an extra cost for clear windows?

No. A custom window is essentially a free embellishment. Since we use clear high-barrier film as the base, it costs the same as a fully printed pouch if your layers are set up correctly.

Will my printed colors look different on clear material?

When printing on clear film, we use a white ink base to maintain color opacity. This prevents your design from looking "ghosted" or washed out against your product.

Do window pouches reduce product shelf life?

Not when engineered correctly. We select performance barrier films that block oxygen and moisture, and we address concerns like UV exposure or window fogging during the design phase.

Can I customize the shape of the window?

Yes! From circles and squares to custom brand logos, you can designate any transparent area in your artwork dielines.
