Guide to Sketch-to-Image File Formats: Choosing the Right Output
Caimera Guide: Choosing the Right File Format for Export
Bringing a design to life is all about the finishing touches. Once you’ve finalized your creations in Caimera, choosing the correct export format ensures a seamless transition to your e-commerce site, print house, or CAD software.
Our Sketch-to-Image and Image-to-Sketch tools are built specifically for design workflows, delivering your designs as clean garment mockups or product illustrations. Best of all, we ensure that everything you create in Caimera remains completely editable, giving you production-ready assets that adapt perfectly to the next phase of your design process.
Here are the file formats we support and how they can best facilitate your specific design and production use cases:
File Format | What It Is | Best Used For... |
JPEG / PNG | Standard, high-quality raster image format. | General everyday use, digital lookbooks, and sharing quick previews online. |
TIFF | Large, uncompressed file at 300 DPI. | High-end print production, physical lookbooks, or fabrics where absolute clarity is required. |
SVG (Vector) | Fully editable vector lines and paths. | Bringing designs into Adobe Illustrator or CAD. It automatically organizes your work into clean layers for outlines, details, and stitching. |
Quick Recommendation
- Exporting to design or sketch further? Choose SVG.
- Sending a catalog to a professional printing house? Choose TIFF.
- Just need to save, email, or upload a clear picture? Choose PNG.
