Guides (and grids) only show in Gimp they are not printed.Įxport finished work usually as a png.

(4)Īlways save your work as you go along as a Gimp. (3)ĭuplicate those and move to bottom half. Then you can add layers with graphics and text, scale to fit if required, move to position. One way is set up some guides to provide the 10 cm x 8.5 cm working areas. This will give a canvas, with suitable parameters, 300 pixels per inch (ppi) Up to you to decide on portrait or landscape. One of the Gimp default page sizes is A4. ( I still have bad dreams about getting a 'latte' mug set up for someone )įirst of all, Gimp does not work in centimetres, although there is usually an option to display real world units.

It will be best if you give as much information as possible.Īre you printing at home or sending off for printing?ĭo you have a reference to the type of mug to be printed.
