Cut-Outs Service
Cut costs with our cut-outs
You could be paying up to £20 for each image your graphic designer cuts out. We charge £2 or £3.
If your catalogue or brochure shows 200 products then you can reduce your production budget by thousands of pounds.
Cut-outs or clipped images are a time consuming part of the design process but essential if you want to show the product against a white background. The images on the right show the original shot and how a clipped image is used.
Cut out images can be put against any background.
How it works...
We have made cut-outs simple.
- 1. We give you this magic button. It sits on your computer’s desktop and when you want images clipped you drag and drop them onto the icon.
- 2. The image is sent to us.
- 3. It’s recorded in your account as a job – you can see the images you have sent and manage your account on-line.
- 4. We hand draw the path around the image and then send the cut-out image back to you. (Hand drawing means the quality is as good but probably better than you’ll be getting at the moment.)
- 5. Then pass the images to your printer or designer.
Simple as that!

Need advice on how to take photos for the cut-out service?
We cut-out the shots taken in the box as well as shots taken by any digital camera.
If you are using one of our Photo Studios in-a-box we recommend you set the system to take Super Fine shots ( you’ll find this under the “I” button, under Image Quality) and then save the shots as Max .jpgs . This will give the quality you need for print. Download our guide below.
If you are using your own digital camera we can give you some tips to make sure the images you send us will produce the best finished result. As there are many variables it is best to give us a call to discuss the format of the shots. Call us on 0207 538 8105.
