One design, every size

For apparel and anything sized

Design one size. Get the whole size run.

Your graded pattern already holds every size. A design made on one of them is placed on all the others for you, each on its own pattern.

Logos and numbers stay the right size
A crest is the same size on a small as on a 3XL, unless you want it to grow.
Backgrounds follow the pattern
Stripes, panels and piping fill each size to its own edges.
See every size before it ships
Check the whole run side by side and adjust one size without touching the rest.
A print file per size
Each size ordered prints at its true size, with the size on the sheet.

A code to come back to it

Your templates, their starting point.

Publish any finished design as a template. Customers start from it instead of a blank, and you decide what they can change: the colors, the text, a logo, or nothing at all.

One template, three customers. Same layout, their own logo and colors.

Before anything is printed

They see the real thing, not a flat pattern.

The design is shown on a photo of your product or on a 3D model, and it updates as they work. The same pictures can go on your product page.

  • On your own product photos
  • In 3D, from your own model
  • Ready to use as store pictures

MODO Ditto Designer

From design to production, with MODO.

MODO runs production for made-to-order manufacturers. Ditto Designer connects to it directly, so every custom order reaches the floor with its print file, and your team designs in the system they already work in.

Ditto Designer is its own product, licensed separately from MODO.

Learn about MODO

  • Orders arrive with their print file Online orders

    A shopper designs on your site. The order and its print-ready file go straight into production in MODO, so nobody rebuilds the art by hand.

  • Your team designs inside MODO Sales orders

    Sales reps and brands open the same designer from MODO, build the design with the customer and send a preview to approve.

  • Saved for the re-order In MODO

    Designs are saved to the brand and its order history. A repeat order opens the approved design, ready to produce or adjust.

  • One setup for both Set up once

    Online and sales orders share the same templates, safe zones and print rules, built from your cut file.

Not on MODO? It runs on its own too. Add it to any site you run with one short script. Your developer gets full documentation and a place to test.
