Engraving is a different discipline — the tool should know that
Engraved products cannot print a photograph. They need single-weight line art, a minimum stroke width the machine can actually cut, and a preview that reads as metal rather than as ink. Customei constrains the tools to what the process can produce.
Engrave a pendant — right here
Type an inscription, change the material, adjust depth. The preview shades as metal, not as print.
Simplified stand-in for the storefront runtime — the real editor renders your own template and mockup photography.
What matters for jewellery & engraving
Only the capabilities that apply.
A feature list scoped to this category, because a camera cut-out means nothing on a cushion.
- Text and line art only
- Photo uploads are disabled for engraved products, so a customer cannot order something the machine cannot cut.
- Minimum stroke enforcement
- Type below the machine's minimum weight is rejected at the field, with a live warning.
- Material preview
- Brushed steel, polished gold, rose gold, walnut — each with its own shading and gloss pass.
- Depth simulation
- Shallow, standard and deep engraving rendered with different shadow strength.
- Both faces
- Front and reverse as separate mockup frames, for a date on the back.

Fulfilment notes
- Vector output means no raster-to-path conversion step on the production side.
- Material and depth travel with the file, so one queue can mix finishes safely.
- Character limits are enforced against the physical inscription area, not a guess.
