Turn artwork into a charm
Bring an SVG or PNG into PrintPatch and give it another dimension.
Prepare your artwork
Choose a clear SVG or PNG with simple, well-separated shapes. Avoid tiny details that will disappear at the intended print size. Use artwork you own or have permission to reproduce.
Import a charm
Choose Add object and add a charm. Select the SVG or PNG file when the artwork picker opens. SVG imports as vector shapes; PNG opens an import dialog for preparing the image.
Prepare PNG artwork
For PNGs, inspect the image and traced preview in the dialog. Use the available background, object-selection and cleanup controls to keep the artwork you want. Review the colour regions before confirming the import.
Set shape and colour layers
Select the charm in Objects. Adjust the available dimensions and thickness controls and review its colour assignments. Where colour bands are present, use their ordering controls to arrange the layers.
Inspect, save, and export
Rotate the 3D preview and look for small islands or thin details. Save the project, export the model, and inspect its parts in your slicer. Adjust the design if your printer cannot reproduce the smallest features.
