Pandora accepts CFF2, DDES2, and DXF die files. Use CFF2 and DDES2 formats because they are specifically intended for packaging, while DXF is a CAD format intended for industrial design.

Each job can include one or more dies and the dies can have multiple die stations.

Note: To control the placement of more than one die on the layout, set the preference for Multiple Die Align.

1. Select File > Import > Die.
2. In the Import Die dialog box, browse to the location of the die file, select the file, and then click Open (Macintosh) or Import (Windows).
3. When the die appears in the Die folder on the Content tab of the Information window, drag it to the layout view. If you have already imported a substrate to the layout view, the software will center the die on the substrate.
4. If necessary, select View > Fit in Window so you can see the whole die(s) or die stations. For other zooming options and their keyboard shortcuts, use the View menu.
5. If the Geometry palette is not currently displayed, select Window > Show Geometry Palette.
   When you drag dies to the layout view or move them within the layout, the new co-ordinates are displayed on the Geometry palette.
6. On the reference point diagram on the Geometry palette, click the reference point that you want to use to position the object.
7. In the X and Y boxes of the Geometry palette, type the coordinates of the position to which you want to move the die.
   You can also position dies by using one of these methods:
   • Dragging them into place.
   • Using the arrow keys to nudge them into place. Check the Geometry palette to view the coordinates of the new position.
   • Positioning guides at the target location, and then dragging the selected die to that position.

Pandora 接受 CFF2、DDES2 和 DXF 刀版文件。使用 CFF2 和 DDES2 格式的原因在于它们专用于包装，而 DXF 是用于工业设计的 CAD 格式。

每个作业可以包含一个或多个刀版，刀版可以包含多个刀版台。

注意：要控制多个刀版在版式上的布局，请设置首选项Multiple Die Align。
