PNG is where finished digital artwork usually lives, from tablet drawings to exported line art. Upload the PNG and HectoInk turns it into a stencil with the lines at the weight you choose. Set the width in inches and download a print-ready PDF, a 300 DPI PNG, or an SVG.
Free preview. No account. Your image is converted, not stored.
Starting presets, not lab calibrations: they nudge line density and weight for common printer and paper combos. We tune them with working artists' feedback.

Yes. Transparent areas are treated as empty space, so artwork drawn on a transparent background converts without a box around it. The stencil follows the artwork itself.
Linework mode is the closest match for existing line art because it keeps interior lines instead of just the outline. If the original lines are thin, add line weight so they survive the transfer and stay readable on skin.
Yes. Alongside the tiled print PDF and the SVG, you can download an exact-size PNG rendered at 300 DPI, sized to the width you set in inches.
