About

Founder and developer of Convert2Print. I build tools that simplify the technical workflow between digital artwork and professional print. My focus is automated prepress, image processing, colour management, PDF/X workflows and making complex production processes accessible to people who shouldn't need to understand the technical details behind them.

I'm building a free workspace for Etsy digital sellers — and looking for support to complete it

I'm Stefan, the independent founder and developer behind Convert2Print.

I've spent a considerable amount of time building a professional artwork-processing engine, and I'm now using that technology to develop something new: Etsy Seller Studio.

The idea is to bring artwork preparation, project management, print sizes, cropping, exports and mockups together in one workspace.

🎁 Who is your product made for?

We talk a lot about product-market fit, but i think how clearly we actually know who our product is for.

Is it the audience you imagined when you started?

The people who are using it now?

Or did you discover a completely different group along the way? =)

Convert2Print - From digital artwork to professional print-ready files

Convert2Print bridges the technical gap between digital artwork and professional print. It analyses and prepares photos, illustrations and PDFs for real physical output, handling resolution, dimensions, controlled colour workflows, ICC profiles, bleed and PDF/X-4 production files. A separate AI-to-poster workflow analyses the original AI artwork, determines suitable physical print sizes, prepares the production file and sends it into professional print fulfilment.
