True-Shape Nesting Software

True-shape nesting software arranging irregular graphics for print production

Nest Pro brings professional true-shape nesting into an Adobe Illustrator production workflow. It arranges irregular artwork more closely than a simple row, grid or rectangular layout, helping designers prepare print-and-cut work without repeatedly positioning every item by hand.

What is true-shape nesting?

True-shape nesting uses the actual outline of each piece when looking for an efficient arrangement. Curves, cut paths and irregular profiles can be placed around one another, so the layout follows the artwork rather than treating every item as a rectangle.

This approach is useful for motocross graphics, stickers, decals, signs, vinyl graphics and other jobs where finished pieces have very different shapes. Nest Pro lets you preview a nest before applying it, so the operator stays in control of the final production layout.

A nesting workflow built around Illustrator

Nest Pro is designed for graphics businesses already working in Adobe Illustrator. Artwork can remain inside a familiar design environment while the software supports the transition from finished design to organised production output.

  • Arrange irregular artwork with true-shape nesting.
  • Preview the proposed layout before it is applied.
  • Prepare multiple production copies in a repeatable workflow.
  • Preserve and transfer the cut paths needed for production.
  • Use Auto Bleed to prepare controlled bleed-ready copies.
  • Keep original artwork protected while production versions are created.

Two suites for different production environments

MX Nest Pro Graphics Suite is built for motocross graphics production, with MX-focused templates, colours, reusable assets and workflow tools.

Nest Pro Graphics Production Suite supports wider print, sign, sticker, vinyl and general graphics work. Both suites are available for Mac and Windows and include one active machine with the main licence.
