I started building Print for Figma back in 2019. Over time, based on feedback from the community, I've introduced print-ready PDF exporting, CMYK color support, ICC color profiles, DPI checking, color mapping, image management, and more. Nearly 250,000 users later, that little plugin has grown into something much bigger than I ever imagined, and it's outgrown its original name.
Today, I'm introducing Printability: the new parent brand, platform, and home for Print for Figma and everything else I'm building for print designers.
Why the new parent brand?
Print for Figma will always be the name of the Figma plugin. That won't change. But over the years, I've found myself building far more than just a plugin: free tools, learning resources, guides on color theory and paper sizes, DPI calculators, and content for designers who want to understand print design at a deeper level.
None of that is really "Print for Figma." It's something broader. It's about printability — the craft of making designs that translate beautifully from screen to paper.
The name felt right, and so Printability was born.
What is Printability?
Printability is the platform I've built around the same mission that started Print for Figma: making professional print design accessible to every designer. Here's what it includes:
- Print for Figma: the flagship Figma plugin for CMYK export, bleed, crop marks, DPI checking, ICC color profiles, and print-ready PDF creation. This is the same plugin you know, now the cornerstone product of Printability.
- The Learning Hub: free, in-depth guides covering topics from paper sizes and ICC color profiles to advanced print design workflows in Figma.
- Free Tools: calculators for DPI, pixels to inches, millimeters to pixels, and other conversions that print designers need every day.
- The Blog: articles, tips, and resources for print and graphic designers who use Figma.
One parent brand, one platform, one mission.
What's changed for Print for Figma users?
If you're already using Print for Figma, nothing changes in your workflow. The plugin works exactly the same way inside Figma. Same features, same presets, same settings. Your subscription carries over and there's nothing you need to do.
The only difference is the website. I originally launched Print for Figma on its own standalone domain, printforfigma.com. That site now redirects to printability.app/product/print-for-figma, which is the official product page going forward. If you need support, documentation, or account management, you'll find everything at printability.app.
For the latest updates, the official links are:
- Website: printability.app
- Print for Figma: printability.app/product/print-for-figma
- Figma Community: Print for Figma on Figma Community
- Support: support@printability.app
The bigger picture
When I started Print for Figma, I was a designer frustrated by the lack of good print tools in Figma. That frustration hasn't gone away, but now I have a platform to do something about it at a much larger scale.
The print industry is incredibly complex. It spans color science, chemistry, engineering, and topics that even professional print service providers struggle to fully navigate. Having spent years learning these systems firsthand, I founded Printability around a core conviction: print design should be accessible to everyone. Not just to people who've spent decades in pre-press, but to every designer who wants to bring their digital work into the physical world with confidence.
Print for Figma is the product that started it all, and it remains the heart of Printability. But the vision is bigger now: to build the best ecosystem of tools, knowledge, and resources for anyone doing print and graphic design, starting with Figma, but not limited to it.
I have a lot planned for 2026. More learning content, more tools, and of course, continued development of Print for Figma itself. If you've been following along for a while, you know I don't ship things until they're ready, and I'm excited about what's coming.
Thanks for being here. Whether you've been using Print for Figma since day one or you're just discovering Printability now, I'm thankful you're part of this.
