Exporting photo strips for DSLRBooth, Breeze and Darkroom
A practical guide to getting print-ready strips out of Stripbuilder and into the three most common photobooth apps - single and double strip, right dimensions, every time.
Every photobooth operator has their own booth software, and getting a design to print correctly is where a lot of time quietly disappears. This guide covers how Stripbuilder exports work and how they slot into DSLRBooth, Breeze and Darkroom.
One export, three destinations
The canvas is the strip. What you see at 600×1800 is what comes out of the export.
Stripbuilder exports every finished design as a print-ready PNG. You choose a single strip or a double strip, and the file comes out at the dimensions your booth software expects. There's no manual resizing and no guessing about DPI.
Because the format is consistent, you build the habit once and repeat it for every booking - no per-event fiddling.
Single strip vs double strip
- Single strip - one column of photos, printed once per copy.
- Double strip - two identical columns side by side on a 4×6, cut down the middle for two copies per print.
Which one you use depends on your printer and how your booth software lays out the print. Most operators standardize on double strips for the classic "one for you, one for the guestbook" experience.
DSLRBooth
In DSLRBooth you load the exported PNG as your print template. Because Stripbuilder already matches the strip dimensions, the design drops straight into the print layout without cropping.
Breeze
Breeze users import the PNG as a background or overlay depending on how their event is configured. The consistent export size means the photo openings line up with your booth's capture positions.
Darkroom
Darkroom treats the export the same way - a print-ready layer sized to the strip. Load it, confirm the photo cells, and you're ready to shoot.
The point: stop redesigning per booking
The client finishes their design and submits it; the print-ready PNG is waiting for you on the booking.
The real win isn't any single integration - it's that your client does the design work in the browser, and you get a consistent, print-ready file at the end. Whichever booth app you run, the export step looks the same every time.
