Questions & answers
Sixteen straight answers on ordering, artwork, pressing and shipping. If yours is missing, tell us and we will add it.
One large sheet holding many designs at once. Instead of printing each design on its own sheet, we pack them together so you pay for film, not per design.
Open the builder, upload your artwork, arrange the designs on the sheet, pick your length, and add it to the cart. Sizing and pricing update as you go.
Yes. If you laid it out in Photoshop, Illustrator or anything else, use the upload page. We read the dimensions, price it at $2.85 a square foot, and send it straight to checkout.
Yes. Open the cart item and return to the builder any time before you check out.
PNG, JPEG, PDF and TIFF. A transparent PNG at 300 DPI gives the sharpest result.
For best results, yes. DTF prints every pixel on the sheet, so a white box behind your logo prints as white ink, which is very visible on dark garments.
300 DPI at the size you want it printed. Anything under 150 DPI looks soft or pixelated, and we do not upsample artwork.
No. Send it reading the right way round. A mirrored file prints backwards.
285 to 305°F for 7 seconds at high pressure. Wait 2 to 3 seconds, peel hot or fully cold, then finish press 3 to 5 seconds under parchment or Teflon.
Cotton, polyester, blends, nylon, denim, canvas and leather, on light or dark garments. Waterproof and heavily coated fabrics are the exception.
Wash tested past 60 cycles without cracking or fading when pressed correctly. Wash inside out in cold water, tumble dry low, never iron the print.
Any heat press that holds steady temperature and pressure works, whether clamshell, swing-away or auto-open. A household iron is not recommended; it cannot hold even pressure.
