🎨 Art Requirements

Before uploading your artwork, here’s some important info to get the best results!

  1. Save your art file in an accepted file format:
    Recommended: PDF, AI, EPS, PSD
    Also accepted: JPG, PNG, TIFF
    If using Corel Draw, export as PDF before uploading.

  2. Send your artwork at the exact size you want to print.
    We will not resize your artwork. For example: If you choose a 22"x12" sheet but upload an 8"x8" file, we'll print 8"x8".
    You are responsible for confirming the size.

  3. Submit artwork in RGB or CMYK color space.
    Any white areas you want printed must be white in your file.

  4. Convert all text to outlines.
    Fonts should be converted to non-editable vectors (no live fonts).

  5. Check your line weights.
    Lines must be at least 0.5 pt thick. Thin details may not print properly.

🎨 General Questions

A: Yes, with proper application, DTF prints are stretch-resistant and long-lasting even after multiple washes. A: Cotton, polyester, blends, nylon, and more—as long as they can withstand heat. A: We print custom designs that you upload. You can also choose from our template collection if available.
🖼️ Artwork & File Requirements

🔥 Heat Press Instructions
A: Recommended: 310°F (155°C), press for 10 seconds, instant peel (cold or hot). A: Most DTF transfers are cold peel—wait 15–20 seconds before removing the film.

Repressing may help.
