Only specific Files work
FILE FORMATS
File Formats We Accept
- PNG (Preferred) – with a transparent background.
- Vector - Art that works at any scale and does not pixelate
- No JPEGs (they do not support transparency).
Sizing Your Artwork
- Size your artwork to the exact size you want printed.
- For example Left chest: 4” wide
- For example Full front: 11” wide
True Color
How to Color
Color Mode
- Use CYMK for the most accurate color when you design your artwork. DTF will convert PNGs from RGB to to CYMK when it prints the physical transfers.
- We automatically print a white under base, so your designs will pop on dark garments.
Print the best design
Best Practices
Design Tips
- Avoid thin lines: Very fine lines may not transfer cleanly as they will not have enough adhesive to be pressed onto the shirt.
- Use solid colors: While gradients print well, extremely fine gradients may band.
- Remove any stray pixels or hidden layers in your file.
- Make sure text is outlined or rasterized to prevent font issues.
- Remove any transparency from the image as the under base will show through.

Mindful Notes
Other Notes
- Print color may vary between different printers as they are calibrated differently
- Any color matches we do is not 100% match and only an approximation
- Reprints & Consistency: Small differences may occur between batches, especially when reordering at different times. These are normal variations in the DTF process.
