DTF Artwork Best Practices

DTF Artwork Files

Artwork for DTF prints can be in either vector or raster, however we only accept PDF, PNG, and JPEG files so please export accordingly.

DTF Resolution

Raster resolution should be 300 dpi, and sized accordingly to the item you are purchasing. We will not resize your artwork.

Backgrounds in DTF

All background should be transparent and we do not touch your artwork file. If there is a white background we will print it.

Soft Edges or Semi Transparent pixels in DTF

Soft edges and semitransparent pixels will print white. Please either halftone your images in photoshop (Max Chroma Halftone rip or ActionSeps DTX) Or adjust your artwork so that it does not have any transparent pixels.

Below is how to remove transparent pixels in photoshop without any add ons.

DTF minimum width

Any section of the graphic that has a width less than 0.1 inches may not adhere to apparel.

DTF SEMITRANSPARENT PIXELS

Using basic background removal and low resolutions images can result in semitransparent pixels, as shown above. This can cause a white outline to be printed on the DTF transfer. Make sure that your edge does not have any semitransparent pixels.
