File Requirements

  • File resolution recommendations: Your print file has to be at least 150 DPI (dots per inch) to ensure optimal print quality.
  • Accepted print file formats: PNG, EPS

As stated above, if the content of your design is hateful, illegal, or it violates intellectual property rights, it can be removed at any time by our suppliers and print file graphic specialists.

Low-quality designs, or designs that are too small to be qualitatively scaled up are one of the most common reasons why orders are put on hold. 

When it comes to size, make sure the print file you submit is as big as you want it on your garment. Remember, that it’s better to submit a larger print file that we can scale down, instead of vice versa.

Resolution is no less important. If we printed a low-resolution file that’s scaled up, design would be blurry and pixelated. And that probably isn’t something you’d like to own.

As it’s been already mentioned, we require files to be at least 150 DPI. 

Avoid transparent elements in your design. If you’re not sure whether your design has transparent elements, try switching off the solid white background in the editor you’re using to create your print file. If the grid is showing through the elements – they’re transparent. Take a look at the image below to understand this better.

 
 

Let’s say you decided to print a design on a white t-shirt. If your design has a white background, it’s likely that the shades of white in the printed design and the garment won’t match and your final product may look odd (check the image on the left below).

 

Similarly, if you’re printing design with a black background on a black garment, you’ll be left with a greyish rectangle around your design.

So it is recommended to use a transparent background behind your design.

Also when you write your own text, make sure you choose a color that contrasts enough with the image in the background.

We are not responsible for the quality of the print if you do not respect these guidelines. If you have any additional questions, please reach out to us through our contact page and we will be happy to help.
