DTF guide
DTF artwork requirements
File specifications
Preferred file formats
PNG · SVG
PNG with transparency or vector SVG gives the cleanest edges.
Resolution
300 DPI
Recommended at print size. Low-resolution artwork may appear blurry or pixelated.
Background
Transparent
Transparent background preferred. Files with solid backgrounds print exactly as submitted.
Width
Max 22″
Maximum width is 22 inches. Length depends on the gang sheet size you select.
Orientation
Do not mirror
Upload artwork in normal orientation. We print exactly as provided.
Colour mode
RGB
RGB files are recommended for the most accurate DTF colour.
The most common mistake
Upload it the way it should read.
DTF transfers are produced from your file as-is. Don't flip or mirror your design; that's handled in production.
