Artwork Information and Guidelines
Most problems associated with poor print quality are a direct result of poor artwork. For our printing purposes, we accept artwork that adheres to the following requirements:
- Artwork must be in CMYK mode -
- Minimum resolution of 150 dpi -
- Maximum resolution of 200 dpi -
- Must be PDF, PSD, TIFF, or EPS -
- Must contain a TRANSPARENT background -
- Artwork must be sized to print -
- All colors must be adjusted appropriately -
- There should only be TWO layers in the image; the actual image layer, and the background layer (which should be easily removable). All other layers must be merged together into the image layer, with NO text or additional layers present -
If the client is unwilling or unable to submit artwork in the proper format at an acceptable level of quality for output, then the client has two choices:
a) We will be more than willing to create custom artwork, touch up client supplied artwork or convert improper file formats before print time, and an art setup fee of $25 per half hour will be charged. This fee will be charged any time we are required to run artwork through our art department, even for minor adjustments!
b) Client may opt for us to print the garments using the artwork as is. If this is the case, then we can not be held responsible for the final quality of the print! The client understands this and agrees to waive any claims to dispute after the job is completed. Client may request press approval before the entire job is printed, however we will not be held responsible for the delays this may cause while awaiting client approval on the print. Also, if any changes are requested after press approval, additional artwork fees will be applied. All final artwork, including any major or minor changes, must be submitted in writing and signed before any printing will be started.
We will be adding artwork tips and tricks, as well as videos and how-to's, very soon! Please check back often.
