Our two preferred file types are Adobe Illustrator files and Adobe Photoshop files. These are the most commonly used file types in screen printing. Illustrator files are vector based graphics and photoshop files are bitmap or raster images.
Whats the difference and why does it matter?
Illustrator Files use vector graphics. A single vector is a line between two points.
Vectors can be used to create shapes, lines, polygons, in fact any shape imaginable. The software thinks of it as a mathematical formula- for example, the user creates a line on a 45º angle from point A to point B for a distance of 50mm and is 2mm wide.
The software draws the line based on this data rather than each pixel. Therefore vector graphics are infinitely scalable – if it’s 50mm in length or 5 metres in length the relationship between the points will always be the same.
Vector graphics are ideal for screen printing. A designer can create a vector graphic and that graphic can then be applied to anything from a business card to building signage with no loss of quality. However, vector cannot be used to efficiently draw photo images.
Illustrator files must have all fonts converted to outlines. This turns the fonts into vector graphics and eliminates any possible font conflicts or issues with missing fonts that you may have used and that we may not have.
Submitted images should use standard pantone colors instead of the standard illustrator color pallet so that we can accurately match ink colors.
Photoshop files or raster images. Raster graphics, also known as bitmap graphics, is a digital image made from pixels which are points of colour and are commonly used on photo images.
Raster graphics are resolution dependent – this means it cannot be scaled larger without losing quality.
This loss of quality makes images look pixelated (the ragged square-like look you see when a raster image is enlarged too far).
Images that are pulled off the web are not good images to use for screen printing. Web images are usually optimized to be as small as possible to keep their file size small and help a page load faster. This is great for a web page but not for printing. Please do not send us web images for printing.
If using raster images they must be created and submitted at the same size that they are to be printed. They need to be at a resolution of at least 200 dots per inch and no more than 300 dots per inch to keep file sizes manageable.
You can see why vectored images are the preferred file type.
Whats the minimum order?
The standard minimum order for embroidery is 24 pieces, We can do smaller runs on request with prior approval.
There are price breaks at starting at quantities of 48, 72, 144, 288 and 576 pcs.
Digitizing is free on orders over 144 pcs*. The more you order the more you’ll save.
* Up to 10,000 stitches.
What is digitizing?
Digitizing is the process of taking the customer’s artwork and converting the design into a computer file which the embroidery machine can then read.
This digitized file sometimes referred to as a tape, tells the embroidery machine exactly where to place each stitch.
Our digitizing prices start at $39 for up to 5000 stitches. Over 5000 stitches is charged at $10 per additional 1000 stitches.
Can I mix colors and styles?
Absolutly, as long as the thread colors in the design don’t change dramatically we can embroider your design on multiple colors without incurring extra charges.
Keep in mind some designs lend themselves to being embroidered on different colored shirts better than others. There are certain designs may need additional revisions to embroider correctly on different colors. This can usually be accomplished for nominal fee. Please let us know in advance if you plan on embroidering on mixed colors or goods.
When will my order be completed?
