Use this guide to prepare artwork for a custom print order with Perfect Print. Clear, correctly sized files help us reproduce your design accurately.

DTF transfers and gang sheets

  • Preferred file: PNG with a transparent background. JPG/JPEG and WebP files can also be used in the online builder.
  • Resolution: Prepare raster artwork at 300 PPI at the exact final print size.
  • Size: Set each design to the dimensions you want printed. Do not rely on us to resize it.
  • Fine detail: Keep lines at least 0.02 inch thick. Tiny text and very fine details may not reproduce cleanly.
  • Orientation: Do not mirror the artwork.
  • Background: Remove unwanted white or colored backgrounds. Check soft edges, glow, and shadows before uploading.

Before uploading

  1. Check spelling, names, dates, and the number of designs.
  2. View the artwork at its intended print size to catch pixelation or thin lines.
  3. Confirm that transparent areas are truly transparent and that nothing is cut off at the edges.
  4. For a gang sheet, leave space between designs and keep everything inside the 12-inch-wide print area.

Other printed products

Artwork needs can vary for banners, signs, business cards, apparel, and gifts. Start with the highest-quality original file available and use the size and upload instructions on the specific product page. If a product needs bleed, a safe area, or a particular file format, follow its product instructions before ordering.
