Full Color

Full Color images are printed using Cyan, Magenta, Yellow and Black (CMYK) with an opaque white underbase. Our Full Color option is recommended for complex graphics containing photographic elements or 4+ colors.

All colors should be CMYK process colors.

Use white only where you wish to have white printed.

Blues & Purples: For true blue tones use CMYK mixes that contain 30% more Cyan than Magenta. Conversely, colors with less than a 30% difference between Cyan & Magenta will have a purple tone.

Set Size

Submit your artwork right-reading (as it would look when applied to a garment). Our artists will mirror the image for you.

Send your artwork at the exact size that you want it to print. For example, If you select a 9"x12.75" sheet, but upload an image that is 8"x8", we will print your image at the size you uploaded (8"x8").

For gang sheets set our canvas/art board size to the dimension of the sheet size you select.


Check Small Details

To ensure fine details in your image print clearly make sure that the smallest areas are at least as thick as the minimum print tolerance
