-DISCLAIMER: Double check lettering when utilizing fonts and ensure that they are no smaller than 1pt or 1.5. One of the biggest things we have issues with is fonts like cursive. The font creates smaller and larger parts of the lettering making some of the letters smaller than our required specs. We ask that you double check that all lettering is in our specs, if it is not then the printer will either not print it at all or will create patchy wording.

-DISCLAIMER: When sending transparency type images to us, keep in mind you are taking the base layer of the print away which will cause the overall color, strength, and washability to be significantly less than a normal print with no transparency. We do not recommend this method, especially on any colored shirts. the only color that this really works on is white. A white shirt only works, because it becomes the white base of the print which will keep the colors vibrant and accurate. If you were to put a transparent image on a black shirt, your colors are gonna be alot darker and very innaccurate.

GREAT QUESTION! When you have a logo that needs details under our specs, what we recommend doing is making the logo one piece. In the image to the left there are two badges, the one on the right has seperated details. Meaning its not a solid piece, the image allows the t shirt color to replace the color that would've been there. This kind of art work is amazing and makes the print alot lighter and breathable on any textile. But it is your worst nightmare when wanting details that are under spec, the machine wont even try to print under 1.0 line thickness. Now the badge on the left is one solid piece so the machine is able to print under our specs because it is a solid piece. Typically you will get 75 to 100% of the details that are under spec depending on the shape and size when you create the logo as one piece.
