Not all file types are created equal. Vector images are best for DTF Printing, but if working with raster images, PNGs are the better choice.

As with any CMYK printing process, DTF is limited to colors in the CMYK Range.

For free-floating lines (lines that are by themselves and not found in a bigger image), the minimum recommended line width is 0.019" (1.4 pt). Anything smaller may not stick to your garment.

Ideal pixel count for raster images is 300 DPI (dots per inch). Lower DPI's may result in pixelation when printing. The gang sheet builder will let you know if your image is low resolution.

The more show through (negative space) you have in the image, the more breathable it is. More show through also improves hand feel.

When submitting PNG files, makes sure that there are no semitransparent pixels on the design's edges as these may be printed as a thin white outline around your design.

Soft edges, or fadeouts (like the glow on the image) result in a white halo around the DTF print. One way to achieve a fadeout look without this halo is by applying the HALFTONE TECHNIQUE when designing

High Octane DTF will not be responsible for color differences between your digital artwork and the DTF transfer. PLEASE USE HEX NUMBERS IN THE COLOR GUIDE TO MAKE SURE YOU GET THE COLORS THAT YOU NEED.
