File formats for textile printing

The right format at the right time: a complete guide to accepted formats in textile personalization.

Recommended vector formats

SVG, AI, EPS, vector PDF: scalable without loss, ideal for embroidery and DTF.

Bitmap if necessary

Transparent PNG at 300 DPI minimum, at final print size. Avoid JPGs (compression).

Colour mode

CMYK for DTF (calibrated on our presses), Pantone for embroidery (thread matching).

Outline your fonts

Always convert text to outlines before exporting, to avoid missing-font issues on the printer's side.
