Yes. Export as PNG with transparent background at 300 DPI. We recommend keeping designs simple (no complex layering) for best results. Canva's export sometimes reduces resolution—verify your exported file shows 300 DPI before upload.
Absolutely. Contract decorators and fulfillment centers commonly upload consolidated gang sheets with different customer designs. Include order numbers or customer names in your design labels (we won't print background text layers if you mark them properly).
Keep text at 12pt minimum (roughly 0.16″ tall) for best legibility. Fine details down to 3 pixels render successfully at 300 DPI. Complex halftones and gradients print beautifully—our 8-color printing captures smooth transitions.

Gang sheets are priced by height (up to 22″ maximum) × length. A 22″ × 60″ sheet equals 5 linear feet (60″ ÷ 12″). Use our calculator at checkout for instant pricing.
Our system validates files on upload and flags common issues (low resolution, wrong color mode, missing transparency). If technical problems arise during printing, we contact you immediately for file correction before proceeding. No surprise delays.
Yes. Standard white underbase works for 95% of designs. For very dark fabrics or extra-bright colors, add order notes requesting heavy white underbase (adds 0-2 hours to production time, no additional cost).
We offer metallic ink upgrade (+$0.50/sq ft) and glitter effects (+$0.75/sq ft). Add request in order notes. Neon colors print standard (no upcharge). UV-reactive inks available on request for specialty applications.
Our custom DTF gang sheets deliver consistent quality across small test runs and high-volume production batches. Every sheet meets commercial-grade standards with professional color accuracy and durability testing.

Follow these steps to prepare production-ready gang sheets:

Experienced DTF users ensure flawless results with these quality control steps:
✓ Maintain 0.25″ spacing minimum between all designs for trim allowance
✓ Convert text to outlines in vector files to prevent font substitution issues
✓ Embed all linked images to avoid missing asset errors
✓ Do not mirror designs—our RIP software handles mirroring automatically during printing
✓ Use RGB color mode for best color matching (avoid CMYK conversions)
✓ Add order notes for special requests: Metallic effects, glitter overlays, neon colors, or custom white underbase thickness
✓ Test small batches first: Upload 1-2 feet of new designs before committing to full production runs
✓ Include bleed for edge-to-edge prints: Add 0.125″ bleed on designs reaching sheet edges
