Puff Screen Printed Heat Transfers

1. Save your art file in an acceptable format

• Recommended file types: PDF, AI, EPS or PSD

• Accepted file types: PDF, AI, EPS, PSD, JPG, PNG or TIFF

Please note that all files are reviewed to ensure they meet our internal printing specs for a quality reproduction of your artwork.  Be sure you save your art as a CMYK file. Do not upload RGB artwork.  If using Corel Draw, please save your file as a PDF before submitting.

2. Send your artwork at the exact size that you want it to print.

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"). You are responsible for confirming the size of your artwork. If you need help, we can provide artwork services for an additional fee.

Do not upload your artwork in "Mirror Image".

3. Submit artwork with 2 colors that do not touch or overlap.

We recommend submitting artwork in the 2 colors you choose only so we know exactly what you're looking to print for your puff transfer.  Colors should not touch or overlap as when the puff expands during application it can distort your flat color areas.

4. Convert all text to outlines

Make sure your fonts are not “live fonts” they should be converted to non-editable vectors.

5. Check your line weights

For puff printing, all lines need to be a minimum weight of 2 pts. All negative spaces need to be a minimum thickness equivalent to 4 pts. We recommend avoiding fine details and small text for puff prints.
