We recommend you create your artwork in Adobe InDesign or Adobe Illustrator and supply your file as a print-ready PDF, saved under PDF profile PDF/X-1a:2001. Please submit your files as 1 layer without transparencies. Due to the t-shirt screen printing process we use, colours should be used from the Pantone® Coated Library only. We cannot accept CMYK, RGB or unnamed spots.
Slim Fit T-shirts are printed single or double sided using up to four Pantone® (PMS/spot) colours. These Pantone® colours should be 100% colours as gradients and percentages of a colour cannot be reproduced using this print process.
To print in black or white, please use the colours Pantone Black C and Pantone White. For white t-shirts, please do not represent white as a solid colour on your artwork. Please also do not represent the colour of your t-shirt in your artwork file, for example do not provide a black background on your artwork for a black t shirt.
- Please ensure colours do not overlap in your design.
- Outline or embed fonts.
- Please ensure the design is fully vectorised and does not use bitmap images.
- Submit your files without cut marks or printer marks.
For optimal printing, we recommend lines should be at least 1.5pt and text should be at least size 14pt. For light and decorative lettering, we recommend a font size of at least 28pt.
