Screen
printing is a traditional method of producing printed
clothing and printed workwear.
In order to screen print an item the design has to
be separate into the component colours.
This is done by vectored design programs such as Adobe
Illustrator or CorelDraw.
Each colour has it's own screen and the fine mesh
of the screen allow the colour to pass through onto
the garment.
Screen printing is the best way to print larger volumes
of clothing.
We
offer a digital printing service for smaller orders.
What
is the best file format and resolution for your artwork?
The best file format to send your artwork in is an
AI. (Adobe Indesign) file or high-resolution PSD file.
This
means your resolution should be at 300 DPI.
If
you can’t send your artwork as an AI or high-res
PDF, the next best way is a vector PDF
or a high-resolution PNG or JPEG. If you send artwork
files this way, make sure they are saved at 300
DPI and at the size you want your print to be.
By sending the logo you want as a 3” x 3”
left chest over as a 3” x 3” file, your
artwork won't be pixelated being scaled
up to a bigger size.
