Prepare Your Art
All files must be at least 300 ppi or Vector Format for screen printing. If your file is not 300 ppi, you cannot just increase the resolution of the file. This is called "upsampling" and will result in a blurry image. If you are creating your file in Adobe Illustrator or another Vector-based software, just size your image to the size you want it to print.

Accepted File Types
We accept the following File Types for Screen Printing:

• Illustrator (.AI)
• Vector (.EPS)
• Photoshop (.PSD)
• PDF
• JPEG
• TIFF

We prefer .AI or .EPS files first because Vector images can be scaled without affecting quality. We prefer .PSD or .PDF second & .JPG or .TIFF last.

Size Your Design
​Your screen print logo or design should be sized to the size it should be printed. If you want your print to be 10" wide, please be sure the actual design within the file is 10" wide, not just the background of your design file.

Working with Canva Templates
There are two types of files you need...

1. Your Artwork - The file we used to create the actual shirt
2. Tshirt Mock Up - The file we reference so we know where to put your design.

Designing your ARTWORK in Canva
You may need to resize your design to fit the shirt. **It's important to note, some capabilities within Canva require users to have the paid version of Canva. These include:

• Resizing the artboard with your designs. The artboards in Canva are auto set to 14” x 18”.
• Exporting PNG files with a transparent background.
  
  

When you're ready to export your designs, hit the ‘Share’ button > Downloads > PDF Print. Doing this will export the file with the necessary DPI resolution of 300 required for printing. For text based designs, we also recommend saving them as a PDF file. 

Designing your MOCK UP in Canva
Open the t-shirt template  by clicking the button below and place your design on the template to the size you would like it to appear on the shirt. 

When you're ready to export your designs, hit the ‘Share’ button > More > Template Link. Doing this will generate a link for us to reference and approve. Please also change the Collaboration Link to "Anyone with Link"​
