How to Choose a DTF Transfer Design
Start with the garment and the placement of the finished graphic. A small chest design, full-front graphic, sleeve print, or back design requires different proportions, so consider the available print area before selecting artwork.
Next, look at the visual structure of the design. Detailed illustrations, lettering, logos, and full-color graphics can all work with DTF, but artwork quality matters. When preparing artwork, check image quality, color settings, text, edges, and the final dimensions before submitting the file.
Think about the garment color as well. Contrast between the artwork and apparel can make important elements easier to see. Avoid choosing a design only because it looks good on a screen; consider how its proportions, colors, and details will work at the actual transfer size.
