File Types and Requirements

Each imprint method needs specific files to produce a high quality final product. These files include:

• .PNG formatted files [Digital Printing processes and Direct to Garment Printing]
  • provide a transparent background in with the design [avoids a white box around the logo or design]
  • use RGB colors which digital printing also uses
  • smaller files which are easier to efficiently store
• .EPS formatted files [Engraving, Support digital printing production files]
• .DST formatted files [Embroidery machine supported files]
• .PDF formatted Thread Sequence in conjunction with the .DST instructs the machine operator what threads to use throughout the embroidery process
