Artwork For Transfers
Not sure which transfer type is right for your artwork? We’re here to help. The best transfer method for your design depends on its complexity, number of colours, and intended use.
- Photographic or full-colour images are typically best suited to Dye Sublimation, Digital Print and Cut, or Digital Screen Transfers.
- Simple designs with limited colours often work best with Cold Peel Plastisol or Hot Split transfers.
You can upload your artwork using the form on this page, and our team will recommend the most suitable transfer type. The more information you provide such as quantity, transfer size, and garment material, the better advice we can give.
Vector vs Raster artwork
Raster files (e.g. JPEG, TIFF) are made of pixels. They’re ideal for photo-style designs and are suitable for Dye Sublimation, Digital Screen Transfers, or Digital Print and Cut. We recommend 300dpi or higher at actual print size for best results.
Vector files (e.g. .AI, .SVG, .EPS) use shape-based data and are ideal for screen-printed transfers like Plastisol or Hot Split. They maintain sharp edges at any size, making them perfect for bold designs, logos, and text. If you don’t have a vector version of your artwork, we can convert it for you as part of our artwork service.

Laying Out Your Transfer Sheets
For Digital Screen Transfers, Plastisol, and Hot Split, we print by the sheet. You have two options:
- Send individual designs – we’ll arrange the sheet layout for you with optimal spacing for cutting.
- Submit a full sheet layout – if you'd prefer full control, you can prepare the layout yourself. Refer to the specific transfer type pages for sheet sizes and layout specs.
