Production-ready artwork for print shops
Send us your artwork and production details. We prepare print files and client mockups around the specifications you provide, helping you move from customer approval to production with a clearer workflow.
What we prepare
- Spot-color & simulated-process separationsChannels ready to output, with registration, trapping and underbase per your specs.
- DTF file preparationClean edges, correct resolution and transparent backgrounds for gang sheets.
- Vector reconstructionLow-res or damaged logos rebuilt as clean, scalable vector files.

How it works
- Send the artwork plus your specs: method, colors/Pantones, print size, garment color and mesh or film requirements.
- We review the file and confirm scope and price. If it needs a redraw, we quote it separately for your approval before starting — small fixes may be free with your order.
- You receive a proof or client mockup to approve.
- We deliver the production files. Please confirm them against your press setup before printing.

Questions before you order
Do I need to provide the garments?
No. We can source them for you from our catalog (S&S Activewear and SanMar), or you can bring your own. If you supply the garments, we’re not responsible for pieces damaged during printing — we recommend bringing one or two extras.
Can I send my own artwork?
Yes — PDF, PNG, JPG, AI, EPS, PSD or SVG, up to 10 MB. If the file is low resolution or not production-ready, we’ll tell you before starting: a redraw is quoted separately for your approval, and small fixes may be free with your order.
Does the price include the garments?
Decoration prices don’t include garments or Illinois sales tax. Garments are quoted separately. Screen printing has a setup fee per color/location, and full-color orders of 1–2 pieces carry a small-order surcharge. Your quote lists every item.
How long does an order take?
Standard production is 7–10 business days. Rush orders may be possible from 3 business days for an extra fee. Your delivery date is confirmed once you approve the quote and mockup.
How do payments work?
Decoration orders require a 50% deposit to start production. Your garments are made to order and can’t be sold to anyone else, so the deposit confirms the order for both of us. The remaining 50% is due at pickup or delivery.
I don’t have a design. Can you help?
Yes. We create custom designs from an idea, a sketch or a reference — for your shirts, your business or anywhere you need them. You don’t need a print shop or a print order with us to use this service.
Can I order artwork only?
Yes. Vectorization, custom design, color separations and mockup packages are available without buying garments.
When do I approve the mockup?
After your quote, we send a digital mockup showing placement, size and colors. Production starts once you approve it and pay the 50% deposit. The mockup is included with decoration orders we produce.
