Ordering Custom DTF Transfers Has Never Been Easier
Step 1: Prepare Your Artwork
The quality of your DTF transfer starts with your artwork file. Here's what you need:
File format: PNG with a transparent background is ideal. PDF and AI files are also accepted.
Resolution: 300 DPI minimum for sharp, professional results. Low-resolution files will print blurry.
Color mode: RGB color mode. DTF printing uses CMYK inks, but submit your file in RGB for the most accurate color output.
No white background: Make sure your design has a transparent (checkered) background, not a white one — unless white is part of your design.
Pro Tips:
Avoid Glows & Shadows: Transparent glows or soft drop shadows can sometimes print with a white "halo." Use solid colors for the cleanest edges.
Check Your Lines: Ensure all lines are at least 2 pixels thick; anything thinner may not pick up enough adhesive to bond to the fabric.
True Transparency: Double-check that your "background" is actually transparent and not just a solid white box.
Don't Mirror: Upload your design exactly as you want it to look. Our software handles the mirroring for you!
Step 2: Choose Your Transfer Type
At Make It Personal, we offer two main options:
Individual transfers: Single designs printed and cut to size. Great for one-off orders or testing a new design.
Gang sheets: Multiple designs arranged on a single large sheet. The most cost-effective option for decorators who need several different designs or multiples of the same design.
Not sure which to choose? If you have more than 2–3 designs to order, a gang sheet almost always saves you money.
Step 3: Select Your Size
For gang sheets, choose the sheet size that fits your designs. Our sizes range from 22" x 24" all the way up to 22" x 240".
A few guidelines:
Measure your designs and add them up to estimate how much sheet space you need.
Leave about 0.25" between designs for clean cutting.
When in doubt, size up — you can always fill extra space with duplicates of your best-selling designs.
Step 4: Upload Your File & Place Your Order
Once your artwork is ready and you've selected your size:
Visit our gang sheet product page and select your size.
Upload your print-ready PNG file using the file upload field.
Add to cart and complete checkout.
You'll receive an order confirmation email with your proof details.
Step 5: Receive & Store Your Transfers
Our transfers will arrive rolled or flat, depending on the size. To keep them in top condition:
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
Keep them flat or loosely rolled — avoid sharp creases.
DTF transfers have a shelf life of 12–24 months when stored properly.
