Screen Printing
At Southside Sports we use Corel Draw exclusively. It is a Vector art based program that works best in the world of screen printing and embroidery. Its file name is cdr., we are currently using version 14. With Embroidery we use Tajima Pulse software its file name is pxf. We can also open dst. Files
We prefer Vector art files that are not bitmap embedded images saved in a .cdr (CorelDraw), .eps or .pdf.
Please remember to convert all text to outlines or curves as opposed to fonts.
All other formats may require additional art charges of $45.00 per hour. ($20.00 minimum.)
“Other” formats include Non-Vector Flies
Non-vector flies are nothing more than a picture, a guide to recreate the art from scratch. These files are known as (jpegs., Bitmaps, tif., or gif.) They are not vector art files. Also when they are saved as pdf., or eps. It is still a picture file. The art will still need to be recreated from scratch. If this is the only form available we need it to try and have a dpi resolution of 300 or better. ANY (jpegs., PNG, Bitmap, tif., or gif.) Can be saved in a pdf. and eps. But that will NOT MAKE THEM A VECTOR FILE, They are still jpegs. This is called embedded.
PLEASE NO WORD DOC. Or Excel FILES!! For Art Word processors and spreadsheet or presentation applications, although suitable for creating files for office or Internet use, are not recommended for creating digital art for print. So in simple words, we can’t use them. Have the image saved in a different format.
