How to create a UV DTF artwork sheet

We require print ready artwork, so it can be printed quickly and efficiently. The supplied artwork file should be sized accordingly along with the logos / design elements laid out within it.

UV DTF artwork needs to be created within a design area that matches the sheet size order.

For example; 55cm wide by 100cm high for our 55x100cm gang sheet

We advise the following requirements when creating UV DTF artwork sheets:

1. Title the document.
2. Set the sizing. eg. 55cm x 100cm.
3. Set the resolution. 300dpi (Pixels/Inch).
4. Set the Colour Mode. RGB Colour.
5. Set background contents. Transparent.
6. Set Colour Profile. Don’t Colour Manage.
7. Create the document.

Laying out logos / design elements

The sized artwork sheet can then be filled with the logos or design elements you require printing.

Logos / design elements can be the same – multiplied to cover the full sheet.
Or you can fill the sheet with different logos / design elements in various sizes and quantities.

Below are examples of UV DTF artwork sheet layouts (sized at 55cm x 100cm) with various designs / logos / sizes / quantities and the same design repetitively laid out on the sheet.
