Artwork Requirements

Files that print best are:

  • .eps
  • .pdf
  • Artwork within the file can be flattened/rasterized, but a vector file is required to have the cut path indicated by a vector stroke line.

File Requirements

  • Set up to file to the size you’re ordering the product as. 
  • Cut line is indicated with a vector stroke line. Pink is the preferred color.
  • Convert all text to outlines.
  • Make sure no elements are selected for "Overprint"

*We recommend choosing rich black (100-100-100-100) over CMYK (0-0-0-100). Rich black is true black — it has a less charcoal gray appearance *

We print in four color CMYK or six color CMYKLcLm. Please keep this in mind when submitting files for printing as color tone shifting may happen if file is submitted in RGB format. If there is a specific PMS color you need, please specify that to us when submitting your order so we can help you verify that the proper color mix is used (vector artwork only).

Customer supplied files are printed as they are received so we cannot guarantee color, clarity or final output as we are just printing the supplied files and have not set them up for printing.

If you are concerned about the file output we will be happy to do a test print for a nominal fee prior to final order if requested.

All our printers are calibrated daily to International Color Consortium (ICC) coloring profile standards to ensure accurate color production.

More About UV DTF Decals

The main difference between these transfer decals and other decal products is that only your image remains behind. 

The three layers of these adhesive marvels are:

  1. DTF Transfer Paper (Backing): This is the bottom layer. It protects the adhesive until you are ready to apply the decal.
  2. Printed Decal Layer: The decal design lives on this layer. Using UV inks that are cured directly onto the surface, this layer provides strong adhesion for a long-lasting bond to your application surface.
  3. DTF Transfer Film (Clear Top Layer): This top layer keeps your design in place during application, making it easy to position. Once applied, you simply peel away the film to reveal your finished design with vibrant, detailed colors.

Frequently Asked Questions Return to Top

What is a DTF transfer decal (UV DTF decal)?

A DTF (Direct-to-Film) transfer decal is a peel-and-stick adhesive transfer printed on clear film with durable, UV-cured inks. It’s not an iron-on and does not require heat to apply.

What are UV DTF transfer decals commonly used for?

They’re commonly used for logos, lettering, and designs on products, equipment, vehicles, and drinkware like tumblers.

What surfaces work best for UV DTF decals?

They apply best to clean, smooth, non-porous surfaces like glass, metal, plastic, tile, and smooth painted surfaces.

Can I apply UV DTF decals on textured surfaces?

It’s not recommended—texture can prevent full contact and reduce adhesion, so smooth surfaces work best.

Can I reposition a UV DTF decal after applying it?

No—UV DTF decals are not repositionable and are intended for permanent placement, so align carefully before pressing down.

Yes—UV DTF decals are designed for outdoor use with fade-resistant, durable inks.
