The right file format
- Vector (AI, EPS, vector PDF) : the ideal format. The logo can be enlarged without quality loss, for a perfectly sharp result.
- High-resolution PNG : acceptable if the logo is large enough and on a transparent background.
- To avoid : a screenshot, an image taken from social media or a small JPG. The result may be blurred or pixelated.
Only have the logo from your business card or website? Don’t worry: our graphic studio can retouch or redraw it to ensure a sharp, professional print.
Colours
If your brand guide includes Pantone references, please include them in your request: they help us reproduce your colours accurately. A few points to note:
- On dark textiles, a dark logo becomes hard to read. Provide a light (or white) version of your logo.
- The number of colours affects the choice of technique and the price in screen printing and flex; in DTF it matters much less.
- For embroidery, each colour corresponds to a thread: favour solid colour fills rather than gradients.
Size and placement
- Left chest : a discreet logo, the most common format for corporate clothing.
- Centre chest : a more prominent design.
- Back : the largest format, ideal for a team name or a large design.
- Sleeve : an original detail, often used as a complement.
Very fine text and small characters lose legibility, especially in embroidery. If your logo contains a small slogan, we may suggest a simplified version for small formats.
Embroidery tips: simplify without betraying the design
- Avoid gradients and drop shadows: embroidery favours clear outlines.
- Choose a thick textile (sweatshirt, polo shirt, softshell): a fabric that’s too thin may pucker.
- Dare contrasts, or on the contrary go tone-on-tone for a very elegant effect.
For more: embroidered sweatshirt, embroidered polo and embroidered cap.
