BESPOKE PRINTING Q&A
Q. What fabrics can you print onto?
A. We can print onto a wide range of cotton, linen, viscose, and polyester fabrics. From stock we can print on the three bases shown here. Other bases are available on request. Please contact us for further clarification.
Q. What is the cost of custom fabric printing?
A. The price depends on the fabric quality you choose, quantity ordered and ink coverage of design. Please contact us for a quotation.
Q. What file types can you accept?
A. As a general rule it is best to send us the file in the native format of the application it was designed in. We can accept most file formats including; TIF, PSD, AI, AVA or JPG format. Please contact us if you need further clarification.
Q. What resolution should I create my design in?
A. Repeating tile files should be a minimum of 180dpi and a maximum of 300dpi at the desired print size.
Q. How will you colour match my design?
A. For our Print from File Service we will not colour manage your files – you are in complete control of that process: share your file with us, we then print and send you your finished fabric. We do recommend that you first order a printed sample on your chosen base cloth to ensure colours are as you want them before we print your fabric - this is one option or you can send your file and we will complete your order. For our Complete Design Service, you can share a hard-copy colour example or choose from our colour palette.
Q. Do you have a minimum or maximum production order for custom fabric printing?
A. We print from 1 metre to 1,000's of metres, there is no limit.
Q. What are your lead times?
A. Depending on the printing schedule we generally produce a sample within 3 days. For production meterage, most jobs can be completed within 2 weeks.
Q. Can I supply my own custom fabric for you to print on?
A. Yes - subject to surcharge and certain terms/conditions. We will also test your fabric for print suitability.
Q. How can I send my file to you?
A. The best way to send us files is through WeTransfer or a similar online file transfer service. These are typically free and very easy to use.
