Ensure text and lines have a minimum height of 0.25" (6.4mm) and a thickness of 0.05" (1.3mm) for standard stitching.

For lines thinner than the minimum requirement, a run stitch will be used.

Opt for embroidery-specific designs as complex graphics suitable for Direct-to-Garment (DTG) printing may not translate well to embroidery.

Utilize vector images in PDF format or PNG files with a resolution of at least 150 DPI. Choose designs with solid shapes and colors over photographic images.

Use solid colors and designs, filling any empty space to maintain the integrity of the edges.

Avoid distressed or textured graphics.

Use small, simple designs on thin garments to ensure quality and durability. Large, intricate embroidery designs necessitate a high stitch count, potentially straining delicate fabrics.

Design your embroidery slightly larger than desired. The embroidery process involves stretching the garment, resulting in a final design slightly smaller than the submitted file.

Use a transparent background whenever possible.

Minimize background elements in large areas to stay within the stitch count limit. If a background is necessary, consider scaling down graphics by up to 50%.

For optimal results in side embroidery areas, limit text to 10 characters per line.
