If you choose to provide your own artwork, we will need a vector art file with each color on its own layer.

The following file types are acceptable:

• PDF (Only when editable as a layered file in Illustrator)
• Adobe Illustrator (File names ending in .ai)

JPG, PNG, GIF, WEBP, and other image formats will not work for screen printing. Hourly rates apply to recreate or redesign artwork not provided in the above formats.

Providing Pantone spot colors for each layer is also very helpful in maintaining the accuracy of your design during the printing process.
