Embroidery FAQs
Not all designs are suitable for embroidery due to the nature of the process. Embroidery works best with simple, bold designs and text-based graphics. Designs with intricate details, small text, or gradients may need to be simplified to ensure the best results. Additionally, embroidery is limited to a maximum of six thread colors, so designs with more complex color schemes might require color adjustments to match the closest available thread colors.
- The preferred file format for embroidery is a high-resolution vector file, such as .SVG, .PDF, or .EPS. If a vector file is not available, you can use a high-resolution (300 DPI) .PNG file. The design should be true to size to ensure accuracy during the digitization process.
- The minimum thickness for lines and shapes in your design should be at least 0.05 inches. This is crucial to ensure that the stitches can accurately capture the details without breaking or merging.
- For text, lowercase letters should be at least 0.25 inches in height, and uppercase letters should start from 0.3 inches. Text smaller than 0.18 inches may not embroider clearly and could be omitted during the digitization process.
- Embroidery is limited to a maximum of six thread colors per design. Gradients and complex color schemes are difficult to replicate, so it’s best to use solid colors that closely match the available thread options.
- Avoid small areas of negative space or gaps in your design, as these can affect stitching accuracy. Fill these areas with solid background colors to ensure the best results.
- Before your design can be embroidered, it must go through a digitization process, where it is converted into a stitch file that the embroidery machine can read. This process may involve simplifying your design or adjusting colors to match the closest available thread options.
Digitization is the process of converting your artwork into a stitch file that the embroidery machine can read and then use for sewing onto a product. This process may also involve simplifying your design or modifying the colors to our library's closest available thread color.
Please note that the digitization process incurs a one-time setup fee. The good news is that once your design is digitized, the file can be reused for any repeat orders so you can expect a consistent outcome every time.
