DTF printing in Springfield, MO. Full color, no minimums.

DTF stands for direct-to-film. Your design is printed in full color onto a transfer film and then heat-pressed into the fabric. It handles unlimited colors, fine detail, and photographic images — with no minimum order quantity.

Yes — one shirt, one hoodie, one anything. DTF has no setup screens, so single items are affordable. It's a favorite for gifts, birthdays, memorials, and try-before-you-commit samples of a bigger design.

Very. Washed inside-out in cold water, a quality DTF print stays bright and crack-free for years. We use films and powders we've tested ourselves — if it wouldn't hold up on our own shirts, we don't sell it.

Choose DTF for small quantities, photo-real or many-color designs, and mixed fabric types. Choose screen printing for bigger runs of simpler designs, where per-shirt cost drops fast. We'll always point you to the method that gets you the best result for your budget.

Most of them. Cotton tees, 50/50 blends, polyester performance shirts, hoodies, crewnecks, long sleeves and tote bags all take a DTF print well, on light or dark fabric. If you have a specific item in mind, ask and we'll tell you straight whether DTF is the right fit.

They suit different jobs. Sublimation dyes the design into polyester, so it only works on white or light polyester, but it can never crack or peel and it covers a whole garment edge to edge. DTF works on cotton, blends and polyester in any color, which makes it the more flexible choice for a printed logo or design. For all-over jerseys we usually recommend sublimation; for nearly everything else, DTF or screen printing.

A vector file (AI, EPS, SVG or PDF) or a high-resolution PNG with a transparent background gives the cleanest result. If all you have is a photo, a sketch or a low-resolution logo, send it anyway. Our artists can clean it up, and you'll approve a proof before we print.

It depends on how many pieces you need, the size of the print, how many print locations, and the garment you choose. The number of colors doesn't change the price, which is why DTF is such a good deal for detailed, full-color art.
