Single Image vs Gang Sheet

Single Image

single image heat transfer

Art submitted for a single image sheet can contain only one single, unique image. We define single images as a transfer sheet that is intended to be applied in one press. To make placement easy, each design comes cut to the size of the artwork you upload.

Single image sheets are great for:

    • One placement prints, like full front or back
    • Ecommerce fulfillment

Gang Sheet

gang sheet heat transfers

Art submitted for a gang sheet can contain as many images as can fit within the selected sheet. Use scissors or a paper cutter to cut apart your designs. We recommend leaving 0.25" - 0.5" space between each design.

Gang sheets are great for:

    • Multiple sizes and placements, like full back and left chest
    • Higher volume quantities of smaller designs, like tagless labels

Artwork Guidelines

artwork guideline example of small details

Printing Small Details With Athletic

To ensure fine details in your image print clearly make sure that the smallest areas are at least as thick as the minimum print tolerance.

      • 1, 2 or 3 color - areas smaller than 1 point or 0.014" may not print.
    • Full color - areas smaller than 3 points or 0.042" may not print.
      • Non-printing areas smaller than 2 points or 0.028" may fill in.

Save Your Artwork At The Exact Size You Want It To Print

For example, if you select a 9" x 12.75" sheet but upload an image that is 8" x 8", we will print your image at the 8" x 8" size you uploaded.

Don't Mirror Your Image

Submit your artwork as you want it to look on your garment. Our artists will mirror the image for you.
