All-Over Print Backpack

Must-follow guidelines

1. Submit files in PNG or JPEG format with at least 150 DPI
   We recommend using PNG for designs with a transparent background. For other designs, we advise preparing files in JPEG instead.
2. Create files in sRGB color profile
   To ensure your design looks the same when printed as it does on screen, make sure you create your print file win sRGB color profile.
3. Use full-bleed images
   To ensure maximum coverage, use full-bleed images with graphics that span across the entire dimension of the document. However, if your design covers only a part of the print area, make sure it has a transparent background and submit the image in PNG format.
4. Adhere to the safe print area
   All-over product files are scalable, so keep all important graphics or text within the safe print area to avoid missing design elements on the finished product.
5. Remove print file template guidelines
   If you use our downloadable templates, delete the guide layers before saving your files. If you don’t delete them, they’ll show up on the print.

Tips for best results

• Favor patterns and full-bleed images
  Any space that isn’t covered by your design will show the bare fabric, that’s why patterns and full-bleed images usually turn out the best.
• Don’t use adjacent colors
  Since designs tend to look darker when printed, colors that are too close in value to each other can end up blending together. Keep in mind that the mockup image might not accurately reflect the print outcome of adjacent colors. We recommend increasing the contrast for a better exposure and avoiding colors that are too close in value.
• Include branding in the design
  This all-over print product doesn’t have an inside label option. If you’d like your logo printed, include it in your design.

Cut & Sew disclaimers

• We can’t guarantee exact placement.
• It’s not possible to perfectly align patterns or images from front to back. 
• Elements outside the safe print area are not guaranteed to appear fully on the finished product.
• In case of low fabric stock, we might use comparable fabric to fulfill the order. The substitute will be as close to the original as possible.
• The color white can’t be printed on all-over print products. Any white or transparent elements of your designs can end up being the color of the fabric if the product has other darker color layers (e.g. a duffle bag has a black fusing on the inside). We suggest not using white or transparent elements in your all-over print designs to guarantee the best print results.
