3. Use the appropriate software and file format for the job
4. Use appropriate color mode and resolution
5. Convert or send fonts
6. Send us artwork on a floppy disk, CD, Zip disk or e-mail
7. Include a printed proof of your design
8. Film Positive Art – Film positive art means that the image can be burned to a screen without any additional preparation.

Film Positive Art

Film Positive art means that the artwork can be printed to a screen without any additional preparation.

You may provide us with artwork that is not process-ready, and we will prepare it for screen printing. This may be necessary if you are not proficient with the appropriate software, or if you choose to hand draw your design. There will be a charge for this final preparation. Contact the Artwork Department at artdept@gorfam.com to find out more.

Spot Color or Process Color

Most designs work best as spot color designs. This means that the design is made up of specific individual colors.
