What the customer sees
Shoppers upload their artwork, size each piece to real inches, and pack a gang sheet at your exact roll width — fitting as many transfers as they need. A live DPI badge sits on every piece so the whole sheet holds up at press. You print, powder, cure and ship film — no pressing, no cutting.
Every PrintKit builder is touch-first, so the same experience works on a phone.
| Control | What the shopper does |
|---|---|
| Your designs | Uploads one or many transfers onto the sheet. |
| Auto-Nest / Clear | Packs the sheet tight to your roll width, or clears it. |
| Selected design | Types an exact width and height in inches, centers it, adds copies, or deletes it. |
| Aspect lock | On by default so art can't stretch. Unlocking it warns that width and height then move independently. |
| Remove background | Turns a solid background transparent on a placed transfer, where you have the feature enabled. |
| Sheet size & quantity | Picks the film size you sell and how many sheets. |
What you configure
| Setting | What it controls |
|---|---|
| Film sizes & prices | The gang-sheet / film sizes you sell and the price of each. |
| Feed type | Roll or sheet, so nesting matches how your DTF film feeds. |
| Roll width | Transfers auto-nest to your real roll width, set in initial setup, so the sheet prints edge to edge without waste. |
| Rush | Optional rush fee, set per shop. Off means no rush charge is ever applied. |
| Background removal | Whether shoppers get the one-tap Remove background button on a placed transfer. |
What arrives in the work ticket & print file
- A packed, ready-to-print DTF file nested to your roll width, at 300 DPI.
- Exact real-life sizing. Each transfer exports at the physical inches the shopper typed — what they see and type is exactly what prints.
- Work ticket listing every transfer and its size, the sheet quantity, rush and export DPI, plus the mockup and the customer's contact details.
Print-ready, not press-ready-for-you. DTF output is the film file and the ticket. Powdering, curing and pressing stay on your side — PrintKit doesn't claim any part of that. There are no cut contours on a DTF gang sheet.
DPI is a warning, never a blocker. The per-piece badge flags art that is small for its printed size and the shopper is asked to confirm before adding it, but they can still order.
