In this video, we talk about common T-Shirt design problems in DTG (direct to garment printing) we often notice. We mention Direct To Garment printing (DTG) because this is the printing method of choice of many Print-On-Demand (POD) platforms.
You can never make a bad design look good once printed. If one thing is true for direct to garment printing, then it would be this statement. It doesn’t matter if your printer’s output is excellent, all your processes are optimized, or if you are able to wash your products a million times before the colors start to fade. If the quality of the design you want to print is bad, the final result will look bad at all times. The print can never get better than the information it gets from the design files.
