Manual Artwork Check Illinois – Ensure Perfect Print Quality
Ensure Flawless Prints with Axo Transfers’ Manual Artwork Check in Illinois
At Axo Transfers, we understand how important it is that every design you print looks exactly how you envisioned it. That’s why we offer our Manual Artwork Check service — a professional, hands-on review process that ensures your DTF, UV DTF, and sticker artwork files are 100% print-ready before production.
From Chicago to Peoria, Joliet, Springfield, and across Illinois, our team inspects your designs manually for alignment, color accuracy, sizing, and resolution, guaranteeing that your final print comes out crisp, vibrant, and perfectly positioned every single time.
🧾 What Is a Manual Artwork Check?
A Manual Artwork Check is a pre-production file inspection done by our expert print team to verify that your design meets all DTF printing standards. Instead of relying on automated software, we review every element by hand to prevent costly errors or print issues.
During this process, our team checks:
-
✅ Image resolution (minimum 300 DPI)
-
✅ File transparency (no white backgrounds unless intended)
-
✅ Edge cleanup and border alignment
-
✅ Proper sizing and scaling for gang sheets
-
✅ Color accuracy and underbase settings
-
✅ File format compatibility (PNG, SVG, or AI)
Once your artwork is approved, it’s sent directly to our DTF production line — guaranteeing professional, print-ready results.

💡 Best Practices for Submitting Your Artwork
To get the most out of your Manual Artwork Check, follow these expert file preparation tips:
-
Use Transparent PNG Files
Always export your design as a PNG with a transparent background. This ensures no unwanted white boxes or edges appear in your print. -
Design at Actual Size
If your print should be 10” wide, make sure the design file is exactly that size before uploading. Avoid scaling after upload. -
Keep Resolution at 300 DPI or Higher
This ensures your prints look sharp and detailed — especially for small logos or text. -
Convert Fonts to Outlines
For vector files (AI, SVG), convert text into outlines so fonts display properly during printing. -
Remove Background Layers
Only keep visible artwork — unnecessary layers can cause unwanted prints or ghosting. -
Double-Check Spacing on Gang Sheets
Leave at least 0.25 inches between designs for clean cutting and separation.
