Embroidery Design Guidelines

Existing Embroidered Designs
If your design has previously been digitized for embroidery and you have it on disk you can e-mail the file to us. Files must be in Tajima *.dst extension or Melco *.exp extension.
New Embroidery Designs
If you need us to make any changes to your logo we will need Vector based artwork in an .EPS format. If we are creating an embroidered logo from exiting artwork, we can work with the following file types: .AI, .EPS, .TIFF, .JPG, .BMP, .CDR OR .PDF.

Send Us Your Artwork
Photo-based file types such as .JPG, .BMP or .TIFF must be at least 300 dpi or better. Please provide your artwork in the colors in which you would like it to appear. Gradiations and halftones will not work for embroidery. If you do not have a logo or do not have access to these file types we are happy create the artwork for you for a nominal fee.

Media Types
We are PC based and are able to read the following Media: 3.5" floppy (PC formatted) diskettes, 100MB Zip Disks; and CD ROM.

Proofing
It is essential that all artwork sent via e-mail include a composite .JPG file. This gives us an image to match our output to which helps us avoid any font conversions or gliches with your design. If you are unable to provide this, please print out your artwork and fax it to us at 651-698-4084. You will have the opportunity to preview and approve your design before it goes into production. Any changes to your design after it has been approved for production may result in additional charges.

Sizing
When providing artwork please submit it at the size in which you would like it to be embroidered. If you are unsure of what size might be appropriate our Customer Service Representative will be glad to assist you.

We have over 40 stock thread colors in today's most popular colors. Thread colors differ from PMS (Pantone) ink colors but we have included a reference chart for your information.

We are adding new colors all the time to our stock list, so if you don't see a color you want, please ask!
