Frequently asked questions
Ordering
-
What is a DTF transfer?
DTF stands for direct-to-film. Your design is printed onto transfer film and coated with adhesive powder. You heat-press it onto the garment, then peel the film away.
-
Builder, upload or by size: which should I use?
Use the Gang Sheet Builder to arrange loose designs on a 22.3 in wide sheet in your browser. Upload a gang sheet if your layout is already finished. Order by size when you want single transfers at an exact width and height.
-
How is a gang sheet priced?
By length. Builder sheets run from 1 ft to 60 ft, uploaded sheets from 1 ft to 40 ft. Each length has its own price, shown before you add it to your cart. See all lengths in the gang sheet size guide.
-
What's the difference between Regular DTF and UltraVivid™ 9C DTF?
They are our two DTF films. Each sheet length has a price for each film, and Regular DTF is the lower price per foot. The builder starts on Regular; upload starts on UltraVivid™ 9C. You can switch before checkout. Not sure which fits your job? Email info@dtfmoon.com.
-
Is there a minimum order?
No. There are no minimums and no setup fees. You can order a single 1 ft sheet.
-
Can I get my transfers pre-cut?
On DTF by size, pre-cut is an option at $0.35 per piece.

Files
-
What file types do you accept?
Upload PNG, PDF or TIFF. Use high-resolution artwork, 300 DPI where you can, and send it at the size you want it printed. The file guide has the details.
-
Will the printed colors match my screen?
Colors can look slightly different on screen than in print, depending on your screen, the fabric and the pressing. Minor color variation isn't treated as a defect.
Samples, UV and blanks
-
Do you have a sample pack?
Yes. The sample pack is $4.90 and includes DTF transfers and 3D UV DTF stickers, so you can check our print quality in hand. No artwork upload is needed. Shipping is charged at the standard rate.
-
Do UV DTF stickers need a heat press?
No. UV DTF stickers are peel-and-stick 3D transfers for hard surfaces such as glass, metal and wood.

Production and pressing
-
How long does production take?
Every order is printed to order. Ships within 24 hours, Monday–Friday. 1–3 day US delivery by UPS Express.
-
How do I press DTF transfers?
Peel hot: remove the film while the transfer is still warm. Every heat press runs a little differently, so test on a spare garment first. For press settings, email info@dtfmoon.com.
