In the bustling world of Direct to Film (DTF) printing, the adage "a picture is worth a thousand words" has never been more relevant. However, not all pictures are created equal. Just as a poorly written book can disappoint readers, even with a fantastic topic, low-quality artwork can turn a fantastic design into a disaster. At Armor Ink, we believe in the distinction between high and low quality and we strive to ensure every image we process resonates with clarity, precision, and brilliance. This commitment to quality, coupled with our dedication to customer education, is what sets Armor Ink miles apart from our competition.
To understand the distinction between high and low-quality artwork, it's crucial to grasp the basics of these three core concepts:
DPI is often the first metric that professionals turn to when evaluating image quality. Essentially, it measures how many dots (or pixels) are packed within one linear inch of an image.
Pixel-based (or raster) images are made up of tiny, colored squares. The number and arrangement of these squares determine the image's clarity, color, and overall quality.
Vector graphics are different from Pixel images. Instead of relying on colored squares, they use mathematical equations to map out an image.
We understand that not everyone is an expert in graphic design. That's why, when our customers upload their artwork—be it for gang sheets or specific sizes—we don't merely print it as-is. Instead, we offer an art upgrade service. This involves:
