Which tool when? Flat solid background → Remove a color (free, instant, cleanest edges). Baked checkerboard → ⌗ Remove checkerboard (free). Busy photos, big soft glows, or art that shares colours with its background → AI remove bg (1 AI action). The touch-up brush fixes stray leftovers in any of them.
Removes the thin outline/halo left around art after background removal. Works in every mode — raise it until the outline disappears (usually 1–2). 0 = off. AI cutouts land with a light auto-defringe (1px) already applied — adjust from there if needed.
Semi-transparent areas (soft edges, fades, removed backgrounds) print with thin white ink under them, so the film/garment greys the colours out. Raise White underbase → Strength to push partial transparency toward solid — the RIP then lays a full white layer and colours stay vibrant. X-ray highlights the thin areas (yellow → magenta = thinner) so you can see the problem before you print; View white film shows exactly where white will print, and screen printers can export it as a choked 5th film.
Distress adds worn texture: pick a style (dots/lines/splatter/wood/streaks), then dial amount, angle, and spacing. "Under distress" toggles whether it sits over the halftone or a solid fill. Halftone fade makes the dots shrink across the design — Linear (pick a direction) or Radial — the classic vintage fade-out, even on flat solid art. Dot size normally follows the art's tone; fade adds that variation when the art is flat. The Artwork tab's Finish tools clean the art itself: Remove stray pixels (floating specks the eraser can't catch), Smooth & round edges (jaggies + pinholes), and Add outline (sticker-style keyline, any color). Each bakes your background removal first and is one Cmd/Ctrl+Z from undone.
Set the physical size (inches/cm) + DPI. This drives the halftone frequency so dots are physically correct at any size, sets the export resolution, and embeds the DPI in the PNG. Off = the manual Cell-size slider is used instead.
A small image can't be exported large and stay sharp. Aim for ~300 DPI at your finish size:
Too small? Use AI upscale (works best from ~1000px+). AI-generated art is ~1024px — upscale it before large prints. Print setup shows a live DPI check for your exact image.
Pick a garment colour to preview how it prints, or leave it on Film for the transparent production file. Export PNG gives the film/proof; the Format picker above the button also offers CMYK TIFF — a flattened, real-CMYK print file with DPI embedded for DTG/offset/RIP workflows (PNG can't hold CMYK). In CMYK mode, Export separations gives the plates — plus the white underbase as a 5th film when you've set a strength.
Presets save your entire look — mode, screen, dots, distress, underbase, print size — and re-apply it to any image in one click (stored in this browser). Batch export runs up to 24 images through the current settings and downloads one zip. Both live below the Export button.
Tips: zoom with the scroll wheel, drag to pan (hold Space to pan while brushing). Cmd/Ctrl+Z undoes brush strokes, bakes, AI results and checkerboard removal — or use the ↩ Undo button by the zoom controls. Crop before halftoning to isolate your artwork.
