Serigraphx utilizes a 4-color press to deliver high-quality and affordable-priced products to our customers. We specialize in spot color process¹ enabling us to provide free or affordable artwork to meet your needs.

If you rather we use 4-color process² to reproduce your artwork, a $50 fee³ will be charged for each color separation (CMYK) film to create the several hundred different colors dictated by the artwork. Also note that this process has best results when printed on a white shirt.

The "text" artwork you specify during your online purchase is free. If you want to include a logo or design in addition to text, you must contact us prior to ordering. Oftentimes Serigraphx will not charge you for artwork, but may be necessary due to the complexity of the design. Serigraphx will provide you with a quote upfront so that you may make an informed decision on your purchase.

What you need to know before submitting artwork to Serigraphx

Our program format of choice is Adobe® Illustrator, with the design spot-color separated with no trapping or overprinting. Other acceptable exported files include psd, tif, jpg (jpeg), or gif, as long as these exported files are provided at the full size or the reproduction at a minimum resolution of 300 dpi. Furthermore, any and all fonts must be included with the exported file and all fonts must be converted to vector paths prior to export. Please note that conversion of such files into vector art by Serigraphx may incur artwork fees and that MICROSOFT WORD, POWERPOINT OR PAINT PROGRAM FILES ARE NOT ACCEPTABLE DIGITAL FILES AND CANNOT BE USED!
