BUYER GUIDE / ARTWORK

Prepare your logo for embroidery.

A practical checklist for sharing artwork with an embroidery provider.

Send clear originals

Provide a high-resolution logo and vector files if available. A vector file is not itself an embroidery stitch file; the design usually must be digitized for the machine.

Clarify physical placement

Identify garment, size in inches, position, thread colors and whether fine lettering should be simplified. Ask for a digital proof and, when practical, a sewn sample before production.

Confirm usage rights

Only submit marks and artwork you have permission to reproduce.

Discuss file requirements directly

Accepted formats and digitizing requirements vary by provider.
