Additional Program Details

Artwork Details

Embroidery and embroidered patch art files need to be in vector format (non-vector art will require additional lead-time to receive virtuals), Adobe Illustrator (.ai), encapsulated PostScript (.eps) or scalable vector graphic (.svg). Please provide size and PMS color specifications with the artwork submission. Digitizing services and set-up fees are free. Creating vector artwork will increase lead time and design time. Accurate re-creation cannot be guaranteed. Outdoor Cap reserves the right to alter a customer's file to deliver a quality product. Outdoor Cap will match PMS with the closest matching thread and may need to alter the artwork to best fit the decoration space or decoration technique.

Embroidery and Fabric Patches: Vector art in .ai, .eps or .svg format.
JPEG, DST, or other art types will increase the lead time for sample sew-out or virtual.
Redrawing artwork of any type will increase lead time and design time. Accurate re-creation cannot be guaranteed.
Sublimated Patches: Raster file at least 300 dpi in .jpg, .gif, .png, .tif, .psd or .bmp format.
Leather Patches: Single color vector art in .ai, .eps or .svg format.
