Question
What file format should I use for my mug design?
Answer
For the sharpest mug printing, upload a high-resolution file built at full wrap size. Vector files are best for logos and text because they stay crisp at any scale, while raster images should be high resolution so they do not blur when wrapped around the mug.
- Formats: high-resolution PDF, PNG, or AI.
- Resolution: 300 DPI at the final print size.
- Best for logos and text: vector artwork with fonts outlined.
- Backgrounds: use PNG when you need transparency around a graphic.
