Studio

The ProTransfers Studio is where you upload artwork, preview how it will print, and inspect quality simulations before ordering.

The Studio is your workspace for uploading artwork and previewing how it will print as a DTF transfer. It shows your design on a canvas with measurement rulers, quality simulations, and inspection tools — everything you need to order with confidence.

Canvas

The canvas displays your artwork at its actual proportions. Measurement rulers along the bottom and left edges show the physical print dimensions in inches or centimeters.

You can zoom in (scroll wheel or + key) up to 15x magnification to inspect fine details, and pan around the canvas when zoomed in. Press 0 to fit the artwork back to the full view.

Toolbar

A vertical toolbar on the left side of the canvas provides inspection tools:

• Contour overlay — toggles a highlighted outline showing the billing boundary of your artwork. This is the shape ProTransfers measures for pricing. Useful for designs with transparency to see exactly what you are paying for.
• Color risk overlay — toggles a heatmap showing which areas of your artwork may experience color shifts during printing. Green areas are safe, amber areas may shift slightly, and orange areas have higher risk.
• Background color — changes the canvas background to light, dark, or a custom color. Helpful for previewing how transparent areas will look on different fabric colors.

Simulation Footer

The simulation footer at the bottom of the canvas shows the results of your artwork analysis. It has two states:

• Collapsed — a compact bar showing your color reproduction score and key file details at a glance.
• Expanded — a full panel with tabs for detailed simulation results, including color-by-color breakdowns, file properties, and print dimensions.

The Summary tab shows metrics including color reproduction score, print size, color space, transparency, file format, and resolution. The Color Reproduction tab provides detailed color analysis with at-risk color swatches and overlay controls.

See Color Reproduction for a full guide to understanding your color simulation results.

Workflow

1. Upload — drag a file onto the Studio or click to browse
2. Preview — your artwork appears on the canvas with measurement rulers
3. Analyze — ProTransfers checks your file and shows simulation results in the footer
4. Inspect — use toolbar overlays and zoom to examine details
5. Order — select size and quantity, then add to cart

You work with one artwork at a time. To start over, click the delete button below the toolbar to clear the canvas and upload a new file.
