Hello, I can't begin to explain the level of enlightenment I feel after watching this tutorial. Lady you are truly a gifted individual. Thank you so much. I print apparel @ home. I love working with HTV and I use the 'slicing' technique on all my designs, no matter their complexity. I love the challenge of lining up almost perfect. Your explanation about 'spread, select by a condition and unite' technique was beyond words helpful for beginners like myself. I would recommend your channel without doubt to anyone in the printing feild. Thank you again.
Thank you! I think it's much easier with DTF printing, since it basically works like an inkjet printer (almost). I would take the step of fitting your artboard to the art size (Object > Artboard > Fit to Selected Art). Also, colors can wash out a bit with DTF, so it may make sense to make them 10-15% darker and more saturated.
Keyboard shortcuts vs Actions Any difference or benefit to doing it one way or another? Can you do keyboard shortcuts in Photoshop or InDesign (which don't have Actions, I believe)?
Keyboard shortcuts - they usually make a tool active or do a small task like copy and paste. Actions - use when there are multiple steps you need to record, like copy, paste, group AND hide the selected item - you can apply a keyboard shortcut to these! Photoshop - can do both InDesign - can do keyboard shortcuts, but not actions. You can use scripts though, which require programming language.
