Embroidery FAQs
LOGO DESIGN
Digitizing, which means converting photo to embroidery(stitching) format which calls DST format. It can be used for only certain embroidery machines.
Our Tajima commercial machine only accepts DST format files to embroider.
Detailed logos/designs need to be digitized by digitizing company and we order your logo/design, it usually takes 3-5 hours to receive your logo in DST format and ready to embroider.
Digitizing fee is one time payment and we keep your file in our files. Each logo will be $10-25 to digitize depending on the complexity of the logo. There will be an additional $15 to get ownership of the digitized logo.
You can also purchase DST file for yourself, and use the file anywhere in the world to get your embroidery.
Digitizing fee is a none refundable payment. Payment goes directly to digitizing company.
Mock Ups
We can provide sample digitizing for logo/design/text on felt if there’s something wrong or don’t look right and without any fee.
We’re always trying to complete orders on time and ship them quickly and they take 12-24 hours range and it makes orders slow and also waiting for response from customers also adds more time on top of mockup.
If you really want to see mockups then we will provide link that will take you to additional fee for mockup and that way we will provide mockup photo of your logo/text/design.
Once your logo is digitized, we’ll send over a virtual proof with dimensions and stitch count for review and approval. Upon approval, we’ll proceed with a physical sew out of your logo for your review and approval. We will not proceed to production until we have an approval on the sew out proof.

Embroidered shirts details
Usually embroidery goes on Left chest are in 3" - 4" range and this is the most professional way to embroider on shirts. Logos should be on left chest and Name and Title goes on right chest. We can also embroider on sleeves and back of shirts. Back embroider max size: 10"
Text embroidery are typical embroidery orders. Please avoid upper case letters if you want to get cursive font. Upper case letters look great with Block fonts. The best option will be 1st letter upper case and the rest lower case in this case most of the font look great. Some fonts have to be upper case only such as: Fullblock, Stencil. Staccato looks great with upper case letters.
Business names should be Block letters because block letters are thick and easy to read and that way it will be easy to promote your company name.
Cursive fonts are fancy and highly recommended for gifts. Must be 1st letter upper case and the rest are lower case.
We got multiple fonts for kids.
Embroidered hats details
​
Logos sometimes get complicated on hat due to limited available space on hat. Please note that majority of hats can be embroidered Max: 2.25 inches height if the hat is considering as high profile. On the other hand low profile hats usually goes up to 2.20 inches height. Almost all the hats have same width: 5.75 inches availability. In this case our company sometimes avoid logos that doesn’t fit in this dimension. Our experience has let us know that some logos won’t come out good enough to be visible on hat. This is extremely normal for embroidery service. As a needle work this doesn’t happen often.
