Santa ... Shannon 160 Posted June 25, 2011 Report Share Posted June 25, 2011 The problem is, I think you are saying you want to do an iron-on with no background. Is that right? Iron-ons come in two sorts that I know of, white media or clear. The white media can be ironed onto any color shirt, the clear needs a REALLY light shirt color to keep from muddling the colors in your graphic. If you go with the white the best you can do is cut the shape carefully before ironing it on. Professionally produced shirts will actually print a white knockout on the shirt before printing the graphic so the colors will be crisp regardless of the shirt color.

4mickey2 41 Posted June 26, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2011 yeah that is what i wanted to do. so i should probably leave the white in the background? i will see what i can do with it. thanks you guys.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Santa ... Shannon 160 Posted June 26, 2011 Report Share Posted June 26, 2011 Yeah, that's right. If you are printing on white media and ironing on to a non-white shirt, you will need to trim the iron-on with scissors or an X-acto. If you are using either white or clear media on a white (or VERY light shirt) you will still want to trim closely to your graphic, but errors in the trimming will be less obvious than with a darker shirt.
