inshepherdsarms Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 Affinity Designer is the first design program that i've ever purchased. Ok...Ive already designed several t shirt ideas. I just have a few questions. I have a few designs that are for black t shirts. The designs are white. My Art board was colorless. I exported the design but when I opened the file up the design had a white background instead of being colorless. So If I were to put it on a black t-shirt theres a white box around the design. I guess what Im asking is how do I export just the design using colorless backgrounds or color less art boards? I don't want the art board unless its part of the design. Do I have to trace around the whole design before exporting? thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R C-R Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 If you are exporting to a jpeg file, you get a white background because jpegs do not support transparency (what you call colorless). For printing purposes an export format that supports transparency like PDF would be better.

TinPianoMan Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 Check which file format your t-shirt fulfliment house takes. Usually, a png of around 2400px x 3000px will do the job. jrr52 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
