How to Order a Custom DTF Gang Sheet

A DTF gang sheet allows you to arrange multiple designs on one sheet, helping you maximize available printing space and prepare several ready-to-press DTF transfers in a single order.

Southern Girl Customs offers 22-inch-wide DTF gang sheets with lengths starting at 12 inches and extending up to 300 inches. This guide will help you choose the correct ordering option, prepare your artwork, and submit your gang sheet successfully.

Choose the Right DTF Product

Southern Girl Customs offers three DTF ordering options.

The builder allows you to:

2. Upload Your DTF Gang Sheet

Your artwork must:

• Match the exact size selected

• Use a 22-inch-wide canvas

• Have a transparent background

• Contain properly sized designs

• Keep every design inside the canvas

• Be ready to print without additional editing

This product uses fixed gang-sheet size options ranging from 22″ × 12″ to 22″ × 300″.

3. DTF Transfers by Size

Choose DTF Transfers by Size when you need individual transfers and do not want to build or upload a complete gang sheet.

Enter or select the required width and height, upload your design, and choose the quantity needed.

Best for: Customers ordering individual logos, shirt designs, pocket prints, or transfers in specific dimensions.

DTF Gang Sheet Sizes and Pricing

All DTF products are priced at $0.02 per square inch.

The pricing formula is:

Width × Height × $0.02

Because gang sheets have a fixed width of 22 inches, the calculation is:

22 × Sheet Length × $0.02

Example gang-sheet prices include:

Gang Sheet Size	Price
22″ × 12″	$5.28
22″ × 24″	$10.56
22″ × 60″	$26.40
22″ × 120″	$52.80
22″ × 180″	$79.20
22″ × 240″	$105.60
22″ × 300″	$132.00

The Rolling DTF Gang Sheet Builder calculates the required sheet length automatically. The Upload Your DTF Gang Sheet product requires you to select a fixed size before uploading your completed layout.

Step 1: Prepare Your Artwork

For the best DTF printing quality, submit artwork that meets these requirements:

• PNG file preferred

• Transparent background

• 300 DPI recommended

• Created at the intended print size

• Clear, sharp, and free from pixelation

• Normal readable orientation

• Not mirrored

• Clean edges with no unwanted pixels

• Correct spelling, colors, and layout

Saving an image as a PNG does not automatically remove its background. Confirm that the background is fully transparent before uploading.

Step 2: Determine Your Transfer Sizes

Decide how large each design should be when printed. The correct size depends on the garment, placement, and intended appearance.

Common placement categories include:

• Pocket or left-chest designs

• Youth front designs

• Standard adult front designs

• Full-front or full-back designs

• Sleeve designs

• Tote-bag and accessory designs

Measure the available printing area before selecting a size. Do not rely only on how large the design appears on your computer screen.

Step 3: Calculate the Quantity Needed

Determine how many copies of each design you need. Multiplying the transfer width and height by the required quantity can help estimate the space needed, but remember to include spacing between designs.

For example, if you need ten designs measuring 10″ × 10″, you must account for:

• The total design area

• The 22-inch sheet width

• Spacing between each design

• Unused space caused by the design shape

• Room needed for cutting

The Rolling DTF Gang Sheet Builder is the easiest option when you are unsure which sheet length will fit your designs.

Step 4: Arrange Your Gang Sheet

When building or uploading a gang sheet:

• Keep every design completely inside the canvas

• Do not overlap artwork

• Leave approximately 0.25 inch between designs

• Maintain the correct proportions

• Remove unnecessary empty space

• Use smaller designs to fill open areas

• Keep all artwork within the purchased dimensions

• Check the entire sheet before adding it to your cart

Efficient placement helps you receive more transfers from the available sheet space.

Step 5: Review Your Gang Sheet

Before submitting your order, carefully inspect the complete sheet.

Confirm that:

• The canvas matches the selected size

• All designs are correctly sized

• Quantities are correct

• Artwork is not mirrored

• No designs overlap

• Nothing extends beyond the canvas

• Backgrounds are transparent

• Text and spelling are correct

• No artwork is blurry or pixelated

• There is enough space for cutting

Your gang sheet will be printed using the layout and artwork submitted.

Step 6: Place Your Order

Once your layout has been reviewed:

1. Select the correct DTF product.

2. Build your gang sheet or choose a fixed size.

3. Upload your artwork.

4. Confirm the dimensions and quantity.

5. Review the order details.

6. Add the product to your cart.

7. Complete checkout.

If the uploaded artwork does not match the selected product or size, production may be delayed while clarification is requested.

Common Gang Sheet Mistakes to Avoid

Avoid these common file-preparation problems:

• Uploading low-resolution screenshots

• Leaving a white or colored background

• Selecting a size that does not match the artwork

• Stretching designs and changing their proportions

• Placing artwork outside the canvas

• Overlapping designs

• Forgetting space between transfers

• Submitting mirrored artwork

• Using tiny text or extremely thin lines

• Failing to review spelling and quantities
