Short for Direct to Film, it's a printing process where your design goes onto a special film, then gets pressed onto the garment with a heat press. You get vibrant full color and fine detail on cotton, polyester, blends and more.

Direct to Film is the entry point: full color, most fabrics, no minimums, and ideal for short runs. Luxe is the premium pick when your clients expect a soft, barely-there, retail-quality hand feel. UV DTF stickers decorate hard goods like tumblers, keychains and phone cases. Still deciding? Our printers will help you pick the right method for the job.

For DTF, set your heat press to 300°F with medium to heavy pressure, press for 7–10 seconds and peel while hot. Post-press with parchment paper or a Teflon sheet for a matte or glossy finish. Watch the full how-to video.

Luxe presses at 300°F for 10 seconds with a cold peel. 

UV DTF stickers need no heat press at all: just peel and stick. 

Direct to Film orders placed by 12 PM ET ship the same day, Monday through Friday. Missed the cutoff? Add the $4.99 Same-day Upgrade before 3 PM ET. Luxe and UV DTF stickers ship in 2 business days.

Not for Direct to Film or UV DTF stickers. Order 1 single image or 1 gang sheet sheet, which makes them ideal for personalized and low-volume projects. Luxe starts at 10 pieces.

A gang sheet fits multiple designs on one sheet, which you cut apart once it arrives. It's the most cost-effective way to print a variety of designs in smaller quantities. Direct to Film gang sheets are 22" wide and run from 12" to 120" long.

You need a heat press, heat transfers from 613 Originals, and the garments you wish to decorate.
