What embroidery specifications do I need to follow?

When uploading an image for embroidery in our Design Creator, here are some key recommendations:


1. Avoid complex details or small text

Fine details can be lost due to texture size limits, and extremely thin elements and small text often don't turn out well in embroidery.


2. Avoid small gaps

Ensure the density of the embroidery stitches; if the density is too low, the threads may become loose, resulting in small gaps, exposing the fabric and affecting the overall aesthetic.


3. Don't use photographs

Photographs don't translate well into embroidery during digitization and typically produce unclear results.


4. Don't use gradients or blend effects

Gradients don't work well in embroidery because smooth color transitions are not achievable.
