Fix Print-on-Demand Low Resolution

Resize your design to 300 DPI at the product's print area so it passes resolution checks on print-on-demand platforms.

Why print-on-demand sites warn about resolution

Print-on-demand platforms compare your file's pixels to the product's print area. If there are too few pixels per inch, they show a low-resolution warning because the print may look blurry. Most recommend 300 DPI at the final print size.

How to fix a low resolution warning

  • Find the print area size (in inches) for your product in the platform's template
  • Upload your design above and enter that size
  • Download the 300 DPI file and upload it to your product

Get the best result

  • Start from the largest version of your design
  • Keep the product's aspect ratio to avoid cropping
  • Use a transparent PNG for apparel designs
