A white halo on a DTF gang sheet means a risky transfer, wasted film and a possible reprint. Vxel Engine keeps edge control, choke and export in one DTF workflow.

DTF problem

A faint source edge becomes a visible fringe once the white underbase is printed and pressed.

Manual editing

Manual selections and masks take time and can leave semi-transparent pixels around the artwork.

Vxel Engine workflow

Use controlled transparency, a choke adjustable from 0 to 1.5 px (up to 0.13 mm at 300 DPI), 3 mm spacing and a 300 DPI transparent PNG at final size.

Ready for production?

Prepare the edge before the RIP so every DTF transfer starts from a controlled file.
