Wide-Format out in the Real World: Site-Visit Case-Study
Recently we visited a printing company which special-izes exclusively in high quality dye-sublimation print-ing on cotton. We will be preparing a separate FLAAR Report on his workflow and his equipment, but first we want to share his colorful results with you.

I have seen remarkable color from direct-to-fabric (ATPColor and DigiFab) but an alternative is printing onto transfer paper. The printing company we visited uses transfer paper. The results are frankly gorgeous.
In the separate report on the workflow we show what equipment he uses; but in the meantime, we wanted to share with you his results.
