Simulated Process (Rasterize)
Simulated process is about doing more with less. The goal is to keep the ink count as low as possible while still hitting the colors, tones, and gradients in the original artwork with real accuracy. Each channel is built manually using halftone dot patterns — layered from light to dark so tones blend correctly at the press. The underbase is built white and sized precisely, giving lighter colors something solid to sit on without blowing out the overall image. The result looks photorealistic but stays within a manageable ink count, which keeps your press setup clean and your print cost in check.

Precision-Driven Color Separations
We reduce your ink count without cutting corners. Every simulated separation is built to look accurate on press, regardless of garment color or complexity.
True to the Original
Every channel is checked against the source artwork. Colors, tones, and gradients are matched as closely as the separations allow.
Any Garment Color
Not just dark fabrics — simulated separations are built to work on any garment color, light or dark, with the underbase adjusted accordingly.
