I'm trying to get a white outline around the design.I'm using DTG RIP pro V.04. I was told in the Choke menu that negative numbers move the white out and the positive move it inside or under the design. When I do place a-4 all the way around it tells me all I can use is from -1 to 100. Was I told wrong?
I'm using PS cs4 for designing and have put a stroke of black around the design.. then I need a stroke of white to set it off from the dark shirt. It also has a drop shadow. Any suggestions?

it's an image design some lettering and medical cross.I saved as psd format. I'm a bit new to Photoshop, learning as I go. I do vinyl graphics so I use a program called Flexi-sign, but it is much like illustrator. I do have illustrator as well.
There are negative and positive numbers when you use the feed BUT nit the choke!
Maybe you just are confused as to what they said?

no I remember him telling us about the choke setting. my son was with me and he remebers it too.. we both wrote it down the same.. it doesn't matter I'm now having another issue. I figured out how to fool PS for the white now it some runtime library problem. I have a call to SWF for help. Hopefully I hear soon...
thanks anyway..
-1 is a negative number. If there were larger negative numbers the function would be called a spread, not a choke. The feature is not designed to make up for design inadequecies, it is designed to make up minor variances in printer registration.
For an outline on your design, you will need to add an outline in your graphics program. The choke is only used to make sure your printer registration is correct.
