Default Help w/ white trim around dark letters.

Hi Folks,
Love to get some ideas on the best way to proceed with printing a white trim (ie touching the dark letters) against dark letters. My believe is having my white layer slightly inside the dark and the dark printing right on the shirt instead of on top of a white base coat. The shirt itself is purple with black letters and a white trim. I'm guessing that if the positives line up well and my registration is right I should be fine. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks ahead. Joe

Hey Joe, If I was printing it. I would go with butt registered art(no traps), I would print my black first, & then print flash print my white.
