If a transfer maker offers 9x12 transfers can the image be 9x12 or does it need to be slightly smaller than the transfer paper?
Also, is there usually a certain minimum amount of spacing required between ganged images?
Thanks!

This something some transfer makers do a poor job of communicating.....Heat Transfers | F&M Expressions | Custom Heat Transfers lists image area......

If they printer will print to the end you can do it.

Either by screen printing to the end or by using a printer.

I see an image size for the $.15 deal but not for the other transfers. Am I missing it?

 

[royster13]

The sizes shown on their price list are the image areas.....

Thanks. It would be awesome if they told you this...

Unless they have changed, when I was buying from F&M the 9x12.75 was the paper size and they would shrink the image to fit with a small margin if it was too large. In general, transfer makers will want a 1/2-1" margin.

The last order I got from them was on a 9 1/2" x 13 1/4" sheet....Their 15 cent special....

They must have changed practices then. I haven't used them in probably 4 years or so.

FM told me the sizes listed are the max image sizes.

You can check minimums on their website but they do have a hand and (used to) have a somewhat shiny appearance that will go away after a wash. Overall I found them to be extremely reliable.
