How to Make a Gang Sheet (Using Our Builder + Auto Builder)
If you want to save money on DTF transfers, gang sheets are the move. The key is building your sheet the right way so you do not waste space and your sizing comes out correct.
At Primal Graphx - Charlotte's #1 Premium DTF Provider, we help customers in Charlotte and ship nationwide. Below is a simple walkthrough for using:
-
our DTF Gang Sheet Builder (manual control)
-
our Gang Sheet Auto Builder (fast layout)
Before you start (quick checklist)
Have this ready:
-
high resolution artwork (avoid screenshots)
-
PNG with transparent background when possible
-
the sizes you need (left chest, full front, sleeve, back)
-
how many of each design you want
If you are unsure about sizing or file quality, ask us first. It saves time and money.
Option 1: Use the DTF Gang Sheet Builder (manual control)

Step 1: Choose your sheet size
Pick the sheet size you want to build.
Tip: if you have multiple designs, choose a sheet size that gives you room to add extras (pocket logos, sleeves, or size variations).
Step 2: Upload your artwork
Upload each design you want on the sheet.
Best practice:
-
upload clean, high resolution files
-
keep the background transparent when possible
-
double check that text and small details look sharp
Step 3: Set your sizes
Resize each design to the inches you want.
Do not guess sizing. This is where most people lose money.
Step 4: Arrange your layout
Layout tips that save space:
-
group similar sizes together
-
keep a small gap between designs for cutting
-
fill empty areas with small logos or extra sizes you know you will use
-
keep designs readable (do not rotate unless it helps fit clean)
Step 5: Review and submit
Before you submit:
-
double check spelling
-
double check sizing
-
make sure nothing is overlapping
Option 2: Use the Gang Sheet Auto Builder (fast layout)
Use this when you want a quick, clean layout without manually arranging every piece.
