HOW TO MINIMIZE PRINTING ERRORS FOR FAUX EMBROIDERY ARTWORKS

• Turn off the 'drop shadow' in the fringe tab to ensure that the artwork is printed sharply. It is recommended to turn on the 'drop shadow' only for mockups, as it enhances the realism of the product image
• Limit the use of bright pastel colors for the design to avoid it looking washed out.
• Do not use a black color across a large area, as it may cause blending with embroidered lines.
• It's recommended to apply the embroidery action initially and then determine the final design dimensions to minimize the potential impact on the size of the embroidered lines.
• While you have the option to use the embroidery action for multiple artworks, it's advisable to apply the embroidery action one artwork at a time when using the Faux Embroidery Maker to prevent potential errors.
• If the embroidery action encounters any issues, try turning off the artboard or restarting Photoshop before playing the action again.
• For artworks with a size smaller than 5 inches, it's suggested to reduce the size by half before applying the action. Once the embroidery effect is applied, you can resize the artwork according to your preference to ensure that the embroidery texture and effect are clearly visible on the artwork.
