Now using your eraser tool, delete all the blue colour from the other copies, in our case we will be removing blue from the yellow and white copies. Then select the colour blue on all of the unlocked copied (Select – Same – Fill Colour and Stroke). First you will need to lock (Command 2) your master copy as we do not want to edit this copy. STEP 5: Start working on your first colour. We will start with blue. At this point, make sure to lock (Command 2) all of your registration marks so you dont accidently move or edit them. Label each copy with your desired colour (ie, Master copy, Blue, Yellow, White, Underbase). You will need enough copies for each colour plus one more as a master copy. STEP 4: Create multiple copies of artwork. Including your reg marks, use copy + paste (Command C + Command V) to create multiple copies. Once these reg marks are in place, they shouldn’t be moved from now on. Place your vector registration marks slightly away from your image but remember to make sure they still fit comfortably on your platen for lining up on press later. I just need to repeat that… YOUR REGISTRATION MARKS NEED TO BE VECTORS.
If you are using your own method your registration marks need to be vectors. STEP 3: Add registration marks. If you are using our template, you can use the reg marks included. You can download our registration template here We also use a pre-made platen/registration template to make sure our image fits perfectly on our screens and platens. STEP 2: Scale the image to size. In our studio, generally a small left chest print will be around 8.5cm and a large front print will be 27cm. STEP 1: Place and embed artwork into illustrator. It is important for your image to be fully embedded onto the artboard so you can adapt the vector image efficiently.
