@Toddyboy65 For me, I would convert keep two files, one for editing the text just in case, and another file for printing with the fonts converted to outlines (or curves — how's that for old school!)

 

Always use vector logos for those sharp lines and of course avoiding the pixelation!

 

Step and repeat will be your best friend especially, if you need to create that carbon fibre fades!

 

Talk to your printer on this one. Normally, say for printing on paper, we avoid rich blacks; for fabrics, it's a little different, for a rich black, you may need to juice the colors for example, on paper, it's usually C0 M0 Y0 K100; but for fabric, again, depending the printer, it might C40 M40 Y40 K100 — a little more for the cooler side (Cyan) or warmer side (M/Y)
