How to save as PNG with background removed

[ANDREW5EFC]

Hi, I have a very simple image and also an image with text. I'm trying to save these as PNG with the background removed so that they can be applied to a t-shirt to be printed.

I can remove the background and save as ai, or export as PNG, but can't do both!

Help!

Have you selected Transparent for the background colour in the PNG export options? Can you share one of these PNGs?

Hi. This is the interface for "Export for screen" command. Select PNG8, click the gear icon and verify the transparent option (checked).
