How it works

From file to film in three moves

Built for DTF shops that need clean transfers — not another photo editor.

  1. Knock out the background

    Remove black (or any color) so the shirt fabric becomes part of the design. No flat black square on the transfer.

  2. Halftone only the fades

    Smoke, glow, and soft gradients get AM dots. Solids stay solid — no muddy screens across the whole art.

  3. Preview on the garment, then export

    Check placement on black or white shirts, then download a transparent PNG ready for your DTF printer.

Solutions built for the press floor

DTF Prep is live. Laser Prep, Vector, and Proof are next — same Almy workflow from file to finish.

Everything between upload and print

Automatic when you want speed. Manual when you need control.

  • Color Knockout

    Pick a color, set tolerance, watch the background disappear.

  • Smart Halftone

    AM screening where fades need it — not across the whole design.

  • Almy Max Enhance

    Recover print detail before prep. Original stays untouched.

  • Garment Mockup

    Front and back on real shirt photos — any color.
