Cap Structure Matters
Structured and unstructured caps can behave differently during embroidery, so the file should be prepared for the actual headwear whenever possible.
- Cap type and placement considered
- Curved sewing area planned for
- Logo size checked against practical limits
Center Seam and Sequencing
The center seam can affect registration and stitch behavior, especially when lettering or narrow details cross it.
- Sequence selected around design construction
- Stitch direction chosen for stability and appearance
- Travel reduced where practical
Flat or 3D Puff
Cap artwork can be prepared as flat embroidery, 3D puff, or a combination when the artwork has suitable shapes and widths.
- Flat details can support finer artwork
- Puff works best on stronger elements
- Combination files planned by object
