Which color profile should I use for my files?
While we accept files with various color spaces, our system does all operations in red, green, and blue (RGB). If you upload a cyan, magenta, yellow, and black (CMYK) file, be aware that our system will convert it to RGB, and the colors might shift significantly.
To achieve the most color-accurate print result, we recommend the following:
- Create your design in RGB color mode.
- Preview how that design might look when printed by converting it to CMYK color mode in your designing app. This will give you an approximate idea of the color shift once printed.
- Undo the color mode changes and export the design in RGB color profile.
When designing products on Printify, you can preview your designs in both RGB and CMYK color modes. Simply switch between the options in the mockup preview for easy comparison.
