  • I don't know, but quite a lot. The printer I am speaking to says their screen printing capacity has 7 and it wouldn't handle it...

  • To be honest, that was a leading question.

    A lot of designing for print is understanding how it will actually end up on paper or fabric, and working within the constraints of the printing methods that will be used - the number of colours practically available, the order they will be printed in, whether one colour will be overprinted or knock out the underlying colour, resolution, half-toning.

    'Neon fades' and what you've said about choosing between digital vs. screen printing with the design already done, and 7 colours not being enough, makes me think you are going to be disappointed with what you end up with, unless you take a step back and discuss with someone who's done something similar.

  • I'm sure this is good advice. I've got a design I like, want it on hoodies for gifts, beyond that I'm clueless. I'll see if I can find someone helpful, if anyone here has such knowledge and fancies helping out, please do shout...
