Gang Sheet Template
A pre-sized digital canvas or layout file used to arrange multiple DTF designs for printing on a single sheet of PET film. Gang sheet templates are typically set to standard roll widths — 22 inches wide — with variable lengths such as 24, 48, 72, or 96 inches. Templates can be created in Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, or dedicated gang sheet builder software. Using a template ensures designs are correctly positioned within the printable area and helps maximize film utilization.
