    the alignment bullets would apply over to the garment when you press it. not sure if Corel would do it, but I have honestly never seen it done this way and I’ve visited a ton of production facilities

    Hmmm, but lets say if we are going to do designs, logos instead of letterings? would the alignment bullets be easier and more helpful? can corel draw do it?

    Sorry to bother you.

    With heat applied film you actually don;t use the alignment bullets. The easiest way is to just line it up by eye – the product has a see through mylar so registration should be fairly easy

    Hi Josh,

    Can i check with you before sending the 2 layers to vinyl cutter, how do i place alignment bullets on each later so i can align them after cutting? Let’s say placing them below the words but accurately?

    Thanks.

    That’s exactly right – press the black, peel the backing and then press the yellow right over top
