Understanding print accuracy: online design vs. final product

June 24, 2025 · Updated

Is the final version of my print the same as the one I created online?

Yes, the print is your design.


Is there any color difference between the online design and the final garment?

We do our best to make items look on Tapstich’s website how they will in real life, but slight color differences are normal, specifically:

  • Apparel may have slightly differently colored fabric from order to order because there is always some variation in the dying process;
  • Printed colors may come out slightly differently depending on the fabric/material they are printed onto.

About color differences

  • In designs: Printing the same colors on different fabrics/materials may result in minor differences, which is considered normal.
  • In fabrics: Fabrics dyed in different batches may have minor differences due to temperature or dyes, which is normal.
  • Base color element: The same design printed on products of different base colors may have minor differences due to the primary colors principle (see picture below).
