If you're looking to start or scale your apparel business without the hassle of designing from scratch or worrying about file formatting, Ready to Press DTF transfers could be the perfect solution. These high-quality, pre-designed heat transfers are one of the fastest and most affordable ways to create professional apparel — no design software or print prep required.
In this post, we'll explain exactly what Ready to Press DTF transfers are, how they work, and why Blu Ridge Design Co. is your go-to source for premium, print-ready designs that are press-and-go easy.
What Are Ready to Press DTF Transfers?
Ready to Press DTF (Direct to Film) transfers are professionally printed heat transfers that come fully prepared — all you need is a heat press and a blank garment. Unlike custom DTF transfers, where you upload your own artwork, ready to press designs are pre-made and available instantly for purchase.
In short:
-
You don’t need to design anything
-
You don’t need to crop, format, or prep files
-
You don’t pay any setup or artwork fees
-
You simply choose your design, order the transfer, and press it onto your apparel
How Are They Different from Custom DTF Transfers?
The only real difference is who provides the design. With custom DTF transfers, you upload your own file (often requiring specific formatting). With ready to press transfers, Blu Ridge Design Co. provides the design — fully formatted, tested, and ready for heat application.
✅ Same film
✅ Same inks
✅ Same commercial printers and RIP software
✅ Same ultra-soft feel, vibrant colors, and 40+ wash durability
Ready to Press transfers are just as professional as custom ones, but require zero prep on your end.
