Can a Left Chest Design Be Embroidered On Caps?

Possibly. There are many factors involved including the size of your original design and the type of detail it contains. The primary consideration for cap designs is they are limited to 2" high. If your left chest design is horizontally orientated then its very likely it will work for caps without changing the artwork although it may need to be set-up so it runs (embroiders) from center out which differs from most left chest designs.

What if your left chest design is higher than 2"? You can either eliminate some of the detail, rearrange the design elements so they have a horizontal orientation or consider using just your business name. For a attention-getting look consider using your business name and one element of your design and have your logo centered on one of the front panels rather than locating in the center front.

Photos are good for showing logo placement but unless your logo is very simple a photographic image isn't clear enough to work as artwork for your embroidery set-up.

Can You Use a Docx File For Artwork?

Docx files are word processing files rather than artwork files so they aren't as good at handling images, fonts and colors. Because of this unexpected things can happen like substituted fonts when docx files are opened on a different computer system. To avoid these problems its best to not use docx files.
