How Handle Small Embroidered Text?

While many logos contain small text sometimes this text must be adjusted to work for an embroidered logo. What are your options?

Eliminate it
Enlarge it
Enlarge it and split into two lines
Simplify the font
Change the thread color to black or another dark color

Remember - embroidered logo usually look best when they focus on your business name and they are simple and easy to read.

The business image you project can be greatly improved by having your logo embroidered on a well-made garment. It makes good business sense to purchase a quality garment.

Ladies vs. Juniors Sizing:

When shopping for an item like women's T's make sure you know if a style is sized in "ladies" or "juniors" sizing. Shirts with juniors sizing have shorter sleeves and hems and are more narrow in the chest. If you wear a size M in a ladies size you'll want to order a size L in a juniors size.

Connector Threads?

Connector threads are those thin threads that connect letters in an embroidered word. Unlike printed items where each letter is printed separately, letters in embroidered text are usually connected with the thread stopping at the end of the last letter.

If the text has been properly kerned (spaced) and the digitizer (person who creates the embroidery set-up) is correctly trained then the connector threads usually can't be seen. But, if the text hasn't been kerned or the letters aren't connected in the right place then embroidered text can look ragged and unprofessional.
