Caldera Introduces New Direct-to-Film Software

September 19, 2024

Caldera has announced the launch of its new Direct-to-Film (DTF) solution, designed to provide an intuitive route for effective digital textile printing. The software features an easy-to-use interface to speed up DTF image preparation at the production stage, resulting in high-quality printing without the need for specialized knowledge or expertise.

“This highly intuitive solution will bring direct-to-film digital printing to an entirely new group of users, opening one of the fastest-growing print areas to small businesses and creators who want to design and customize a wide range of DTF applications,” said Sebastien Hanssens, Caldera’s VP of Marketing & Operations.

Caldera users will save significant time thanks to the streamlined management of alignments, color bars, white undercoats and color knockouts. Flexible and versatile, Caldera Direct-to-Film runs natively on Windows, MacOS or Linux, making it easy to prepare and boost colors for vibrant results.

“DTF printing is ideal for customizing t-shirts, hoodies, shorts, pants, hats, bags, banners – truly any textile application,” continued Hanssens. “This new solution makes it easy even for DTF novices. By adding DTF to their print capability, users will be able to expand into new marketplaces and seize new opportunities.”
