Textile and Surface Design

You'll want to be generally familiar with the operation of Wasatch SoftRIP before reading this document.

The 'Special Colors', 'Color Database', and 'Spot Color Capture' features of Wasatch SoftRIP are particularly useful for the printing of textiles and surface designs. In addition to the standard tools, optional Textiles feature, available at extra cost, make Wasatch SoftRIP into a powerful and specialized solution for digital textile and fabric printing.

Activation of Textile Options

A 'Special Registration Code' is necessary to enable the special textile-oriented capabilities of Wasatch SoftRIP. This code may be purchased from Wasatch or through your Wasatch reseller. The code will be sent along with instructions for its installation.

Once this is done, exit and re-run Wasatch SoftRIP. Two new controls will be available.

The Repeats tab will now appear any time an image is open. The Textile Separations selection on the main File menu is used for reconstruction of color images from the Tiff-based separations that are common in textile printing workflows.
