The BEST tutorial for halftones I have watched! I now have complete control over my halftones and it only takes me about 2 minutes to make them. Very informative and straight to the point. Thank you!!!!
I have seen many videos about this, and all of them explain steps that I don't understand, I make them and they work,but I don't understand why I make it. Whith this method I understand what you make and why, thank you for simplying things and getting same results!!!
Thank you so much for providing this video. You made it so easy for anyone to understand. I often had trouble creating halftones. Thank you so much. Please continue to share videos like this for people like me who are just learning.
Adjusting the levels on CMYK individually to max out to white is not something Ive seen in other tutorials, but it seems like it would yield more precision of color hypothetically. That was a cool tip thanks - great tutorial.
A similar tutorial explaining how to do this for shirt colors other than black would be great. I imagine only a few steps to be different, but it would be appreciated if you might decide to do an any color tutorial.
You really can't do halftoning in other colors except White. You would have to REMOVE (halftone) the color of the shirt on your print. For example, if you had a red shirt, you would have to halftone the reds on your design in order to use the red of the shirt as the red ink on your designs. You could technically do it, but you would get unexpected results at the end. There is a simulated halftone process that you can do for colored shirts, but the image will not be as vibrant, it will actually make the image pretty pale.
Wow! I was over here trying to accomplish this by following other videos but this one is definitely the best video for this! I finally got it and it was really easy to do! Thank you SOOO MUCH!
yes I will make one...it is pretty much the same process, the ONLY difference is that you have to flatten your Duplicated image on top of the black background (not have it as a transparent layer) and then do all the steps in this video.
This is a good tutorial. If I may ask can you do a tutorial on how to choke the white underbase in photoshop for this design and after the halftone? Thanks
The white underbase choke can only be done in the printer's RIP software (Raster Image Processor). Each good DTF or DTG printer usually runs on a RIP and each good RIP should have a choke setting you can modify. It definitely can't be done in Photoshop properly.
You HAVE to make halftones in DTF to get the best print effect when it comes to gradients and soft edges like smoke, drop shadows, glows and also to keep the print feeling soft, otherwise the print will feel really thick. In DTG, you don't have to make halftones, you only make halftones in DTG if you want to give your design a comic book look to it.
Great video! But why do you have to convert the image to halftone if you want to print it with DTG Print? Or could it have been printed in its original state?
It could be printed in its original state in DTG, but halftoning it could give it a "comic book" look for those that want to learn how to create comic book style halftones as well.
I didn't want to create an action because 1) it is very simple to do this as this video shows and 2) each design will require different input Levels, so you would have to modify Levels for each design to get the best Halftoning result.

most detailed tutorial on halftone I ever watched! Can you make a video on halftoning an image if it has glow effects or fading effects for ?
yes I will make one...it is pretty much the same process, the ONLY difference is that you have to flatten your Duplicated image on top of the black background (not have it as a transparent layer) and then do all the steps in this video.
awesome looking forward to it, in the meantime I will keep practicing! Thank you ! @@ARPRINT

Thanks straight forward video
Decrease en acrorip cuanto usas?
Can I print directly from Photoshop or will I have to get CADLink or Acrorip?
It depends on your equipment, but it is always best to use a RIP software like cadlink or acrorip or others, to give you more control when printing.
thank you so much after looking for so many vids on how to do this i found the perfect one. very informative and detailed -midnightsokudo
Glad it helped!
Could you briefly compare DTF & DTG printing? Which is the best for blank & white color? Which halftone prints the best - DTF or DTG?
You HAVE to make halftones in DTF to get the best print effect when it comes to gradients and soft edges like smoke, drop shadows, glows and also to keep the print feeling soft, otherwise the print will feel really thick. In DTG, you don't have to make halftones, you only make halftones in DTG if you want to give your design a comic book look to it.
Awesome!
Thank you! Cheers!

How to put a white base?
@@wobbajas ??? what do you mean? That is usually done on your printer / rip settings
can you make a tutorial for white t shirts ? this only works for black shirts
Invert the colors? that should work
Do you have this saved as a action (.atn) file ?
I didn't want to create an action because 1) it is very simple to do this as this video shows and 2) each design will require different input Levels, so you would have to modify Levels for each design to get the best Halftoning result.
