It works great with two designs but I’m having some trouble getting three designs on it such as front back and side
Hi @BRJ5,
There is unfortunately currently a bug where it is possible to only place a design on the front and back. We’re working on a solution to fix this so it’ll be also possible to place them on either side!
I’m having issues placing a design on a zipper hoodie (men’s). It appears that you are able to, but it’s not allowing me to select anything I upload. I hope it’s possible to add an image to the hoodie, otherwise this item is a non-seller. Attached a screenshot of the message.
Also, how do you save customizations? It is very unmotivating to have to re-create it for every product…

Ah, now I see the duplicated issue!
Are you trying to upload a pixel design to the sleeve of the hoodie?
Or are you trying to place a pixel design on the front of the zip hoodie?
If so, both options are not available. Both print areas only allow vector images for flex/flock printing.
This is due to the practical fact that our printing machines cannot bypass a zipper with their printing heads.
It´s like trying write on a piece of wood with a typewriter 
Hi Thomas,
Apologies for taking so long to get back to you. So I tried to upload a svg version of the logo and I am getting an error saying that it needs to be “svg” format, but the file is definitely svg. Any ideas why it is getting this error? Attached a screenshot (I remembered this time)
Thanks!
Jason
Can you please send your svg file to designs@spreadshirt.com so our design team from customer service can have a look at your file? Thanks!
Hello,
I’m getting an error message when I try to create a product with multiple designs. Not sure why. I’ve included screenshots. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Edit: I attempted to redo the entire design, now it won’t allow me to resize my vector image to the size shown on the screenshot below. However, when I try this design layout on a T-Shirt design, It allows me to resize the image and there is NO error message.
Certain products can only be printed with flex print. In order to print in Flex we always need a vector file that fulfills certain requirements: https://help.spreadshirt.com/hc/en-us/articles/206775719-Optimizing-Vector-Graphics-for-Print
- Your design must not exceed 15 x 15 inches. We recommend 11 x 11 inches as the ideal size.
- Lines and other parts of the design must have a diameter of at least 0.06 inches .
- Maximum 3 colors: we can print up to three colors when plotter printing.
It seems like the design you are trying to place on your products is too small to be printed in flex and that this product only allows for flex printing. Therefore you’re receiving this error message!
The t-shirt also allows for digital prining where the issue doesn’t occur.
Thanks for your response. Am I correct in assuming that the “Unisex Fleece Zip Hoodie”
(ProductID-ArticleID 1047395894-110820355) allows for Digital Direct printing whereas the Men’s Zip Hoodie didn’t? or is this a glitch?
Both allow for digital printing on the back but both require flex printing on the front and on the sleeves!
I’m suffering from the same problem and my design is small enough to be print in flex. Is the max three colors all around? My hoodie has designs on the front back sleeves and hood.
Please contact our customer service. You’re currently creating a product not as part of the partner area but just as a normal customer. Therefore I’d suggets you contact service@spreadshirt.com with the design attached 
I’m currently having an issue where I cannot place a design on the front, back, and both sleeves. It is only allowing the front and the back. Otherwise, I get the message “These designs can’t be combined. Please change your selection.” My sleeve designs are 15 inches at the largest side, and all of my images have been uploaded in .png format. Please advise.
Ahoy @DesignsbyHu,
for the side print areas we only allow vectorfiles for multiple print area objects. PNG-files won’t work on the sides.
Thank you much.
So, I just tried this and when I upload the .ai file, it says “File rejected. It cannot be printed.”
Ahoy @DesignsbyHu
Did the vectorfile meet our requirements?
If you want you can send me your file via pm and I will check it.
