Miken SPorts
You should go to the Miken website and purchase a cap with the logo directly from the copyright owner. It isn't legal for anyone else to digitize or use their logo without their permission.

It's www.mikensports.com.

I have the authorization from Miken as they are the sponsors for our team. Miken does not have caps small enough for our boys so we have to go out and get them from an outside source. I have all documentation to back this up if needed. I am having to pay 250$ for the caps to be done and do not think the 100$ charge for the digitizing is fair when I am already being charged so much.

The logo has double borders over sharp points which will be difficult to keep aligned on a cap that is already assembled. My advice would be to pay to have the digitizing done - the result will be many times better than an auto-converted version.

If you are willing to leave out some of the borders they might lower the digitizing fee but I doubt Miken would go along with changing their logo and you would definitely need to clear such a change with Miken.

Ok thanks. Do you agree that the cost is to much. We are talking about doing this for kids.

No, I can't disagree with the digitizing fee without knowing more about the company who quoted that price. If their digitizing service or person is REALLY good, it would be money well spent. Be sure to ask for a sample stitchout for approval before they start on the caps for real.

You would normally pay half up front so use that as a bargaining chip if the sample(s) aren't to your liking but be polite, of course. :>)

Converting from JPG to DST
My embroiderer needs DST format, and she doesnt know how to convert it herself.
She expects me to provide the DST file to her.

I have a color logo in both JPG and GIF formats. Not sure which one works better for this process.
Its 1165 X 600. Thats pretty big. When I use my JPG editor to resize it to fit on the left chest of a shirt the edges are no longer crisp. I dont think this is good since I am afraid that the embroidered logo will look bad.

1. Should I convert the logo full size?
2. Can it be reduced after it has been converted to DST?
3. How do I resize it within DST format?
4. How do I convert it to DST format?
5. Is there someone within this group that can do that for me, or point me in the right direction?

Thanks in advance.

Brent

Just give Duane or I the best image you can ..
And tell us what size you want it.
Your text "service dept" is too small and thin for me to digitize

Is there a better format to use?
Should the logo be even bigger than what I have already provided?
This is the biggest size that I have.
I will have to ask someone about a better copy.
Im not sure who created the logo.
