Create free DTF halftones online.
Try one design in the browser. If you have 20, 50, or 200 files, Pet Film nesting, Jobs, and export in different formats are available in desktop DTReady — 15-day trial on Mac or Windows. Nothing is uploaded.
How to use it
- Drag a PNG or JPG onto the canvas.
- Set the real print width and the DPI your flow uses.
- Adjust LPI, angle, and threshold until the dots open the way you want in the soft areas.
- Check the Canvas, White, and Split views, then export the PNG.
What is free and what is not
The tool is free and needs no account. One-off work is open; shop production stays on desktop:

Quick questions
- Are my designs uploaded?
- No. Halftones are computed in your browser; the image never leaves your machine.
- What LPI should I use for DTF?
- Most shops land between 25 and 30 LPI with the screen angled around 22.5 degrees. Here you can try it on your own file before deciding.
- Does it work for dark garments?
- The White view lets you see the white layer, but exporting it separately and choking the edge is part of the desktop app.
- Is this a RIP?
- No. Neither this tool nor DTReady is a RIP: they prepare the file your RIP prints.
Got more than one design?
Here you create halftones one design at a time. If you need several designs, Pet Film nesting, and TIFF/PSD/PDF export, use desktop DTReady. Mac and Windows, 15-day trial — not “free software”; the full program trial.
