Image Enhancement Service
If your artwork is blurry, pixelated, or low resolution, we offer a professional image enhancement service to improve print quality whenever possible. Using advanced software and careful adjustments, we work to make your design print-ready while preserving its original look. If we’re unable to achieve acceptable results for your project, you’ll be fully refunded for this service—no risk to you.
Cost: $30 per image
Guarantee: If we’re unable to achieve acceptable print quality, you’ll be fully refunded for this service.
What we can do:
- Sharpen blurry images
- Reduce pixelation and improve clarity
- Enhance resolution for better print results
- Optimize color and contrast
Please note: While we'll do our best to improve your image, results depend on the original file quality. Severely degraded images may have limitations. We'll contact you if enhancement isn't possible or if we need a better source file. If you are not happy with the change, you will be fully refunded. If you are happy we will send you a file without 3DTSTUDIO watermark proof.
Image Enhancement Disclaimer:
Enhancement results vary depending on the original file quality. If acceptable print quality cannot be achieved, the enhancement fee will be fully refunded.
To request this service, contact us at our email with your file(s) attached with the email send to CS.3DTSTUDIO@gmail.com , We will go from there.
DPI only matters at the final print size — NOT the file size.
Example:
If the image is 3000 × 3000 pixels, that equals:
- 300 DPI at 10" × 10"
- 150 DPI at 20" × 20"
Perfect Example:
- A 12" × 12" front print → needs at least 3600 × 3600 px
