CADlink Digital Factory v10 FilmMaker — DTF RIP Software

CADlink Digital Factory v10 Direct To FilmMaker is a professional RIP software developed specifically for Direct to Film (DTF) printing — combining advanced colour management, white ink layer control, file preparation and production automation in a single platform. More than a standard RIP, it covers the complete DTF production workflow from artwork intake to optimised print output, delivering consistent, high-quality transfers on all fabric types and substrates.

The software generates separate CMYK and white ink layers with full control over white ink density, ink limits, mirroring and print resolution — ensuring strong white underbases and vibrant colour on every transfer. The Desktop Edition covers printers up to 17" / A2, while the Production Edition supports high-volume environments with production-class machines and broader printer compatibility. CorelDRAW, Illustrator and Photoshop plug-ins send jobs directly to production queues. Compatible with Windows 10 and 11.
