Overview

PF Concept is one of Europe's largest promotional product suppliers, with a catalogue spanning drinkware, bags, writing instruments, apparel and technology. For a reseller, the scale of that catalogue is both the attraction and the problem. Thousands of products, each with its own print areas, decoration methods and file requirements, is more than any DTP team can hold in their heads.

FastEditor connects to PF Concept directly by API. 2,559 products are live and synced daily, with decoration methods and print areas already attached to every one. FastEditor prepares customer artwork using the selected product’s configured print area, decoration technique and supplier requirements. Raster logos are vectorized when the technique requires vector output. The editor applies automatic improvements and guides customers through any artwork issues. After the customer places an order, the webshop’s Sale Notification triggers the configured production file and proof, without a separate manual prepress step.

How the integration works

The PF Concept connection is a direct API integration, not a periodic file drop. Product data, variants, images and decoration specifications refresh every day, so when PF Concept changes or discontinues a range, that update is available through the feed without anyone touching a spreadsheet. How discontinued items behave in your storefront depends on your webshop setup.

Three things travel with every product:

  • Print areas. The position, size and shape of each decorable area, so the editor constrains a customer's design to what the product can physically take.
  • Decoration methods. Which techniques are available on that specific product, each carrying its own limits on colour count, line weight and resolution.
  • 3D models and mood scenes. Where PF Concept supplies them, products render in 3D with the customer's own logo in place, and in styled photographic scenes rather than on a plain white background.

Choose the right regional collection

PF Concept's European and UK production locations can use different product references and decoration configurations. Choose the collection for the region supplying your order, so the editor uses the matching product and production settings.

Artwork requirements

Every PF Concept product carries its own artwork rules, and FastEditor validates against them before a production file is ever generated. The checks that run on each upload:

  • Line thickness. FastEditor provides an indication to help the user assess fine detail against the selected product and decoration technique’s requirements. Thin lines are not automatically corrected. Follow the supplier’s requirement for that configuration rather than a single minimum for every product.
  • Colour limits. Screen printing and pad printing carry a maximum number of spot colours per position. A four-colour logo headed for a two-colour pad print is stopped before it ships.
  • Resolution and DPI. Raster uploads are measured against the actual output size for the chosen product and method, not against a generic threshold.
  • File formats. Customers upload whatever they have: JPG, PNG, PDF, AI or EPS. Raster logos are vectorized when the selected decoration technique requires vector output; when it does not, FastEditor may recommend vectorization and the user can choose whether to apply it.
  • Colour schema. RGB uploads convert to the colour space the method requires, with Pantone matching where the method supports spot colour.

These rules are aligned with PF Concept's own specifications, so artwork that passes in the editor is prepared to what their production requires.

How to start selling

  1. Start with the PF Concept catalogue. 2,559 products across drinkware, bags, writing instruments, apparel and tech are live in the FastEditor Product Hub with their print areas and methods already attached.
  2. Choose how customers experience it. Embed the Logo Editor on your webshop, or work in the Studio Tool for internal quotes. Where PF Concept supplies a 3D model, the product opens in FastEditor in true 3D with the customer's logo in place.
  3. Design, preview and validate in one place. The logo sits inside the real print area, renders in 3D or a styled mood scene rather than on a plain background, and is checked against PF Concept's colour and line rules before approval.
  4. Generate files for PF Concept production. In Studio Tool, use Download to generate the files for the selected product and decoration technique. In Logo Editor, the webshop sends a Sale Notification after the customer places the order to trigger file generation. The proof and production file follow the selected supplier configuration. PF Concept's catalogue feed is refreshed daily.

Frequently asked questions

How many PF Concept products are available through FastEditor?

2,559 PF Concept products are live in the FastEditor Product Hub. The catalogue connects by direct API and refreshes daily, so availability and specifications stay current without manual updates.

Which PF Concept decoration methods does FastEditor support?

Sixteen methods are mapped, including screen printing, pad printing, embroidery, laser engraving, digital printing, offset printing, sublimation, DTF transfer, doming, embossing, hotstamp, IML and relief moulding. Each product carries the methods available for it, with the colour and line-weight limits that method imposes.

Do PF Concept orders produce a print-ready file automatically?

Yes. FastEditor generates a proof and a production file using the selected product and decoration technique’s configured supplier specifications. Raster logos are vectorized automatically when vector output is required; otherwise vectorization may be recommended and is optional. In Studio Tool, generate the files with Download. In Logo Editor, the webshop sends a Sale Notification after the customer places the order to trigger file generation. The production format depends on the configuration and can be JPG, PNG, PDF or SVG. Embroidery DST output is currently in testing and is not yet available.

Can customers see PF Concept products in 3D before ordering?

Yes, for products where PF Concept supplies a 3D model. The customer's own logo renders on the product in 3D, and mood scenes place it in a styled photographic setting rather than on a plain background.
