Plain-English summary
- You're buying a license to use DIY Halftones. You don't own the software, but everything you make with it is yours, including for commercial printing.
- One purchase covers up to 6 people in your business, each on their own computer (6 computers total), and includes both the Windows and Mac versions. Don't share, resell, or post the installer or download link.
- This is a digital product. All sales are final once the download link is delivered. No refunds. If something doesn't work, contact support first and we'll help.
- The software is provided "as is." Our liability is limited to what you paid. Florida law applies.
1. Who we are and what this agreement is
These terms are a legal agreement between you and Dimelo 2 Live LLC, doing business as DIY Printz, 5051 S. State Rd 7, Ste 505, Davie, FL 33314 ("DIY Printz," "we," "us"). By checking the acceptance box, downloading, installing, or using DIY Halftones, you agree to these terms. If you don't agree, don't download or use the software.
2. Definitions
- "Software" means the DIY Halftones desktop application, its installers, documentation, and any updates we provide.
- "Order" means your purchase of the Software through diyprintz.com or another DIY Printz sales channel (for example, order #2855).
- "Download Link" means the link we send you to download the Software.
- "You" or "Licensee" means the person or business that placed the Order and accepted these terms.
- "Your Content" means artwork, images, and files you load into the Software, and the output files it creates from them.
- "Signed Record" means the electronic record created when you accept these terms (see Sections 17 and 18).
3. The Software
Software description and features
DIY Halftones is a standalone DTF (direct-to-film) art-prep desktop application. It is not a plugin and does not need any host application. Version 3.0.1 includes:
- converting artwork into DTF-ready halftones, with several dot types;
- color knockout and white-underlay choke;
- exporting transparent 300 DPI PNG files;
- a built-in gang sheet builder that auto-nests designs on 22-inch-wide sheets and exports print-ready PNGs.
- a Create Gang Sheet button under Export PNG that sends the current halftone straight to the gang sheet;
- clean, orderless gang sheets (no order header or info bar printed on the sheet);
- gang sheet files named automatically by date, time and size (for example
gangsheet_YYMMDD-HHMMSS_22x{length}_S1of2.png).
The Software works fully offline. It does not require an account, online activation, or a license key.
System requirements
- Windows: Windows 10 or 11, 64-bit. The Windows installer is not code-signed, so Windows (SmartScreen) may show an "unknown publisher" warning. This is expected.
- macOS: macOS 12 (Monterey) or newer. A universal build for Apple Silicon and Intel Macs, signed with an Apple Developer ID and notarized by Apple.
- Disk space: about 110 MB on Windows and about 250 MB on Mac.
- Memory: large gang sheets use a lot of memory (RAM). Performance depends on your computer. Results on low-memory machines may be slower or limited.
It is your responsibility to check that your computer meets these requirements before you buy. Not meeting them is not grounds for a refund.
4. Who can be a Licensee
You must be at least 18 years old and able to enter a binding contract. You may use the Software for personal or business purposes. If you accept on behalf of a business, you confirm that you are authorized to bind that business, and "you" includes that business.
5. License grant
Subject to these terms and to payment for your Order, we grant you a non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable license to install and use the Software on up to 6 computers that you own or control, for use by up to 6 people within your business, each on their own computer. One purchase covers both the Windows and Mac versions. The 6-computer limit is contractual: the Software does not enforce it, but this agreement does. The license is perpetual for the version you bought, unless it ends under Section 16.
6. Permitted use
You may:
- use the Software to prepare artwork for DTF, screen printing, and other print production;
- sell, print, and commercially use the output files and halftoned artwork you create, with no royalty owed to us;
- keep one backup copy of the installer for your own reinstall use.
7. Restrictions
You may not:
- share, sell, rent, lend, or give the Software, installer, or Download Link to anyone outside your license;
- resell, redistribute, or sublicense the Software, or bundle it with other products;
- post the Software, installer, or Download Link publicly (websites, file-sharing, social media, groups, or forums);
- reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or modify the Software, except where the law expressly allows it despite this restriction;
- remove copyright notices or branding;
- install it on more than the permitted number of devices;
- use the Software to infringe anyone's copyright or trademark, or for any unlawful purpose.
8. Updates and versions
We may release updates, fixes, or new versions. Updates we choose to give to existing customers are covered by these terms (or the terms in effect when the update is released). We are not required to provide updates, new features, or support for older operating systems. Major new versions may be sold separately.
9. Digital delivery and NO REFUNDS
- The Software is delivered digitally by Download Link to the email address on your Order.
- Delivery is complete once the Download Link has been sent to you.
- ALL SALES ARE FINAL. Because the Software is a digital product that cannot be "returned," we do not offer refunds, returns, or exchanges once the Download Link has been delivered, including for change of mind, incompatible hardware, or not reading the system requirements.
- Technical support instead of refunds: if the Software doesn't install or work as described, contact us at sales@diyprintz.com. We will make reasonable efforts to help you get it working.
- Chargebacks and disputes: you agree to contact DIY Printz support first and give us a reasonable chance (at least 48 hours; we aim to respond within 24 to 48 hours) to resolve any problem before filing a chargeback or payment dispute. You agree that your Signed Record, delivery records, and Order records may be submitted to your bank, card issuer, or payment processor as evidence that you accepted these terms and received the Software.
Nothing in this section limits rights that applicable law gives you and that cannot be waived.
10. Intellectual property
The Software, including its code, design, name, and documentation, belongs to Dimelo 2 Live LLC (DIY Printz) and/or its licensors and is protected by copyright and other laws. You are buying a license to use it, not ownership. All rights not expressly granted to you are reserved.
11. Your Content
Your artwork stays yours. We claim no ownership of Your Content or of the output files the Software creates from it. The Software runs offline and does not send Your Content to us. You are responsible for having the rights to any artwork you process, including trademarks, logos, and character art.
12. Third-party components
The Software may include third-party or open-source components that are subject to their own license terms. Where those terms apply, they govern that component. The Software includes open-source components, including Electron (MIT), Chromium (BSD-3-Clause and others), Node.js (MIT), FFmpeg (LGPL-2.1), and the Inter, Montserrat and Bebas Neue fonts (SIL Open Font License 1.1). Those components are licensed under their own terms, which are included with the Software and control over this agreement for those components.
13. Disclaimer of warranties
THE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE," WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not guarantee that the Software will be error-free or uninterrupted, or that output will suit a particular printer, RIP, film, ink, or garment. Always test-print before production runs. We are not responsible for wasted film, ink, garments, or reprints.
14. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent the law allows, our total liability for any claim related to the Software or these terms is limited to the amount you actually paid for the Software. We are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including lost profits, lost data, lost business, or production losses.
15. Indemnification
You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Dimelo 2 Live LLC (DIY Printz) and its owners, employees, and contractors from claims, losses, and costs (including reasonable attorney fees) arising from your misuse of the Software, your breach of these terms, or Your Content (including claims that your artwork infringes someone else's rights).
16. Termination
Your license ends automatically if you breach these terms, for example by sharing or reselling the Software or Download Link. When it ends, you must stop using the Software and delete all copies. We may also disable or expire Download Links. Sections 9 through 15 and 17 through 21 survive termination. Termination for breach does not entitle you to a refund.
17. Privacy and the Signed Record
When you accept these terms, we collect and keep: your full name, email address, order number, IP address, browser user agent, and the date and time of acceptance, plus the terms version and a fingerprint (hash) of the exact text you accepted. We use this only to record your acceptance, deliver the Software, provide support, and defend against disputes or chargebacks. We keep these records on DIY Printz's secure server, and add a summary to your order record in our Shopify store. We do not sell it. We may share it with payment processors or banks in a dispute, or where the law requires. The Software itself does not collect personal data.
18. Electronic signature consent
You agree to sign these terms electronically. Checking the acceptance box and clicking accept is your legal signature, with the same effect as a handwritten signature, under the U.S. Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act (E-SIGN Act, 15 U.S.C. § 7001 et seq.) and Florida's Uniform Electronic Transaction Act (Fla. Stat. § 668.50). You agree to receive these terms and related records electronically. You may request a copy of your Signed Record at any time at sales@diyprintz.com.
19. Governing law and venue
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Florida and applicable U.S. federal law, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Any dispute will be brought only in the state or federal courts located in Broward County, Florida, and you consent to that venue.
20. General terms
- Severability: if any part of these terms is found unenforceable, the rest stays in effect, and that part will be enforced to the maximum extent allowed.
- Entire agreement: these terms, together with your Order, are the entire agreement about the Software and replace any earlier statements.
- No waiver: if we don't enforce a term right away, that is not a waiver.
- Assignment: you may not transfer these terms or your license without our written consent.
- Changes to these terms: we may update these terms for future purchases and updates. Each version is numbered and dated. The version you signed governs your Order unless you accept a newer version (for example, to get an update).
