How to Make Silkscreen Clear and Beautiful on PCB | PCBfast

To ensure that the silkscreen text on your PCB is clear, legible, and aesthetically pleasing, PCBfast recommends the following design standards:

• For normal (positive) text, the minimum line width should be 0.15 mm, and the minimum character height should be 0.8 mm. A width-to-height ratio of 1:5 is ideal for best printing results.

• For negative text (reversed silkscreen), please ensure the line width is at least 0.25 mm and the character height is at least 1.25 mm to maintain readability after printing.

Following these guidelines helps PCBfast deliver clean, precise, and durable silkscreen printing on every circuit board.
