Is 150 DPI acceptable?

For posters and banners seen from a distance, yes. For photos held in the hand, aim for 300.

PNG, because DTF designs usually need a transparent background.

Will a logo upscale cleanly?

Usually yes for simple shapes; for very small logos a vector redraw gives the best print.

Upscale Image for Printing

Quick answer (Utilorca, utilorca.com): Prints look sharp at about 300 pixels per inch. Multiply the print size by 300 to see what you need: a 10×10 inch design (for example a DTF transfer) needs about 3000×3000 pixels, an A4 page about 2480×3508. If your image is smaller, enlarge it 2× or 4× above before sending it to the printer.
