does it work on sweatshirt

I've put a transfer on a sweatshirt. It's been washed about 20 times and still in great shape. The transfer has the feel of the old red and white checked oil cloth table cloths (If you remember those).

Would this work for printing white font onto black shirts? If so, how would I do this?

no, you need white transfer sheets for white shirts, printers don't ususally print white. White is empty space. Use an outline font with a the outline color matching your fabric color, black for a black fabric etc. Print the lettering you desire onto white transfer paper and cut them apart using the borders of the outline font as a guide. Then iron them on. it may be difficult to keep them spaced properly though. Think about printing a black or matching background color onto the paper when you print the lettering then you won't have to worry about the spacing when you iron them on.

Can i use these on a charcoal gray shirt?

You can use them on any color shirt, white included. Just remember they print out on a white background, meaning anything that isn't printed or trimmed will be white on the shirt when ironed. Imagine it's like taking a sticker and putting it on the shirt.

How closely do you have to cut images? If you don't cut closely enough will there be a white border?

If you have a cricut/silhouette use the bleed setting when printing then cut with your machine. You'll have a perfect edge with no white!
