I assume you used "Decal" tool in Stud.io's Part Designer to make this?

Those are typically not compatible. LDraw parts are (at least should be) fully compatible with Stud.io, but vice-versa it's not the case. The Stud.io team has made several files on their own in that manner already.

In general patterns work a lot different than the "texture" approach in stud.io. Typically LDraw patterns are coded into the respective surface as a vector-like image, which has the benefit of being more scalable at different resolutions and also be more color consistent.

A texture feature ("TEXMAP") exists in LDraw as well, but this is typically used for far more complex things. Both the Lego and Star Wars logo already exist as re-usable sub-files, from which to build this pattern. There are also tools to help with integrating the text into the final part.

Is this a sticker or directly printed on the plastic?

If it's a sticker, the "plate" itself would be a "shortcut" of the existing unprinted tile and the new sticker "part".
