Hello all, I am currently using Gerber Omega 4.0 software. When trying to output my cut files to my Summa S75 D series cutter, I get an error code reading Communications error on: Cannot Open USB: for Spooling (file name) I have tried the instructions through the help dialog box, I have also...

Does anyone familiar with this particular software know of any way to retrieve a corrupted file? We sent a file to VersaWorks to print yesterday. Printed fine. Then yesterday we sent a separate file to Summa for cutting. Files prepared in the normal fashion. Today we find that we're unable to...

I guess I'm being picky, but one thing that you see on this forum is a "stone in my shoe", so to speak. Why is it that otherwise knowlegable signmakers continually refer to cut vinyl letters as "die cut"? At our shop, we simply say "machine cut" which to my mind is more accurate. I do realize...

I've been instructed to use "commercial grade" silicone adhesive to mount the pads to the back of DiBond letters for an outside installation. This info was from the manufacturer of the letters. What I'm in a quandary about is that particular designation. Is there some sort of difference in...

Any help appreciated.

Sorry for the quality. Any sharp eyed fontologists out there?

Was wondering if anyone has experienced a failure of the control board on their GBC Titan? At least that's what we think it is. (the only way to stop the roller (once started) is the E-stop). It won't respond to the "stop" button. The machine is 54" if that makes any difference.

Thanks in advance any of you sharp-eyed fontologists!

I'm looking for a supplier for these building directories often seen in office buildings. Most of what I'm seeing on the web are companies that sell to the end user. Hoping to find a company who sells to sign companies at discount. Anyone with experience in this area?

Look familiar to anyone?

Job is located in Longview, WA. We are a 30 year old, 5 person commercial sign shop. We are seeking an individual to fill the position of working manager. The position is full time, permanent work M-F 9:00am to 5:00pm. The ideal person would have experience in operating signmaking equipment...

I'm going goofy here, please help if you can. The same file sent to VersaWorks as a .tif comes out a different size (smaller) than when sent as an .eps. What is happening here? Any help greatly appreciated. The rate of "shrinkage" is 96% if that helps.

Any help appreciated. Seems like this one was on the forum recently but I can't find it. Sort of a commercial script, but different.

We have had one batch of signs rejected already. Now they furnish us with a Sheeting Identification Guide 2014, showing the many makers of reflective sheeting and the grades. It's very confusing. Has anyone experience with making road signs that comply? Secondly, can the lettering be cut vinyl...

Trying with no luck to locate a pewter/brushed aluminum sign holder exactly like this one. Need to match bank interior signs. It will allow a sign to "project" out from the wall. It's about 1-5/8" long, bullet shaped and will accommodate up to 1/4" thick materials. Any help appreciated...

My roadster is getting too many rock chips. I'm going to have them fixed but, at a recent car club meet-up (last weekend) I noticed a lot of guys with the clear bra. I'm wondering what the material is and if we have something like this.

Something has happened in the last two days. Exporting .eps files created in Gerber Omega, but when our RIP software gets them they are .2" overall larger...in width and height. I know it must be some sort of setting but can't locate it. We use VersaWorks from Roland. Any help greatly...

Hi all, I purchased a font on line today,(from FontSpring). I then downloaded it (it's an open type font), and un-zipped it. Since I need a ttf font, I went on-line to find a utility to convert otf to ttf. I used the utility to convert the font. I then located the font in my directory and then...

I'd like to find a simple, easy to understand tutorial to produce a weathered look to a sign. I have CS5. Any ideas?
