I'm running prints using Onyx Thrive 18 and I have all profiles on. Images that have black or grayscale saturation are printing with a purple tint. I'm not sure if it's the printer ink or the onyx thrive software that is causing the issue. I'm new to latex printing and this issue is just one...

I'm doing a two-layer decal in order to do a drop shadow in a different color than the object. I created the effect using the drop shadow effects tool. The trouble is, Flexi wants to make the original object transparent. I can't figure out out to make it a solid color. I am able to change the...

Ok, so here's my dilemma. I have CC open with two different files side by side. Same PMS color 369 is chosen for each and yet they appear different. Checking the CMYK percentages shows each file has them set differently. My document mode, color settings are the same in both files. Any idea why...

A while back a co-worker and I made an Excel sheet with all the RGB and CMYK colors available from the Find a Pantone Color chart of the Pantone site for reference. This morning I used Excel and a text editor to make an RGB palette for GPL palette based programs (GIMP, Inkscape, etc.), as I...

Trying to print a bunch of posters with a gray gradient background. The image file is a jpg ripped as an EPS out of flexi. The gray gradient background keeps making this strange blotchy color pattern. Any suggestions on how to get rid of this?

Is it possible to get a custom color in cut vinyl instead of doing print and cut? Like maybe vinyls made with a specific pantone color? It would be a lot easier to get cut vinyl in a specific color (which I'll be using quite a but as it our company color) than having to do a cut and print every...
