  1. Random Missing Open Type fonts in Windows 7

    So after upgrading to a newer (for me) computer with windows 7, I'm having an issue similar to 2012 when the Windows update made some open type font inaccessable in Corel but they are still in the fonts folder. I looked up the old info regarding the update and removing it, & found that I had the...
  2. Corel Draw and Windows 10

    For those who are on Windows 10 O/S, which version of Corel the least problematic? Finally upgrading some older computers in the shop, am I correct that you have to be on X7 or higher?
  3. Vector illustration/t-shirt design

    It's that time of year again... All vector in Corel
  4. App tape on wrap graphics?

    I have a repair project for a body shop to just install a couple of supplied full size wrap panels. When the customer dropped off the vehicle & the graphics, the first thing I notice is they are all app taped. Usually I wouldn't set up jobs I do in house this way, so I'm wondering how many (if...
  5. Mounting acrylic to brick wall options

    I have a project where I need to mount a routed shape (in this case a paw print about 15" x 14") to a brick wall. The obvious choice is to drill into the brick but was wondering if there is an adhesive solution that would be durable long term.
  6. Props to Fellers

    Had some headstrikes that caused me to run short of vinyl on a job, so had to order more later in the day than I would usually order supplies. The vinyl I needed wasn't available in a location that would still ship that day, I was told, but it would ship the next day (Thurs.) and I'd have it...

    Here's a couple vector illustrations that I recently completed for a couple of t-shirt projects. 100% vector art done in Corel.
  8. Anyone know this one?

    Pretty sure I've seen this one before, but the site I think I found it on just did a redesign and their fonts page isn't working. Any help is appreciated - thanks!
  9. Removing used Liner from take up roll

    Anyone have any tricks they'd like to share on removing the used liner sheet from the take up roll after you've used up a roll of lam besides unrolling and re rolling? A friend of mine worked in a shop where they did something with taping a 1/2" wide stripe of coro to the roller core so they...
  10. Well, this is a new one...

    Had a real odd one yesterday, had a 60" wide graphic printed, lammed and on the cutter, set up as a segmented cutting job with three sections. Job started and was running fine, so I went back to cleaning up the truck to letter. I come back and the cutting is done - I take it out of the machine...
  11. Slowing down cutting on Mutoh Value Cut

    I'm sure I'm just overlooking something, but how do you set the material advance speed on the Value Cut? Sending the cut from Flexi - even with the settings for the plotter in the RIP & on the machine set he same, (speed 20 cm/sec, cut slow), when the material advances, it moves so fast that it...
  12. Total Garbage!

    I know Flexi is supposed to be the "standard", I worked with it years ago and recently bought another sign company and got Flexi 12 as part of the deal. As same as my past experience, this program is the most unstable, utterly useless piece of garbage ever created. Had issues with not being...
  13. Wall graphics question

    Working on a project that needs wall graphics on an interior painted cinder block wall that will be printed on Arlon DPF 8000 and contour cut. Will using app tape cause a big headache during installation?
  14. Sp 300 Color Issue

    Back in Sept., I had the Black/Cyan printhead on my SP300 replaced - everything was fine, colors right on and images crisp. Now I'm noticing on repeat jobs that the blue is printing much lighter and throwing off any colors with a blue component. I'm printing from the same RIPed file as before...
  15. VersaWorks problem

    OK, is there a way to delete a job from the queue besides re-initializing and losing all of your job files? The source of the problem is when a file from Corel gets exported as an eps that contains a pattern fill - when the file loads in the job queue it stalls at 90%, but there's no way to...
  16. Upgrading Corel from X3 opinions

    I know when X7 came out there were a lot of issues with it - looking for some opinions from users if it's more stable now, or would upgrading to X6 be a safer move.
  17. Font ID w/ some clues!

    Been searching for this one with no luck. Font mis-match shows the name "mon-6", tried searching that, monogram, monday to no avail. Any of the gurus out there know?
  18. Getting Versa Works to print like Flexi

    So here's my dilemma - I have jobs to do that have been previously printed from Flexi. I have sample prints to match to and the original files they were printed from, but the colors are off. I've tried various different profiles and settings, even tried re-exporting, but nothing is getting me to...

  20. Windows update screws up fonts!!
