I know this is a dead thread but for anyone searching for how to deal with cutting problems, this is not a cutting problem This is a problem of unrealistic expectations, or as the post above points out, a problem with not knowing how to use bleed.

Reminds me of The Expert, where marketing and creative tell Anderson they need him to give them "seven red lines, all of them strictly perpendicular" o_O

I started with a .pdf and then sent them a 400dpi tif hoping to placate them. They ignored the tif and further "explained" the issues - This renders fine in Acrobat and Photoshop and I just opened it in Flexi print & cut without a problem. Flexi did ask what resolution to emulate the...

We sent out an order for some stainless water bottles. I sent a completely vectored file. The imprint method is full color digital. They sent pictures of a production proof advising us that our art had issues. Y'all, look at this registration. And then for the Coupe De Gratchie they...

Signstein I had given up and ordered out of house. Would you and JBurton share if you are printing unidirectional, if you have a delay, and/or what your drying temperature is? Thanks guys! I've eaten almost 60' of this roll but maybe I can get something out of the rest of it.

Thanks y'all!

To be fair, I'm not talking about a slight color variation here :-D never mind an off shade of gray, we're all the way into purples on this one! The strip along the bottom is black ink only - I cut it out of the calibration chart the printer runs. I tried your advice about bringing the icc...

Any of you wonderful people know what this font is?

I have tried RGB 128 128 128, one of the Pantone Cool Grays, and CMYK 52% 43% 43% 7% (this is what both Photoshop and Corel give when converting RGB 128128128 OR Lab 53,0,0 to CMYK SWOP v2). When creating the pdf for HP production manager I have sent the colors as native and embedded the color...

Nothing - clicking on the Original will revert the "current setting" one to the original, but it only does something after you've selected a variation. Also, say you make it more green, then more yellow, then print it. You don't like it and decide to go in a different direction. When you go...

Unfortunately, the 315 doesn't have a spectrometer for making profiles. I could understand that if Flexi was sending it gray and the printer wasn't hitting it because the profile wasn't quite right. The issue I'm trying to wrap my head around is why does Flexi, using the stock company made...

No worries, it does look like this might be a useful window! However it is a disaster. First of all, the "amount of adjustment" slider has FORTY levels - the six bars mean nothing. Why they couldn't give us a numbered slider for consistency (there is also no way to save the settings). Also...

Version 19 - it's the perpetual license version that came with the package. Under the "Color Adjustment" tab is this button that takes you to the horrific "Variations" window. To clarify though, I am not trying to use that window, the only reason I included it was to show that Flexi does...

I've got a 315 print/cut. For years I've had grays be WAY too warm on some (most) materials. In this particular case I'm using the correct profile for the Arlon product. I've been running the calibration on the printer to no avail. I just realized that if I pull up the janky "variations"...

I've got a client wanting to know if he can/should varnish over signgold lettering I'm applying to his boat.

Tommy did you ever figure this out? I have been having the same trouble all of a sudden. I've been resorting to that and cutting laminated material without issue. The other day though I printed material I hadn't laminated (laminating reverses the material direction) and the job cut upside...

I have to affix a 2"x5" aluminum plate to a concrete pedestal (see below) I was thinking about just putting down a tape mask and then coating the area with silicone, scratching up the back of the plate and sticking it on. How should I be installing it ? Thanks!

So do you know if 3M 3662 with their floor lam would be good? I won't be able to make the lam oversize though as I would be ordering it from 365

Thanks Bill - I found someone who will do me a 21" x 21" thin sheet of laser etched metal that will look great for the dedication.
