  1. Gerber Edge software key question

    I would agree with Fred's number. I questioned the $2000 amount this morning in a meeting and everyone seem to say that that figure was way to high. So I'd call again or call your / a distributor and see what they say. I also think $45 to look up a password is too much, but thats the Gerber...
  2. Gerber font help

    Now that’s what you get when you switch to the other side. The only way I know how to do this would be the following: 1) Still need GA or Omega loaded 2) Create a job and type every character from the font and export each character in AI format 3) Purchase Fontographer ($$$) if it’s still...
  3. How do I get custom spot colors to transfer with the file?

    From what I have played with all user Spot colors are saved in a file called userinks.cpl. There does not seem to be a way for Corel to embed the color palette into any type of output file. For a test I create a Gerber Spot Foil palette (all colors saved in userinks.cpl), create a simple...
  4. Adobe AI - Embedded - Link

    I see in Illustrator that I can either have embedded or linked artwork. I also see how I can change a linked object into embedded via the link palette menu but can I change an embedded object back to link ? or do I just delete and replace the original object ?
  5. System OS upgrades

    Just a note that people should be thinking about if they have not already and that is new computers or their computer's operating system upgrade. The next release of Omega will ONLY operate on Microsoft W2K or XP. Why, well it is just too much work to support the older systems for one and as...
  6. Importing PDF Files

    Steve you can send me the file and I'll send you an Omega 2.1 PLT file. I'm out of the office today but will be in the rest of the week.
  7. Red Hat & Signmaking?

    At the moment we can't even keep up with Mr. Gate's OSs. There is another right around the corner (Longhorn) and we have not even looked at it yet. I don't see Gerber working with Linux in the near future. I would hope that the Mac OS would be far more common then Linux.
  8. My Omega program doesn't like Flexi

    Omega - Flexi - parallel port Yes, Zipper this should let both survive on the same system.
  9. My Omega program doesn't like Flexi

    Omega - Flexi - Warp 9 driver Ok here is the scoop on the Omega – Flexi – parallel port driver problem. Omega delivers and needs version 4,6,0,0 of the Warp 9 parallel port driver. I believe this is installed in the Windows folder or somewhere with in the Windows folder structure. The system...
  10. My Omega program doesn't like Flexi

    Omega - Flexi - parallel port I know it has to do with the version of the Warp 9 parallel port driver that Flexi loads. I will get and post the details on Mon / Tues. You should have posted here first and I would have dug some digging.

  12. Proper Edge print settings?

    Black Spots Check the Black / White filter under Color management for Edge printing.
  13. new problem with saved .tif files not opening...

    File Attributes I've seen a problem like this once with ICC profiles. Besides the file attributes you mentioned there are others and when programs attempt to open files there are a number of modes / codes / attributes that the program specifies. What I found was if I set the archive...
  14. Exasperating Problem!!!

    Print as Process I stand corrected (I'm standing right now). the "move" happens when reduce frame is turned on (I think)
  15. Exasperating Problem!!!

    Print as Process Everyone seems to have the right idea. In the 123... dialog there is "print as process". This will turn "cuts off" and print everything as process foils. In later software (not sure what versions of Plot) there is also a checkbox in the same dialog called "Keep cuts". For...
  16. Can't get Connected

    Corel and cutting How are you defining the "cut" shape ? If it's done with a "stroke", does the "stroke" have to be a particular color, size, etc? Does the EPS file have data on different layers ? T
  17. OMEGA vs. Flexi

    Omega - Graphtec Omega treats the Graphtec cutter as a simple HPGL cutter. No special feature support, etc. If the cuts were good at one time and now they are not I'd be looking at the cutter (blade), not the software. The difference in the software maybe in the way the software "breaks"...

    Ebay / PayPal Spam I only bought 1 item on Ebay just before Christmas and with in the last month I have gotten a number of SPAM emails saying my account has been accessed, or a new email has been added to my account. I just gont one from PayPal which I used on Ebay. All BS according to PayPal...
  19. Kerning in Omega

    Character Spacing If your font was created from a TrueType font (TrueType Font Converter) you can NOT use the spacing tool as the font does not hold the same attributes that a Gerber Font does. This is because we wanted the TTF to hold the same spacing it was design for. If you use TTF...
