I need to put this on a t-shirt and wear it at work.

We've run a fair amount of custom interior wayfinding here lately and have found the clearest result comes from mirror printing directly to acrylic, then backing it up with an opaque white layer, either of ink (rather fragile) or (preferable/more durable) white vinyl with white adhesive backing...

We don't - I can't say that I've personally used CorelDraw since the early '00s, to be honest. Our office is very firmly entrenched in the Adobe ecosystem. I wish I could! Unfortunately, I'm not the one with the wallet here. Which would you prefer instead? Yeah, I've had to rasterize in order...

Just as a follow up here - I'm finding more and more Canva PDF exports are doing this and it seems to have to do with boxes which the client believes to be solid colour, but which have indeed (As Ronny suggests) set to overprint. Examining the boxes in question via Illustrator, the boxes have a...

Thanks, I'll reset the height. I just put in a new blade after starting this thread and it was behaving the same.

Currently 0.15, marginal/no improvement at 0.00. Had previously tinkered at 0.2-0.25 and it was slightly worse then.

It's just plain Arial in Illustrator, and I'm using Finecut 9 to export. Have tried both cutlines as curves and fonts. Prints are relatively fine (another bugbear I have at the moment, but will address separately), but this is vinyl only. The ends don't meet. Corners don't match up cleanly. It...

Good Morning Folks, I am wondering if anyone has tips as far as how best to dial in the cutter settings to allow vinyl cutting to be more accurate at sizes 1cm or smaller? I am repeatedly coming away with mushy and/or incomplete corners. The font 50pt Arial, but is somewhat non-negotiable with...

Thanks folks, we'll take this all into consideration.

Hi Folks, I have a client who's looking for a weather-resistant outdoor garden stake on which I can mount, angled to 45 degrees, a 3x3.5" plaque. We're okay with running the plaques here but don't have a good line on where to get the stakes (we only need 6). Anyone here know who I should check...

So here's what it looks like to me - I've actually never changed anything in here. The two (illustration vs image) don't appear to be in disagreement, however.

(As an aside, saving as a PDF/X does fix this, but you only know to do this after the fact and the whole issue just sucks if you aren't around 100% of the time to catch it.)

So this'll be the second time I've run in to this issue - a client sends us a PDF and areas which appear white in RasterLink's preview (as well as Adobe Acrobat, AI), but when printed these transparent areas end up printing as cyan. Is there a setting I can change to either a) turn this off or...

I don't know if they will ship south of the border, but ND Graphics has some nationally stocked (in Canada), as far as I can tell.

For some reason, our rep doesn't carry the TransferRite 700 line - just an ultra high tack (the 1320). I should have access to SCPS-55 too. We are taking a full scale sample of what we're dealing with to test with some open roll stock, so we'll investigate this further. We don't have an...

Good Afternoon All. We've been putting together some truck trailer graphics here with calendared cut vinyl (MacMark 9800) and we're 0-2 on premask. Our usual premask (3M SCPM-3) has mostly failed to pull the vinyl off the liner. Thinking the age of the roll may have been a factor, we recently...

Honestly you're better off without them. Just a few minutes ago, I got back an order of cards that should have been pretty straightforward - Spot UV on a soft touch finish. Well over 1/3 of the order is unacceptable - smeared, drizzling varnish in unwanted areas, crooked/drizzled lines up and...

I'm no stranger to paper shortages myself - To me it's a matter of not supplying what was advertised. If a 16pt card is advertised, a 16pt card is what we should get. If they can't offer that based on what is on hand, they shouldn't make it look like they can. It affects how I present what I can...

SaraG - I see you're in Ontario - Try getting in touch with XLPrints.ca

Just a note on Sinalite - we've not had the necessity to run large format through them, but I really have to say their QA has been a bit uneven - labels are okay, but business cards? Registration issues, paper supply, and grain tracking have all caused us to request reprints multiple times. I...
