I've been with the company 19 years and counting. We've always had at least one full time "salesperson" of sorts. More like a customer service team. We normally have 2 designated but we all can help customers. We really don't have a need to "sell". We get enough business as it is. Whenever we...

Ha, found the Derringer font too but...

Or in darker room just shine a flashlight on it. We print to reflective all the time. Latex though.

When we first got our HP Latex printers we started with printing different Pantone charts. BTW Corel has had a nice macro to create them for years. Anyway, we soon realized that there are too many variables to consider. Media type, laminate type, number of passes, etc. We now just rely on the...

Ha, we have a "Jersey Mike" green, "Sacred Heart" purple, "NWFSC" red, and a few others.

Omega software has the ability to make windows fonts from these. We had Omega years ago but no longer have that workstation set up. I could give the text I need and someone, who is willing, type them out and send me an eps files.

Anyone know a windows equivalent to Jenson Medium Acct. AK Rev. B?

Jumped over to the Corel Community forum and asked a friend of mine who often posts about the incompatibility between AMD and CorelDraw. I, myself, haven't any experience with it. We've always had NVidia here at work, as well as, on all my personal pc's. Here's his reply. "Myron I wish I could...

I personally would stay away from AMD. There are some design software (CorelDRAW) that doesn't work well together.

Might try a form of Zing Rust or Zing Rust Rust Demo Base

Right you are. Our print tech has just relied on the "canned" profiles available for the type of media. He has only tweaked a few and gave them unique names.

Me, a professional. :roflmao:

Latex HP's here. I'm not the print tech but I know our standard is 8pass. We have certain clients who are very particular of their branding colors, as they should be, so sometimes in order to hit that we have to bump up passes but rarely above 12. Interesting too that pantone colors print closer...

Unprofessional not to.

Shouldn't be any white around the edge if set up correctly and pull away the out ring as described.

Most times we'll cut twice but in a different way than described here. First cut to just cut the vinyl, 2nd cut is offset slightly larger and set to "punch-cut" aka Half Cut. Wouldn't want to do it this way for any run more than, say, 50 though. lol Then go back and pull off the outer "ring"

Yeah, thanks, kinda figured that part out. Also figured out that the blue anchor points are part of guides. I can marquee select those anchor points and delete 'em but still doesn't make a difference when saving as pdf. Only if I copy and paste to a new doc.

I think you're right, Doc. lol Maybe it wasn't designed in illy. Something definitely "wonky" in the file. If I go ctrl+a (select all) it says 227.5417w x 227.5417h. If I marquee select just the artwork it says 96.5178w x 34.5052h. So I copy, create a new doc at 97w x 35h then paste, then save...

I appreciate the input. I've tried this and several other things but always comes out the same way. I'm opening the pdf in illustrator and then save as pdf trying a different setting each time to no avail. The kicker is that if I start from a new doc and create several small rectangles with drop...

3rd party illustrator file given as pdf. 3'h x 8'w with 975 blades of grass along the bottom at approx 2"h, each with its own drop shadow. The pdf reads each of those drop shadows as the full 3x8 @ 300 dpi. This actually "bloats" the file. Why are they not just slightly larger than the blades of...
