  1. Why these EMF Files don't retain their size?

    Ok, I;ve been using an Ioline plotter for the past 22 years. Got this Mimaki CG SRIII and the "Fine Cut" wizard thingy I loaded in CorelDraw only accepts EMF's.

  8. HP Designjet 6100ps

  18. How to apply prints?

    Ok, when I get a printer up and running, I will need some method of applying prints. .I have an area in my 'clean space' workroom large enough to put a 4x9 table or maybe even a 5x10. What material would you recommend as a top? Is there a special tool/machine/jig whatever I could use to, say...
