Really? My firmware is no older than a year or so. Did you notice that i have a 365?

Thanks for the tip, I'll check. From what I've heard, and seen, it should not be possible, but maybe it is with the latest firmware.

Glad to hear you got it to work. A few things to get used to perhaps but I'm sure you'll find it useful. Not sure you can do pouncing via "print", unless you do it manually in the file, somehow. By the way, my production machine is a Mimaki CG/FX-II 160 (not a dinosaur perhaps but at least...

My HP365 is doing a very good job in most cases. Yes, it may be a little more grainy than eco-solve (had a Mimaki JV33 with SS21 ink) and very small text or fine details may be a little more blurry. But as long as a head alignment is performed before crucial prints, and the right printing...

As you probably already know, Mimaki has an Illustrator version of the FineCut plugin too, but I'm not sure you can get a copy "just like that", they seem to guard their software like it was the gold reserve. Give it a try though, it is quite good. Drivers is on their site too but it sounds like...

FWIW, I have made some tests with a Mutoh VJ-626UF flatbed UV-printer, with both rigid (UH21) and flexible (US11) inks. They both printed nice on the transfer material I use (Siser Colorprint), and wash and scratch resistance is very good (add some varnish and I would say excellent). BUT, I...

Glad you got it to work. As you probably have understood, I'm on CorelDRAW (since version 2) and Designer can not yet replace it, but it is very interesting and has many nice features.

FWIW, I tried the PDF for Export preset and also the PDF/X-1 and X-3 presets, and overprint was kept when opening these in CorelDRAW 2021, so I assume it should work also in Onyx. Check to make sure "Honour spot colours" is enabled in the export dialog, to prevent that the colors get converted...

No, haven't tried it yet. (Edit: Made a quick test and overprint seems to work correctly.) Here's a screenshot from the Help file:

The Affinity suite is taking huge steps to become a serious competitor to the big ones, but still has a long way to go in some areas and is not an alternative for me, yet. For that price though, I didn't hesitate to buy the whole suite, just because I like some features and because my...

Can't say I have any specific recommendations for you. I live and work in Sweden and for the majority of my work I use calendered Image Perfect vinyls, they are very easy to weed and to work with in general, and durability is very good for being calendered vinyls. They are sold here by Spandex...

Why not just tape a couple of meters of a more stable material (banner for example) to the leading edge of the fabric, and then connect it with the take-up reel?

It should be possible to (at least in later versions, don't remember 2017) select all objects, then open the Outline Pen dialog (F12) and check "Scale with object". Click OK without changing anything else in the dialog. This should, at least in theory (doesn't work on powerclipped object for...

My experience with UV inks (Mutoh rigid and flexible) is that they are useful for many things but not suitable for outdoor stickers. The inks seem to overcure in sunlight and the sticker may start to curl over time, and even fell off, if printed near the edges. Cured rigid ink is like concrete...

Vector Warp looks very promising and is definitely comparable to, or even more powerful than, CorelDRAW's Envelope and Perspective features, and it has real time preview. Can't get constrain or snapping to work when dragging a vector warp though, but maybe I'm missing something. Shape Builder...

I am able to run my old Graphtec FC4100 cutter, when needed, from a Windows 10 computer with a USB to Serial adapter/converter. Cannot guarantee it will work (OS, drivers, software?) but an adapter shouldn't cost much, so it may be worth a try.

Try Beautiful Script.

The shrinkage in your picture doesn't look normal, not even for a calendared vinyl, and certainly not for a rather small sticker on an almost flat surface. How do you apply the laminate? Is it possible that you stretch the laminate when you apply it, and that it simply shrinks back to "normal"...

FWIW, my experience with Avery vinyls is that they are generally more difficult to weed than other brands. The adhesive starts to "self-heal" after a few minutes, which sometimes makes weeding of small parts a real pain. I assume that since many users like their cut vinyls, it may be depending...

Milasian Circa PERSONAL (Medium) seems to be pretty close.
