  1. PDF file with lines broken apart

    I took a good look at the file and honestly, colouring that wouldn't be that difficult at all...it's actually made up of a lot of open paths in the first place...the broken segments are mainly on the curves..I've had and I'm sure others here have had a lot worse than that... Just start working...
  2. Software stupor

    What software did you use whilst in the engraving business?
  3. PDF file with lines broken apart

    Like Sebastien says...it's a .dxf/.dwg....they're almost always supplied like this to me. Best way I've found is to isolate it on it's own layer...draw in your blocks of colour on a new layer then put that layer behind the line drawing. Forgot to mention have another copy of the line drawing...

  10. RE: Tech Ink Profile

    I've never seen profiles for Techink, had to build my own. The yellow is very dark, the cyan & black is deep, the magenta a little weak so without profiling the output was dull with a green gray cast.
  11. Epson Pro GS6000 Printer

    Your missing the point...of course I know it's a Mutoh chassis and Mutoh build more large format printers than anybody...but it's the ink and the 8 colour inkset that sets the Epson apart. For me it's all about print quality and colour matching. If I want Pantone Orange 021C I get it....

    Gary's suggestion seems the obvious solution but... Are you using the firewire? It will do this if you have it running through a slow parallel port.
