Then why did you bring it up? That's the right attitude exactly. We'd do business with the prince of freaking darkness and/or anyone else of any flavor as long as they paid as agreed.

Pity about poor Albert Einstein and Michaelangelo, if only they'd have had a Calmstrip they might have amounted to something. Of course, they lived when 'autism' wasn't even a word, Even if it were, no one gave a damn about your problems. Unlike today, when you're expected to fall all over...

I outsource everything I can. Read all of the problems people experience with their tackle on this forum. Every time something is outsourced someone else has to worry about all that crap. I just double the prince and deliver the stuff. Often it requires some trivial installation, all the better...

'Calmstrips'? Really? One might think that by producing such nonsense that they'd be contributing to the onrushing deterioration of the human race. Anyone that needs contact with a 'Calmstrip' is probably a self-absorbed millennial that has just encountered something that they deem unpleasant...

I've had a few of those. I told them that RGB is what they're getting and to just input that, the RGB, to whatever they were using for a RIP and use it. That I'd pay for the results no matter what. I did so, they did so, and every one, as in all, of them called me with words to the effect "WOW...

The cut command doesn't work for contour lines and bitmaps. Just make them not contour lines and you can then cut them. Of course, they won't cut at the right location without using the registration marks. There's a way to do that manually as well but I'm not going to tell you how to do it. This...

Right next to the icon for printing and/or print and cut, is an icon that's supposed to looke like a blade [it looks to like a thumbtack]. That's the cut command. No print, just send everything to the cutter.There must be some menu entree that does the same thing but I've never used such. Just...

Be sure your page length is set to something that will accommodate the length to be cut and use 4 point manual marks instead of the auto-read type 1 or 2 marks. If you can load a 15' sheet such that it runs straight you're a better man than I am Gunga Din.

80" is the Graphtec default page size. Somewhere, buried in the menus, is an item that will let you set the page size to whatever your roll length is.

Why are you bothering with EPS files? From Corel export as CMX [legacy]. They come right into Flexi with no masking, text as text [assuming you have the same array of font files available on the destination machine], and minimal color shift. Going to EPS or AI or even PDF is just making more...

That's why it's called 'die cutting', it's done with a die. Doing it on a plotter, even limited to simple shapes, is a stunt, not a method.

Actually, when Adam met Eve his first words were "Stand back, I don't know how big it's gonna get!"

Why? Have you seen every one? Even if you had, is it the standard because they say it's the standard or do they say it's the standard because it is the standard? If the former, what is their authority to proclaim this standard. If the latter, just who is the authority that proclaims the standard?

Pet peeve time. Autos are designed, dresses are designed, all manner of things are designed. Signs however are laid out. Now back to your regular round of amusing opinions.

Had to get a new PC the other day. Moved most everything over using Laplink. I had been running Flexi 8.5 or maybe 6 [it's out in the shop and I'm in the house] and it had moved over properly from the old windows 10 PRO to my fine new windows 10 home machine. I moved the dongle to the new...

Twaddle. There's only one race, human. The least important thing about people is their physical characteristics. The only difference between poeple is cultural. Cultures differ and some are preferable to others. Some vastly preferable. People that seem to spend their time desperately seeking to...

Wow. I'm paying around $90 US/gallon from Fellers. You should be able to get it for less than $77 US/liter. It goes a long way. I've always thinned it until it's about the consistency of whole milk. I mix up about a pint plus or minus at a time and store that mixture in an air-tight plastic...

Clear Shield Classic or Original Formula, Don't use any other formulation. I just mop it on with a foam brush, it levels extremely well as it dries. It's proven to be far more UV protection than vinyl laminates and sufficiently tough for most all applications.

You're always able to say and to some extent do whatever you want. If it should offend someone so much the better.
