  1. end of support for windows 7

    One thing to think about...if you have an issue with Flexi, or Corel, or AI, or anything, and you seek help....what is the first question that tech will ask? "Which OS are you running?" And they will probably suggest you need to be running on Win 10 and won't try to troubleshoot too much if...
  2. end of support for windows 7

    At this point, computers are so cheap, they should be factored in to the cost of doing business, and probably should be replaced every 5 years or so to handle updated OS, as well as stay current with other software compatibility. We have one remaining design PC with Win 7 on it. It runs fine...
  3. Flexi 19 color mapping issues

    Yes the EPS file you create. And you can delete afterwards, sure. Once you save the color in the mapping process it never looks for that file, it only produces that color based on what you set it to output.
  4. Flexi 19 color mapping issues

    I would agree with SAI....the color name HAS to be the exact same as what you designate in the file. If the file color is "PANTONE 547 C" then the color mapping you create must be the exact same. If you create it as PANTONE 547C" it will not work. Or Simply as "547 C". It doesn't care what the...
  5. Just In Just heard about this..............................

    I'm the same way Fred. Schools seem to make you conform to righthandedness....I am righthanded, in life, but bat, hockey stick, and golf lefty, even started playing drums lefty, but ended up playing righthanded because lefty was "wrong". Even shooting guns I am left eye dominant.
  6. Tabletop banner stand

    Orbus has an 11" x 19". That's closer... Oh and Catapult has 11.75" x 20"
  7. Help with letter mounting

    That may be why they didn't come tapped for studs. 1/4" is too thin. They should have told you they can't do it. It CAN be done, but very carefully and it really isn't recommended.
  8. Printing on laminate

    Back that clear vinyl with white vinyl afterwards if it doesn't get backlit. Will look tons better. You need that white in there for the colors to be right.
  9. Contour cut with and without holes in Flexi?

    Sometimes you have to separate your contour cut from the rest and delete any pieces you don't want to cut.
  10. Suggestions Have a need for some ideas...............................

    Large paneled print, like a wall wrap. I'm afraid that's the only option if you can't attach one single fastener. Use cheap removable vinyl. Yeah, they'll have to redo it every time they bring a new trailer. More repeat business!
  11. Question Labels for spice bottles

    Are you not a sign shop? No printer or cutter?
  12. Financing needed for bucket truck

    Geneva Capital is also big in the sign world. www.gogc.com
  13. 2020 Ford Super Duty on tailgate

    Do you mean cutting inset letters to fit inside? I would just order them online. Too much hassle getting the sizing right. Someone else already did the hard part.
  14. Sign company or wana be TV stars?

    Yes they are notorious for being the "electrical sign Nazi's". If you even showed a picture of an electrical sign on your website and you weren't a licensed electrician, they would blast you for it. They were a-holes for some time about it.
  15. Best vinyl for temporary museum wall wraps.

    I'm getting it less than $250. What exactly is better about yours? If it's better and 50' longer, I'd be willing to try it. PM me some info and I'll try to remember to set up an account and order a roll.
  16. Sign company or wana be TV stars?

    Ugh....Signs Manufacturing?
  17. Anyone know which manufacturer uses this logo? $20 bucks to the first person

    I need an eye exam. First look I thought this was someone's fresh tattoo on their arm, covered with saran wrap.:omg:
  18. Can’t get solid colors

    Also need to know how many passes? I zoomed in on a photo and it looks like you printed on canvas...pretty strange pattern. I'm gonna suggest another vinyl? Looks like maybe that's a bad roll.
  19. Best vinyl for temporary museum wall wraps.

    I've seen a sample of that. It is practically the same as GF 226 (probably THE same sold in a Mactac box) :-)
  20. Best vinyl for temporary museum wall wraps.

    I'm printing a wall wrap right now. I use mostly General Formulations 226. Have had great luck with it so far. Is a little stiffer so installing, even with one person, is pretty easy. No stretching and the finish is fairly matte.
