transparent vinyl with a "double strike" print.

Vector art gets exported as eps UNLESS gradients or pantones are used, then it's pdf. If design is raster, then export as rgb tif with LZW Compression NOT jpg or png.

We use the same setup but different work flow. We set up all our prints and cuts within Corel. When we go to cut we pull up the corel file and use the FineCut plugin to plot. Same if using illustrator too. It's a lot easier to troubleshoot that way too. 1 layer for design, 1 layer for reg marks...

hmmmm...degree? Adobe?

We used to use Rasterlink with our Mimaki. But only used it for managing prints. All cuts were done within Corel using FineCut plugin. We now have an HP and Flexi. But still only use Flexi to manage prints. All plots are still done within Corel using the FineCut plugin.

p.s. Thank you for your service and congratulations from an AF graphic design retiree.

splice in extra material then measure out and ink in your missing reg marks. How would you not have the file saved? We use a different workflow. All our cuts/reg marks and such are created in Corel and saved with the file. We don't use the RIP to set up any cuts. We only use Flexi Production...

ok, I understand "rag right" now. Thanks all.

I'd post the non-vector pdf here but it's really a pia to do so. p.s. I've forgotten my dropbox password. Calls for Helvetica but the image to the right doesn't use helvetica. Says black but shows red. At one point it mentions 12.5" LH. Why not design the sign at full scale first then right...

I was given this guideline to make a new sign. Not sure if it's going to be legible enough here but... A whole lotta wrongs going on here! Anyone else see them?!

rag right?

Yes we use the Gripster too. Not bad but still rolls too much for me. I suppose I could find an oblong washer to replace the hex one.

Customer tells me they're going to send a pdf file for print. After working out the type of substrate I ask "what size would you like it to be". Customer's reply "it's already sized" hmmmm....I will ask again

So some yahoo doesn't pick/peel off the outside one!

I feel your pain. We get bad logos all the time and even after contacted the company directly they still give me bad art files. I'm talking about ones that I can't find on Brands Of The World or in a pdf somewhere. I've even had conversations with the United States Air Force Heraldry office for...

We just did some "double-sided" decals for the same purpose i.e. apply to inside of glass yet visible from inside and outside. 1. Print "mirror image" to clear vinyl 2. Laminate it with a white vinyl that also has white 3. Print a separate non-mirrored one on regular white vinyl 4. Apply #3 to...

We make all our own tiles in corel much the same manner as described above with illustrator. Oversized and overlapping Powerclips.

I don't get it. What's the funny part?

Wait...Did you USED to work here? lol
