  1. Flexi 12 Graduate Color Issue

    When you created your gradient did you specify the gradient to be in CMYK.? You do this by selecting the four CMYK dots on the Fill and Stroke dialog instead of the three RGB dots. Kind of obscure but important. Next what is your gradient rendering intent? You set this in Production manager...
  2. Can You Wrap A Vehicle's Emblem?

    Remove it, wrap it, and re-install it. It's just held on with VHB tape. Or remove the Ford badge, make a new one and dome it. That's what I did on the tailgate of my F250. The dome treatment doesn't attain the same height as the Ford badge but nothing to compare who's going to know?
  3. Sponge For The Vj1204 Printer

    The answer to your questions are...you're screwed. You cannot buy just the sponge and, as far as I know, there is no part from any other machine that will work. As I said, you're screwed.You have to buy the plastic holder to get the sponge. ~$60.00 US. I've got two of them that I swap whenever...
  4. Can Someone Pleas Explain The Banner Scam?

    Ah, I get it. Seems like a lot of bother for not a whole hell of a lot of money. Moreover why would any sane person operate what amounts to a check cashing service for some anonymous being at the other end of an unsolicited email. Not in this shop. If some client wants me to pay his shipping...
  5. Roland Cartrides Not Empty

  8. Question Should I Dare Ask?

  9. Registration Marks

    Offend me? Don't flatter yourself. Especially with a patronizing apology. The terms 'LR', 'BL', while it's obvious what they mean, is not particularly common usage. "recognize 4" is ambiguous. 4 what? Moreover, civilized folk spell numbers used in this context. The phrase is 'cutting [or...

  11. Question Should I Dare Ask?

    So then if you hired Vlad the Impaler you'd not tolerate anyone pointing out that your employee is somewhat less than a nice guy? Or, if you hire an overly defensive inept dofus to rebop a web site you'd be somewhat less than forbearing of anyone taking note of this? Which is more important to...

  17. Need Help Stencil Lettering On Glass

    Sad that none of these people every learned how to use a brush. If they had, they'd mark a couple of lines, ghost in the copy to get the spacing, step up to the glass with palette and brush, and letter the damn thing. It would be done faster than you could unlimber your roll of paint mask or...
