  1. Artwork Proofing Software

    Let's see if I have this right: You want to send a client an image of the work you propose along with some text, either boilerplate or job specific, and you're searching for some automated solution? Is that about right? If so, you and everyone else responding with any solution other than just...
  2. VP540 - Contour Cut Head Depth

    Try removing any dust covers and blow out all the accumulated dust and crud from the tool carriage. Pay special attention th the tool up/down mechanism. It doesn't take much to interfere with the blade holder positioning mechanism[s].
  3. Price check

    No, it looks clumsy. Now for part two of the lesson; this particular type face is extremely hard to use in all upper case. It has large serifs and extreme contest between thick and thin. This does not make for an easily readable upper case. By the bye, when I refer to 'type body' I'm talking...
  4. remove old letters & install new- questions

    Once you get it off [the fishing line/guitar string [E above B]/floss is the way to go] then use a paint scraper. The kind that uses a single edged razor blade, to remove the residue. Before you us it round the corners of the razor blade slightly with a fine file. It's the edge digging in that...
  5. Price check

    Rather dubious typography. By my count you've violated the type body eight times in 'FAIRVIEW FAIRWAYS'. Unless your making some sort of artistic statement, typically done with initials, rarely with actual text, usually in a logo or similar design, you do not violate a character's type body...
  6. Presidential debate...let's hear your thoughts

    'Slimy crook'? Based on what? Obeying the tax codes and laws is cheating? And 'fair share', just what might that be, how is that determined, and who gets to make the determination? Perhaps you figure that in any given year anyone who grossed more than you and payed less federal income tax...
  7. A thing that pi**es me off... a little bit

    One does not laminate prints in order to make it easier for you to remove them.
  8. Presidential debate...let's hear your thoughts

    What evidence would you accept? A written note stating this intention? Not likely to exist. Nonetheless the fact the this server, which provided no function not provided by a government facility, was concealed from any FOIA requests is prima facie evidence that this was at least part of the...
  9. Presidential debate...let's hear your thoughts

    Really? Better the world? Just how would the Clinton bint go about bettering the word? Be specific. Use simple declarative sentences. 'Selfish capitalist'? Sport, self-interest is pretty much all there is. It gets rationalized into all sorts of nonsense the the terminally ignorant, but that...

    Ah Chicago, wellspring of contentment, peace, law and order... How many people violently sucked the pipe in your fair city during the reign of your crown prince Obama?3,000, 4,000, ors somewhere in between? The term 'racism' gets tossed around a lot. What, exaclty, do you mean when you use...
  11. Presidential debate...let's hear your thoughts

    Cart before the horse. The thing you call the 'middle class' is a consequence of the industrial revolution. That being the mass production of like products. This era is now waning and being replaced by the mass production of custom goods made possible mostly because of digital technology...
  12. Presidential debate...let's hear your thoughts

    Are you being deliberately obtuse? Something must be produced to create wealth. Something which heretofore did not exist. Income can be produced by knocking over a gas station. Income has little to nothing to do with wealth.

    As my old philosophy mentor was wont to say when confronted by tortured reasoning of this caliber; "Don't be an a$$." It works this way: Since the invention of proper harness for draft animals ~10,000 years past, people could produce more than they could consume. Hence a surplus. Hence...

    Wealth is created by production. Read it, know it, be it. There is no other way. Hedge fund managers et. al. can and do make money from production of wealth but, while this or that investment might do so, they create no wealth directly. Playing in a zero sum game and winning is not wealth...
  15. Presidential debate...let's hear your thoughts

    These 'rich elites' to which you refer, just who are these terrible people? I would wager that in your village, it's anyone with a couple of slugs more than you. And this 'fair share'? Just what would that be? How would that be determined? Who would do the determining. In this country to top 1%...
  16. Presidential debate...let's hear your thoughts

    Which way does it trickle? Wealth is created by production. Either digging stuff out of the ground and making something from it or growing stuff. There is no other way yet discovered. Just like government, a service industry produces nothing and thereby creates no wealth. All government jobs...
  17. Presidential debate...let's hear your thoughts

    'Matt Lauer' not 'Lauren'. Regardless, those of you declaring your innate cleanliness and healthy minds by declaring for Gary Johnson, an amiable idiot, or worse, Jill Stein, a boiled out hippie, are the larger fools. One of Donald Trump or Valerie Clinton is going to the the next president...
  18. VENT - Things that annoy you in the print industry.

    Which would move any normal non-yeti human to inquire: Just what in the name of Zeus' butthole is a yeti cup? A cup used by yetis? An award given away by yetis? An award given to yetis? Perhaps for the most climbers consumed in a single season. An award given in memory of some yeti or...
  19. Thinnest, Most Conformable Over-Laminate?

    The thinnest and, concomitantly then most conformable, is liquid laminate. It leaves an ~.001" thick acrylic coating. It's more UV resistant than most common vinyl laminates and will not discolor over time. Liquid laminate is tough but it does not provide the same level of abrasion resistance...
  20. Cut left to right instead of up and down?

    Depends. When you optimize to a certain area, if memory serves 10" is the default, it works just fine until l it latches on to a vector that leaves the 10" area and ends up up in another. Then it proceeds to cut in the new area until leaving uncut vectors in the previous area. It will get back...
