  1. Question So, how many..........................

    I watched about 20min. Felt guilty though. Peaceful protesting is fine unless you hurt others in doing so. That's exactly what's happening with the kneeling. I will never buy tickets, clothing, or any other memorabilia of any kind. Not only do I stand but as a retired veteran I render the...
  2. Design question

    And as designed in CorelDRAW and saved as a custom spray. Will spray as many stars as you want whenever needed in any file.
  3. Design question

    Very easy to do in CorelDRAW. Once made you can add it as a brush object whereby allowing to click and drop in as needed.

  5. Question How much vinyl is left on that roll?

    Yep, that's what our print tech does.
  6. Question How much vinyl is left on that roll?

    I, too, had a spreadsheet calculator to do this but never really tested it. π*circumference/roll diameter bla bla, not in that order but something like that.
  7. Banner Boxes / Folding

    Please don't fold banners. Why would anybody fold a banner! Unless of course it's a fabric banner. We have customers bring us folded banners and want the date or text changed. We have to use clamps to stretch it out.
  8. Rant RRRRRRRRRR...New sign request with attachment

    Thanks Gino. I needed that.
  9. Rant RRRRRRRRRR...New sign request with attachment

    Yes, I'm having a bad day. Having to pick the slack. If we don't point these things out to any newbies they will keep on designing crap that I have to fix. Then the next time they'll expect it sooner and sooner and then....
  10. Rant RRRRRRRRRR...New sign request with attachment

    Wow, did you really think I am not capable of "moving on". Of course there'll be an art fee. I was just trying to point out how frustrating it is to get requests like this.
  11. Rant RRRRRRRRRR...New sign request with attachment

    Got a sign request for a 36in x 24in real estate coro. Even supplied the file. TOO BAD IT'S A FLATTENED TIFF THAT'S 24 x 32 AND 600DP = 1.28GBI!!! wth you freakin idiot. "Oh and can you add these elements too."
  12. Question General Design & Wraps

    We design wraps all the time but we don't like using templates. Templates will get you in the ballpark but 9 times out of 10 when the vehicle shows up it has body molding where the template didn't show. You have to have the vehicle in for surveying. Straight on photos of all sides, front and...
  13. Question CG-160FXII trouble plotting reflective on long runs

    Finally got it! Not really sure what the fix was though. One pinch roller was a little close to a reg mark. Adjusted first read was good but failed after second read. Align a few more times and finally took. Hmm 10 minutes before closing and customer (sheriff dept) is picking up in the morning...
  14. Question CG-160FXII trouble plotting reflective on long runs

    Thanks. We did try all rollers at the strong setting. We had the media on a roll on input but now trying to baby it in and out. Cleaned the camera eye that reads but still no help. Now reads the first 3 reg marks then appears to read the last one but errors out once it gets back to home.
  15. Question CG-160FXII trouble plotting reflective on long runs

    We're using a Mimaki CG-160FXII trying to plot a 52in x 140in run of printed and laminated reflective vinyl. Line up the reg marks using the cutting blade as a guide to get as accurate as possible.The material walks enough to completely miss the second reading. Cleaned the pinch rollers, all 4...

    Maybe a media feed issue?
  17. Need Help When dealing with a vector file that is missing files and fonts...

    In my experience illustrator users don't care to take the time to provide a "proper" universal file.They assume everyone uses illustrator. I can tell right away when an eps or pdf file came from adobe.If I get a file that has fonts missing then it wasn't done properly. All fonts should be...
  18. An outline problem in Flexi (or Corel)

    Not sure what that is but I bet Corel has an equivalent. "Break Apart" might be what you're referring to. In Corel ctrl+k is break apart.
  19. An outline problem in Flexi (or Corel)

    Outlines are never a good idea in any program. In corel it's better to use contour instead.
