  1. bar code decals

    Corel has a bar code wizard
  2. Question Flexisign file

    - It's not so great for design. Unless they've changed things, though, you can only do one "page" at a time (think Artboards in Illustrator or Pages in Corel). Don't have to use pages in Corel. Don't even have to have a page at all. I use a page set to the size needed, design one then...
  3. CJV30-160 - Cant get printing and cutting

    We use FineCut just for cutting. All designs are done at two workstations using CorelDraw with no FineCut plug-in then sent to a whole separate RIP Station for print. Either as tif, eps or pdf. We use self made macros to set up the registration marks and weed lines The RIP station has a copy of...
  4. Drone/Survey Targets

    I second that idea. Small square of banner material on the backside should do well.
  5. Curious about shop for vehicle wraps

    We have 2 indoor bays/garage space. AC & heated. Otherwise we install in our parking lot i.e. rv's, boats,trailers
  6. Question What's on your desk?

    Proud to say the most important item on my desk is the picture of my wife. Other than that, couple of coffee mugs and typical office crap. Now above my desk hangs a header from the boss/owners 'Cuda. Removed it about 6 years ago to restore the car. Still in his garage to this day.

  9. Need source for Security Labels

    We've been tasked to produce Sequentially numbered Security Labels. We had some old stock laying around but our Edge printer doesn't produce colors to it very well. I tried several different settings and still couldn't get good prints. We outsourced it to our regular vendor who informed us that...
  10. Premask left on vinyl too long - tips/tricks for removal

    Give it a light alcohol spray much the same way as using rapid tac as suggested above . Give it about 10-15 seconds then try and pull off.
  11. Question for you guys that do van full wraps

    Templates are useless to me. We design from actual or sometimes stock photos and rough measurements. If the vehicle to be wrapped isn't available for a proper survey we'll do a rough mock up and let the customer know that we won't print any until the vehicle is in our possession.
  12. Measurement app?

    Cut two magnets at 1" x 12". Make one white and the other black. When you go out to the site either slap the magnet on to the surface and take the photo or tape the magnet on. Use the magnet to scale in your design program of choice.

  15. Blue Crop Marks

    In illy what color formula are the crop marks? Paper is a lot more porous than vinyl so maybe it is a profile problem.
  16. Buffer Overrun flexi8.5

    Not versed much in Flexi design but in Corel I use a "ClearClipboard" macro that is set to automatically clear the clipboard every time a file is closed.Or I can hit the CC macro myself when I feel it has large amount of data. This significantly speeds up the opening process of other files. Also...
  17. Blue Crop Marks

    Did you make the crop marks within Rasterlink? All our crop marks are made within our design program from various workstations throughout the office then sent to the RIP. All our print tech has to do is choose the appropriate profile.
  18. HELP PLEASE!!!

    Plotters see a fill with a stroke/outline as two cuts, one for the fill and one for the outline. Raster image can be cut to shape if set up right. As stated do a quick trace only for the outer boundary and overlay it over the image. Delete any stuff you don't need inside and clean up the nodes...
  19. Rasterlink 6 And Finecut Plugins Coreldraw Issue

    Might look under the Macro Manager. Take a snapshot of it and upload here.
  20. Coreldraw, Finecut Contour?

    Yes, as stated, you have to either break the contour apart or make sure you have the "contour group" selected not just the "control ellipse/curve)". Contours and drop shadows annoyed me so much that I made a macro that would automatically select both no matter which one I click on. i.e. draw a...
