We use alcohol on rigid media only. Rolled media is fed out about 3ft before printing anyway so any grime is passed.

put pre-mask over it then make a rubbing, take the premask off then apply to a flat board (pvc) and scan that in and redraw? or take a good photo and retrace

could it be a media feed issue? Sometime my first reg marks out are visible then the last ones will be cut off.

What file format? Hopefully not a vector pdf.

I agree on this one. Tearing them out will create enough of a jagged edge to catch in the wind.

On longer runs we tape onto the take-up (two person task). Shorter runs we just have a person to hold onto it until it's done.

Yeah, you're dead on. That's why I quit using that method. I could, however, alter the macro to convert selected to png then place on the proof template and make the pdf from that and also skip the password protection. I get logos using the same method too.

You can do this in Corel the same as others have suggested. I used a pre-designed "proof template". I created a macro to take my selection and with one icon click it would drop it onto my template. It would then automatically fill in the name of the file, the current date, and clients name. Then...

I've been trying for years to find a solution similar to the cutter mentioned above. Works great if you have no print mounted to the magnetic. Once you apply a printed sheet of 30 magnets that need to be individually cut you have no way of lining up the circle cutter on center. See my proposed...

hmmmm. Maybe you got the wrong site. :Big Laugh Welcome from Niceville, Zak

We use three methods. 1. direct print = cost A 2. print to decal then apply to coro = cost B 3. send out for screen print we many customers who have seen the quality difference and insist only decal prints to coro. Usually not more than 10 at a time though. Same with decal prints to pvc.

got it. What a pia for such a simple task. Corel has it built in already as with a whole lot of other things.

getting closer. I should be left with two shapes after playing the action. The original shape and the newly created shape with the red stroke and no fill. All I get now is the red stroke shape. The original gets deleted.

yeah, I'm getting the same message. ▼Create Boundary ______________________ ▼Offset Path Offset: 0 pt Miter Limit: 4 Line Join: Miter ______________________ ▼Swatches Apply Swatch: [None] ______________________ ▼Swatches Apply Swatch: CMYK Red

That's what I'm trying to record. When you create an Offset Path it should be just that, an "unfilled" path. A simple and separate path around the shape with a Stroke only. Action records setting the stroke just fine but will not record a no fill.

yes. Offset Path at with offset at 0. No fill & stroke to red.

Under the Pathfinder Toolbox Unite means to unite two shapes i.e. weld them in corel terms. No option to create a path around the two shapes or even one single shape?

Bear with me here. tried to create a new action. Copy shape, paste in front, remove fill and change stroke color to red. Only thing it recorded was the paste in front and set stroke color. rrrrrr

found the Pathfinder toolbox and "unite" but have not been able to get anything to work. Trying to create a line around the perimeter of a shape without having to copy paste/paste in front then remove the fill. That's a lot of steps.

here's another
