It's not hard to do. Create a wire frame rectangle that complete surrounds whatever it is you're printing and cutting. Make this rectangle at least 1/2" or so larger all around than the print and/or cut path. Do yourself a favor and make the dimensions of this rectangle an integer number of...

"TURN ALL PROFILES OFF" being a functional identity with a rendering intent of "No Color Correction'. A notion previously recommended and subsequently mocked by the button men from the local chapter of the profile nostra.

There are two methods currently in vogue with blade cutters; drag knife and tangential. Regardless of method, in order to cut media the cutting edge of the blade must always be facing the cut. When you slice a tomato, the cutting edge of your knife faces the cut. Likewise for cutting anything...

Just for the hell of it try this... Get the yellow piece looking the way you want it, convert it to a 150ppi RGB bitmap and print that at 720 dpi with a 'Perceptual' rendering intent and a high order dither algorithm. See what you get. Then print a few blended rectangle pairs with one...

Is it that you can't figure out how to export a jpg or is it that you merely don't happen to like how the Great White Fathers at Corel implemented the procedure in X6? If the former, which part of File->Export seems to confound you? If the latter, deal with it. Note that there is a bug...

'Fernicola' is not a word that a lot of people have ever experienced. That being the case, putting it in a script, especially that fat thing with the ugly 'r', is merely making it more illegible and incomprehensible than it already is. People seldom actual read words, they see them and attach...

I'm not sure just which version of Excel you're running but I'll assume it's 2007 or better... On the 'Developer' tab select 'Macros'. A dialog will appear showing the names of any existing macros. Enter 'merge_text' in the 'Macro Name:' text box and click 'Create'. You will be taken to the...

Enter the following code EXACTLY as a macro, select the range of cells you want to merge, and invoke this macro. The range you selected will be replaced by a single column of merged data. Sub merge_text() With Selection hold = .Value .ClearContents Set mrange = .Range("A1:A" &...

Not so. Do you actually know what a dither algorithm is? You can change dither algorithms on any profile at any time. Whether to do so or not depends on a number of things. If you're a card carrying profilista then the dither algorithm can be part and parcel of your latest profile and the...

Use brick mold[ing]. Use the white primed finger joint material. It's just about the perfect size and shape, comes in lengths up to 16', relatively cheap and it's hell for sturdy. You'll seldom if ever need center braces.. Cut the corners with a power miter, put a bit of Tite Bond on one side...

Once you've done a few gallery wraps it becomes quite simple and only takes a couple of minutes. Assuming you have an air stapler [Harbor Freight, about $35.00], a pair of stretcher pliers [arts and crafts store, about $25.00], and a framing square. After you have a few gallery wraps under your...

T-Nuts Knowing the nomenclature is half of all wisdom and all of not appearing a fool.

Right up there with morons who festoon their working spaces with nonsensical motivational mottoes. And worse, that they think they actually mean something. They do not. Quiet competence trumps motivational bull$hit every time.

The weight of banner material, 10oz, 13oz, 18oz, etc. merely indicates what a square yard of the media weighs. It says nothing about the strength of that media. One fallaciously might infer that the heavier the media the stronger it might be. A common misunderstanding subscribed to by many...

Racist? Here's a newsflash sport; there's only one race, human. The term 'racist' in all of its forms and derivatives is a meaningless term and a feeble reed stored in the quivers of microcephalics, such as you give every appearance of being. A childish rhetorical device to be drawn when...

What he said. Certification, by whatever name you want to call it, does nothing more than place an arbitrary apparatus in some degree of control over any endeavor seeking to be 'certified'. Whatever that might mean. There already exists a plethora of semi-literate functionaries to whom I must...

Forstner bits if the hole is 1/4" or more, they don't come any smaller. Failing that a brad point bit. Use a drill press if at all possible, especially with the Forstner bits. With either of these bit styles in a drill press or with a steady hand and a drill held with the bit completely...

It looks very much like a circus clown threw up.

I imagine if you ate a couple of rolls of vinyl it might not agree with you but merely being around it and, gasp, handling it might have some micro, more likely nano, effect .If any at all. Always remember that any time removed from your life by dealing with vinyl, or anything else for that...

Political? Are you unhinged? The point, at least one of them, which seems to elude you, is that each and every human being is responsible for itself, its choices, and its own condition. You are exactly what you have chosen to be. What you are is the sum total of all of the choices you have...
