  1. trouble client. Wants art files back.

    That's what we did. Copy them from their HD to ours. I suspect this client who actually got the files from a third party designer was probably not nice to them either and now they're not willing to provide the files again.
  2. trouble client. Wants art files back.

    Ha. Same client just called to place an order for two more decals! Same ones as we did last year. We're printing them now!
  3. trouble client. Wants art files back.

    We have a long standing client who has never understood why it takes the amount of time to produce specialty signs. Our turnaround after approval on layout is 3-5 business days. 95% of which is done in-house. This client has a history of showing up an hour before closing and demanding we get the...
  4. Corel Draw Purchase

    X8 is out. And will allow upgrade from any version. You can't buy the upgrade version of X7, won't work from X3. You'd have to by the full vesrion. I have X8 at home and it works great....then again I haven't jumped to win10 yet.

  10. Never done that in all my years......................................

    Hmmm. I once went to shake a gallon can of paint I had been using previously that morning. Uh..forgot to ensure the lid was on tight. I had paint from head toe and had to be at another job in an hour.
  11. Need help finding matching color

    Can't you just print your own vinyl? We find a pantone that's as close as possible then tweak the color values as necessary. Very hard to match paint swatches/chips though.

    Welcome from Niceville, FL
  13. Ever just up and left?

    Join the military and get paid to travel! Free medical and free dental too. Don't let it scare you. I did Air Cargo for a while but didn't like it so retrained into Aircraft Avionics, then they discontinued the aircraft I was assigned to and someone introduced me to graphic design. I had already...

    Correct. To my knowledge flattening has no affect on quality.

    jpg is a bad choice.
  16. Hp latex 360 printer

    Always CMYKcm on all. Not sure of the optimizer setting. I'm not the print tech. I'll have to ask about that. We've cloned many of the profiles and tweaked the clones here and there but still have not seen acceptable color outputs at anything other than 16 pass. Especially if we're trying to...
  17. Vehicle Templates

    We do wraps all the time. Never use templates. Way too many variances with body moldings and such. We require that the vehicle be brought to us for a complete survey. We take photos and several measurements and design to full scale.
  18. Client Provided Files

    Possible the pdf's aren't made correctly. There area lot of settings that need to be set correctly to be be print ready. We've had to revert to using photoshop to open problem pdf's then flatten and save as a hi-res tif.

    This illustration best describes what we're experiencing with the HP360
  20. Flexi 12 to run HP360 Printer?

    WHAT! Have you not read the trail of bad reviews of that printer? Sorry not sure about the Flexi question. I'd prefer not to use that either.
