  1. looking for a 100$ bill

    Yup, I think since Version 7 P-shop has an automatic sensor program that can detect if you are trying to scan currency. I believe there is an optical watermark that scanners can detect and then it gives you a warning. Same thing holds true for recent color copiers etc. AFAIK - scanning...
  2. Ohio signmakers?

    Born and raised here in Columbus. I'm a second generation printer, just expanding our biz. into signs. Thought it might be a cleaner job than dealing with all the ink. :biggrin:
  3. upgrading mac G4?

    Yeah, there is really no harm in trying it - and I didn't want to scare anyone away from doing it. Your 867 should see it as long as you're running a version of OS X. If you're running OS 9 it will only see the 128GB regardless. *As a 15 year mac and PC user I can say they both have their...
  4. upgrading mac G4?

    You didn't say which g4 you had, but you may have an issue with that large of a hard drive. At least I should say you might not be able to see the full 200GB of storage. Older G4 systems only recognize 128GB no matter what operating system you are using. I think it was the last of the G4...

  6. Overview Article on CS3

    Well, I'm glad CS3 is finally here. I held off upgrading my CS suite to CS2 just because I didn't see much benefit from doing so. Also, now that CS3 is written to take advantage of the new Intel Macs I'll have to upgrade my DP G5 tower to something newer. Maybe that 24" imac I've been...
  7. Mac Illustrator CS driver for Roland CX-300?

    OK, since no responses to this question - who here is running a Roland cutter using Mac OS X? Are you using Roland's software or something else?
  8. Mac Illustrator CS driver for Roland CX-300?

    Hi guys, just purchased a Roland CX-300 from another member and am in the process of getting it set up. I would like to cut from Illustrator CS, on a Mac G5 using OS 10.3. I found the updater on Roland's site to allow you to do this, however you already have to have the Roland Cutchoice...
  9. viruses,,,true and false

    Oh, and for other Mac users worried about a virus. http://www.clamxav.com/ "Today, the number of viruses actively attacking OS X users is...NONE!"
  10. viruses,,,true and false

    Really!? :rolleyes: He's sure it wasn't just a regular hard drive failure? Did he get confirmation on that from anyone? I think there are a few mac software companies actually offering a reward if anyone can actually prove that one exists in the wild for any version of OS X. *It is...
  11. viruses,,,true and false

    Make sure to set up your A/V software to scan CD's, floppies, thumb drives etc. upon isertion. Many times this is the way people get them. Have your A/V software automatically check for updates daily. Be selective in the websites you visit, and email from an unknown sender. *FWIW - we...

    I own a Mac. What's a virus?:biggrin:
  13. Your Ebay Experience

    Ya' pays your money...ya' takes yur chances. Seriously though, I've bought and sold since 2001. Only a handful of minor problems not worthy of mentioning. Just be careful, research your seller (if you're buying) and make sure to read the fine print.
  14. Photoshop for Brochures

    If you're going to have your brochure professionally printed at a commercial printer, then I would strongly urge you to stick to Quark or InDesign. The others will work, but aren't the best choice based on most printers work-flow.
  15. Another noob from the Buckeye state

    No, they were previously using someone who's vinyl that was removed a lot easier than the current batch they have. Said person retired and they found someone new. They said this stuff was thinner and seemed to rip and tear upon removal vs. the other stuff coming off in much larger pieces...
  16. Another noob from the Buckeye state

    Thanks for the replies so far. Gino, I appreciate your input. I'm financing this myself so initial investment is limited - maybe $5k. I guess I should have stated is it better to buy a used Graphtec or Rolan vs. a new Chinese import? Also, I have over 12 years in graphic design/layout...
  17. Another noob from the Buckeye state

    Well, I see I have a few fellow Ohioans on here. So I know I'm not the first. My family owns a small commercial printing company (near Columbus) and I am looking to get into vinyl graphics and some limited signage/banners as we are currently outsourcing these items. I have some experience...
