  1. signlab 8 saves files in the wrong directory...sort of

    Good...I am not going crazy then :banghead:
  2. signlab 8 saves files in the wrong directory...sort of

    I have sat here perplexed at times trying to locate files that I absolutely know I have, and saved at the time of making them, but mysteriously they can't be found..... I think I have figured out why and how this is occuring. My old Signlab 5 never did this and I have never seen it happen...
  3. Worst fonts ever!

    OK, here is how I generally see Arial....seems to be used by someone new in this business who can't scroll down farther than an inch before he finds a font..... Look at the beautiful way they laid this out and notice the truly incredible bumper graphic. The side of the truck looked like...
  4. Worst fonts ever!

    Arial sickens me, especially the horrible kerning that no one ever corrects

  6. What kind of terms do you have with your vendors?

    I usually get my 30 days, then we put it on the rewards card extending my terms for another 2 or 3 weeks depending on the billing schedule.
  7. Decolit quality

    I was using decolite blockout but the cost per banner was a bit over whelming. I think the skunky smell may be the anti curl chemical and if that is what it is then you will also have issues with the tape from the banner stand sticking long term to the material. I still use the blockout...
  8. 2 thumbs up for Summa technical support

    I was amazed yesterday when I attempted to call Summa for support on a 5 year old opus cutter. I called and within 3 rings it was actually answered by a human voice who immediately set out to help me. My problem is that lately my opus seems to be having issues with reading the registration...

  11. what should I do about this?

    I made a sign for a customer a few months back... It was done on a brushed aluminum alupanel and was to be mounted on an inner wall in the foyer of their building. It was not even that big, maybe 15" x 20". We put it up using double sided foam tape from a sign supplier on a painted wall. I...

  14. strange emails today

    I received 2 emails today and one wanted a quote to remove all the signs from his building somewhere in Arizona!!! I am in Canada, so I quoted him $50,000. seems like a deal for me. Then right after that email I get another from some guy who thinks I am Doug and that I have to email him...
  15. Summa d-140 temper mental!!!

    If it did it all the time I would make a change...but this is a daily thing...it just picks a day to give me trouble.... Monday it will run the same files like normal. I have now rebooted the computer and the plotter a second time and about to send the cut once again..... Oh what now? The...
  16. Summa d-140 temper mental!!!

    Every job today I have attempted to cut using the opus has resulted in pure frustration. Most days the plotter runs fine, but then there are days like today that no matter what goes in or no matter how long it has been sitting laminated, the SOB just refuses to see the registration marks. I...
  17. Original Gerber Edge and 750 Cutter

    That was a great deal you got. That machine can make you plenty of Dough!!
  18. my vision

    I sometimes suffer from my vision being blurry or blurry in an area that I am not directly looking at. It comes and goes. I went to an eye doctor and was told I had had dry lids and she gave me these moist towelettes that you rub on your eyeball. They are painless and can be bought in any...
  19. any Signlab 8 users out here?

    I finally figured it out...it seems the original file came from a pdf or eps from a different software and something was in the file which could not be seen in wire frame but you knew it was there because the file would open and expand way out to where there were no visible graphics.... What...
