    It's some type of plaza copy I think. Closest I could get was playwright.
  2. Font help please?

    Hi I've got the main one here as Helvetica Compressed, but the tagline font I can't seem to find. Any guesses would be appreciated thanks
  3. Color lift to transfer paper?

    I had some decals printed on a gerber on clear scotchcal 220. They were printed silver and black. I'm masking them and I noticed that the color lifts on to the transfer paper when removed. I'm guess a small amount is normal, right? Does more come off if the transfer is on for a long time. thanks
  4. Proper vinyl for drywall?

    good point, thanks. I'm planning on using paintmask now and just painting them to avoid any peeling issues. Then we're not limited to vinyl colors as well.

    is that for printing? I'm only doing these cut vinyl.
  6. Proper vinyl for drywall?

    I have a few logos to put up in a boardroom and retail store. I've been reading about different vinyls peeling and falling off painted drywall. These will be cut vinyl not printed and latex paint is typical. I use Mactac 9800 primarily. Will that work or is there always a risk of vinyl peeling...
  7. Inkscape

    I guess there are/were some known issues with the bamboo tablets. Seems like it cleared up somewhat after a restart. The mouse doesn't track right on the screen visually.
  8. Inkscape

    Looks promising, I like the way the vectors can be manipulated together. But first problem is it doesn't like my tablet. Anyone else have tablet issues?
  9. Trouble finding classic automobile vectors

    here's one template/cartoon style vector from photo. this one was for myself but I'd like to do more of these. I usually print out the picture and sketch over it to customize it and pick out the shapes.
  10. Graphixcalc

    I had a few glitches with it working in openoffice. There are a few formulas that don't translate properly in openoffice. They can be fixed but it's on my other computer so I forget specifically which ones the were.
  11. Import Vector art to Photoshop

    I can't figure out why people think you can't vector in photoshop. I must be a little backwards, I mostly use Photoshop for vectorizing artwork. I find the nodes and pen tools to be a bit smoother to work with than in illy. If theres a bunch of text and layout then I always use illy but if I'm...

    hmm, nothing.
  13. Font ID please

    I can usually find them on on identifont, but not this one. Thanks in advance!
  14. Wacom Intuos3 Tablet feedback

    I tried one of the cheaper brands,it was at least 6x8 or bigger. It was terrible. I took it back and got a 4x6 wacom bamboo. I like the smaller one better for maneuvering around the screen. With the mouse on the tablet you can pick it up and move like a normal mouse. When you have the pen you...
  15. SC-500 buying tips

    I checked, it's using the MAX inks. But somehow he bumped the price up to $7000 figuring we're overeager. now it's easier to say no.
  16. SC-500 buying tips

    yeah, apparently not too quick of a printer. We're jobbing out our digital prints to this machine anyway so I guess the price is the main factor.
  17. SC-500 buying tips

    Hi, I'm looking at buying a used Roland SC-500. It doesn't have the heater upgrade installed. I've learned here that is quite important. It's currently running and using eco-sol inks. It had new heads last year. They're asking $6000(cad) for it. Any advice on that price or any quirks to look...

  19. can I varnish over vinyl lettering and which vinyl would be best?

    it won't matter what you spray on it, as soon as the vinyl slides on concrete or a rail it's going to tear. It's definitely not worth the extra time for spraying and drying if he's in a rush.
