I usually print a wireframe if an object is white so I know where to trim to (for magnets, banners, etc.). Now I can't seem to print wireframe without it printing the line about an inch thick. Making the box transparent and adding a .010 stroke fixes it, but still, that's weird. A couple days...

That just happened yesterday, 50mph winds. I live down that road. It was a pretty rusted sign.

I'm pretty sure 7.5 profiles don't work with 10, so it couldn't be that (we upgraded from 7.6 to 10). And as far as I know, most profiles are from version 8 anyway. The profile I'm using is for 3MIJ180.

I had to export to 7.5 and open in an older version. Okay, but now I tried a different job in Flexi 10.5, another 1" color swatch, AND IT PRINTED 8.5"!!!!!! WHAT!??

I sent some 2" color swatches and they print at 1". Weird. Restarted, got them to print at 2". Sent my job at 50.5" wide...it started printing at 7.25" wide! It's listed correct in the production manager, it's just outputting a baby version. Am I missing something? Job due tomorrow of course.

Flexi 7.6 and 10.5 are in separate directories in the Program Files folder.

Large files (around 300MB) will make Flexi 10.5 freeze up while "exporting to pdf" after I hit send. I can print the same file in 7.6 no problem. Ideas? Printing large files in 7.6 kind of defeats the purpose of upgrading. Computer: XP SP3 Pentium D 2.80 GHz, 3GB RAM, Radeon x600 256MB Or is...

I like #1. I kind of like #2 except the shadow is a bit too dark and distracts.

In Flexi, Fill/Stroke Editor. There's a check box for "Transform" on the Stroke tab. Make sure it's checked. Or check it off and back on again to be safe in case some are and some aren't.

Sweet! Thanks for the link and how-to! Now I just have to remember which other fonts were doing this...

@ Fred: I drag all of them and it goes through the process of installing 1, 2, then 3. And when I re-drag it says they're already installed. @Oldgoat: Nope, I've checked that too.

This is happening here at work on Flexi10 and at home in CS5 with a few free fonts. I'll drag & drop a font, "Duke" from Lost Type, which has a beveled font file, a filled font file and a shadow font file and it will only show and let me use one. If I try to drag & drop one of the files I...

We had Velcro and they said it fell off the glass. And I'm thinking if we use something heavy duty like Dual Lock or even just coat the back with Velcro, those letter are going to snap in half. And from the looks of it, they already have. I saw packaging tape on the back of a couple letters.

Anybody have a solution for mounting large (over 5' tall) routed 1" Gatorfoam letters (in a condensed font) on glass panels that must be removable to gain access to lighting behind the glass? There are 4 glass panels and the letters span multiple panels.

I found this thread after I got into a discussion with one of our salespeople regarding a less serious issue than the OP's, but similar in principle. I guess more of a "they paid for the sign design so why shouldn't they get the art on disk" kind of issue. Client's friend does business cards...

Yep. Perspective doesn't quite match up.

I did this over the weekend for my church (I'm on the marketing committee for the event). Before I took over the project the flyer was a Word file with hot dog, watermelon, etc. clipart. I like how it turned out.

You're mixing Marvin the Martian with the one from the Flintstones.
