In your original image the 'o' leans the other way, a mirror image on X, the face is bolder, the final on the 'n's are not quite right, and the serifs are not the same. Other than that, it's fine. Regardless of these discrepancies, to the average eye not in the business it shouldn't make a...

Hand cut. The two 'n's are slightly different. Compare the upper right where the curve straightens to form the leg of the 'n'. The left 'n' is a smooth transition and the right 'n' would appear to have the curve stop and then turn straight leaving just a hint of a spur. As for what typeface...

Note that in the following, these observations and experiences were with 30mil media. With thinner media your mileage may vary. It's no fun to wrangle a roll of this stuff into your printer. It weighs more than a small horse. Or at least it seems that way. The media is way too heavy to feed...

Treat it as if it were merely a sheet of plywood of the same thickness and you'll be fine. Anything that saws wood will saw aluminum laminates. The finish of the cut with any given blade will be pretty much as rough or as smooth as that same cut would have been in wood. Table saws, band saws...

That should be exactly what will happen assuming you used Flexi to make the contour or you created the contour cut path[s], selected them, and set them to be contour cuts.

Move the 'Doherty' to the left a bit such that the incongruous cartoon hand** comes out behind the 'D' and doesn't look like a severed limb. **That element is in a totally different style and finish than everything else. It still looks like clip-art and is mildly discordant.

Don't think about it that way. Your physical being is pretty much wired from birth. Not to say you can't choose build a mighty body or choose to transform yourself into a replica of a concentration camp refugee. Or whatever. But could it be that genetically you're pretty much pre-wired for...

It's HPGL vs. GPGL. Set the right one for your circumstances and this should go away. It's been a few years but what happens is that the serial command stream, which is all in ASCII, somewhere contains a label instruction, LB in HPGL if memory serves, bog knows what in GPGL, and from that...

It looks like one of the praised versions of the design for a plumber in another thread. Same elements, different copy and decorations. As noted in yet another thread, drop shadows on the white surround tend to not only be dubious in that there is no apparent surface upon which to cast the...

How, exactly, does knowing how it works keep it from working? Sounds remarkably like a contradiction.

'Doherty' is too wide for the rest of the design. Perhaps if you made the pale green circle an oval the whole thing wouldn't look as if it's ready to tilt over on its side. Then there's that 'Bob' floating around in top, the only dark green element without an outline. It looks rather orphaned...

While all of the revenge advice dispensed in these waters might be amusing and fun to play out in your mind, keep it right there. In your mind. If you attempt any of that childish nonsense you'll end up either in custody or at the wrong end of a lawsuit. File suit in small claims court. Have...

Hard to read and the ersatz chrome plated bovine isn't doing much for it. I kind of like the cow, I'm not all that fond of the treatment in its white areas. Also, its eye makes it look like it might be the cow from hell. All that and then consider... Getting rid of all of the gradients, all...

When RIPing and printing, grays are just another CMYK value. They are not, repeat not, merely some level of K all by itself. The RIP and/or printer does not recognize a gray tone as such and shut off CMY for that particular tone. That being the case, if the unavoidable, and desirable** by the...

While a close, but not exact, match, LHF Stevens Percepta is the best imitation of hand lettering yet discovered. Anywhere. The minimally imprecise match is more than compensated by the aesthetics of the appearance of hand lettering.

It sounds as if whoever did that bit of software has it wrong. The plotter's axes are as I have described them. Think about it. Given an origin, 0,0, at the bottom right of the media then by universal convention the positive Y axis goes up from the origin and the positive X axis goes right...

I think you have the X and Y axes confused. To the plotter the Y axis is the direction of carriage travel and the X axis is the direction of media feed. The X and Y axes of whatever it is you're cutting might not map into the plotter's if you have rotated the cut at some point in the process...

Guinness on tap. Failing that Negra Modela in bottles. If neither are available then diet coke. All the weird micro-brews and equally weird beers made from or with this and that can be poured right back into the horse.

I like it just fine. It's been thumping away for 4 years now and nary a problem. Irritations from time to time but but nothing that can't be dealt with in a matter of minutes if not seconds. It replaced a 47" Falcon Outdoor that was just too slow and expensive, and temperamental for my tastes...

I'm herding a 48" ValueJet and find myself in need of a roll of 48" banner material. I seldom use 48" media but every now and then I do and I seem to have run out. All of my suppliers deal in 38", 54", and larger, no 48". I know that the evil Sign Warehouse and I'm sure a host of others carry...
