    For everyone who blames the government if their premiums went up... Why not blame your insurance company? Seriously. They are making MORE money now, they love the fact that they have a product that sells itself. The only reason they raised premiums is because there was no law to stop them from...
  2. Cut Letters look crooked on Van Contour HELP

    We were watching a youtube video once about how to put a vinyl graphic on the rear window of a truck. The person in the video use a freaking LEVEL on it. Because, you know, every time you park your car, an auto-lever springs into action... adjusting the inflation of all 4 tires until some...
  3. Cast Hell

    We have used Avery HP700 Series Calendered vinyls for MANY outdoor signs, and have never had a problem with cracking, shrinking, or fading. There is no reason to use cast when the sign is flat.

  4. Opening a PDF that was generator in InDesign / Corel X5

    I don't have illustrator on this computer, and I'm really excellent with Corel. This is a flyer job that I'm sending out to a trade printer, and I know how to set up the files in Corel, not so much in Illustrator. I was hoping there was a something else I could that would make it work, but I...
  5. Opening a PDF that was generator in InDesign / Corel X5

    I can't either. I was hoping for a quicker solution to opening it up in Illustrator... I have to switch computers to do that, which is why its annoying. But ohwell.
  6. Opening a PDF that was generator in InDesign / Corel X5

    I have Corel X5, and we always have problems importing or opening PDFs that were originally designed in Adobe InDesign CS5. I right-click on the downloaded file, and "open with CorelDraw." This particular file has editable fields and multiple pages. When I try to open the entire file, a...
  7. Hey Fellers and Montroy.

    So, let them buy it, and charge extra for an install. You really have to, since if there is a problem or a mistake, you'll end up eating it. Also, part of any business's profit is mark-up, so if you would typically charge $75 hr for an install, make it $110 an hour. Also, since its not your...

  9. not doing it for nothing

    Maybe the other guy's quote was for just one door? For a simple door lettering, we might be a little less, but it sounds like you are right where you should be.
  10. Gilding: NEWBIE

    Is Kaolin USP the same thing as Kaolin Clay ? If I search for Kaolin USP, i get much more expensive results. I'd like to try this technique for a large gold leaf sign we are working on. If not, do you know where I can order it from
  11. Only buy HP Latex inks from dealer who sold you machine?

    I think I signed a paper stating we would only purchase OEM Mimaki inks from the dealer of that machine in order to extend the warranty or something. What REALLY grinds my gears is when that dealer sends out emails touting how superior and cost-saving their 3rd party inks are, knowing...

  15. What programs to use.

    We pretty much only use CorelDraw. We are able to cut directly from Corel to our Graphtec, and export to Rasterlink to print (and I guess cut, too) on our Mimaki. The Graphtec is directly connected to one computer, and the other computers are networked to it. A while ago someone asked me how...
