  2. Papyrus be gone

    Could anyone be reasonably expected to resist the urge to see Papyrus in Imax 3D 4k resolution with full surround sound 7.1? I think not. Someone had to ask the art director guy "Hey you want us to use Papyrus for the titles?" "Yep" Boom: 2010 Oscar for "Best Achievement in Art Direction"...
  3. Why would the wiper motor hum but not spin ...

    How well used is the printer? Has the maintenance station ever been replaced? With the motor not turning it could be time for a new one. That error code you put up lists as an error between the main board & the controller board. If you don't have the service guide pm me an email and I can send...
  4. Help with photo printout

    Can you set your view of the photo in AI to "Actual Size" (Ctrl+1) and pan to the guy's face in pixel preview? Post up a screen cap so we can see. The size of the Getty preview is too small to tell if the issue is with the photo. I'm thinking it is the photo with the guy's hand clear and...
  5. Tips on how to sell to an un-decicive client?

    If all else fails. take a hand gun with a laser sight and use it as a pointer during the presentation of your layouts. Worked for Homeland Security in NY, should close the deal fairly quickly. wayne k guam usa
  6. Transferring Stickers from one release paper to another

    I think your best bet would be to exchange the backers before you cut the graphics. Set up your laminator with the branded liner in place of the laminate. The rollers would set the new liner better than anything you could do by hand. Crank a roll through and then plot out the graphics. If...
  7. Transferring Stickers from one release paper to another

    Could you run the rolls backer side up through the printer to print the logo then load them into the plotter? If you can't do it in house you might be able to find someone with a water based printer that could do it. If the decals are small enough you could gang them into sheets small enough...
  8. Light Pole Banner Questions

    You'll be fine with the glue. Tip to speed up working with the glue: Don't brush it out of the can with the applicator it comes with - takes forever and is never smooth. Get a squeeze bottle and a plastic spreader. We use those hard yellow blocks and cut down one edge to the size needed for...
  9. Light Pole Banner Questions

    Nate, the ink does effect the bond with the HH66. My note on leaving the seams unprinted was not very clear. We found this out with a parking lot set of pole banners that had half done with a solid orange background and the second half done reversed out (orange logo on a white background) hung...

  12. Software question

    With that CorelDraw would most likely be a good option. It does not cost much and is fairly easy to learn. You would be able to build your bridges to hold the centers of existing fonts and export them as eps files into your cutting program or even save them as fonts with bridges built in...
  13. Software question

    What is the issue you are having with the mylar? Is it the designing of the stencil or the actual plotting of the design? If you can cut vinyl you should be able to cut mylar unless your cutter can't do it and software will not fix that. Hard to recommend a fix without knowing what is not...

  19. tips for removing frosted glass films

    This is from the tinting world - to remove rear window tint while trying to save the painted on defogger lines. We use a strong ammonia solution & cut trash bags to help soften things up. What makes this clip even more informative (& entertaining) is turning on the "auto closed...
