  1. Photoshop file too LARGE

    Banners will print fine down to 125 dpi (that's what I design banners & digital prints over 2'x2' at anymore), the inkjets seem to do a great job of taking care of the rest. Layer styles/effects take upa lot of space also; especially at high resolutions.
  2. SP-300 Grinding Noise

    I used the 3-in-1 & rolled the carriage back & forth manually many times (left-right-left-right) and the sound quieted down. Probably still needs new bearings in the future, but killed the sound & fixed the errors.
  3. Cleaning Encoder Sensor on SP540V

    Those cans of compressed air also work nicely; and you don't have to remove/reinstall the sensor.
  4. Print and Cut Phototex

    I hear that with any solvent ink, the drytime is cut down by pointing a fan at the output of the printer while printing. This may help cutdown dry time for you on phototex also?
  5. Movable Outdoor Sign for back of truck

    Anything large need to be secure... so if he wants something large, it needs to be mounted well. Something smaller would be more portable; but can anyone see it from the highway? Maybe a larger sign installed further back (on his property) or as stated; wrap a truck or box truck for a larger...
  6. Who sells ATV templates?

    ok, the customer wants a price & the ATV is far away... that's the reason for the request. I'll see if they can bring it by the shop sometime if they're serious about proceeding.
  7. Who sells ATV templates?

    thanks for the tips, bigprinter!
  8. Who sells ATV templates?

    I need a template for a Kubota RTV1100 vehicle. The template manufacturers I use do not have them, as they're not a car/truck. I am NOT asking for someone to supply me with one, but for someone who has wrapped one before to provide me a link to where I can purchase one.
  9. simple color problem

    Are there spot colors in use? (spot colors + transparency don't mix well)
  10. Photoshop Help!!!!

    Most of our digital prints are done in PS; 100 DPI works fine for anything as large as a yard sign or bigger (even lower DPI will be fine). I saev the original editable PSD file, then flatten and save a JPEG/TIFF that I place in the VW que. For contours I place the JPEG in Illustrator & draw the...
  11. Illustrator file size gets too big!

    You need to get InDesign & learn it; Illustrator is NOT made for this kind of work. This is why Adobe sells the "creative suite" of programs; each have their own specific niche in the design field. A menu you would edit the photos in photoshop, edit the logo/vectors in Illustrator, and set all...
  12. Shortcut for cents symbol on a pc?

    Glyphs Pallette in everything (besides photoshop?!?!?!) has all the charactors available in the font currently in use.
  13. Used sign cabinets

    actually, craigslist business section seems to have a few most of the time. what CAN'T you buy on CL?
  14. Channel Letters where to get them

    We use Gemini Letters.
  15. Calling all gardeners....WHAT IS THIS ??

    Looks more like Squash to me, but reasonably it's probably pumpkin since you had a couple near there that could have dropped seeds.
  16. Wednesday Coro-Plane update. She's In!!

    I would be afraid of the motor melting close-by coro more than anything, but I'm sure you're aware of that. How did you overcome that?
  17. tool for cutting backing paper off in the middle...

    We use an envelope opener/slitter, should be available at just about any store. Always be careful doign this though.
  18. Air Bubbles

    On larger areas of vinyl (more prone to bubbles) I still like to use application fluid just so that I don't have to poke bubbles. And yes, a new squeege sometimes makes a world of difference.
  19. heat transfer logo for shirts

    closer pic please?
  20. 53' Trailer Wrap

    Their site sucks, but the product is essentially a huge banner that's velcroed to tracks on the side; but more complicated. The "4 hour" I believe is the install time for both sides. They have two 16' wide printers running side by side almost continuously... must be doing something right.
