The difference, Clarence Darrow, is that with autos etc, the auto or whatever is explicit security for a note, an actual legal contract. The buyer agreed to the possibility of repossession as part of that contract. This is not in the same universe as letting merchandise out of your grasp without...

Papyrus is bad enough without warping it this way and that. Actually it's not bad, it's incredibly passe. It used to be a nice face until every chowder society newsletter and grade school recital program began using it.

Once again the coven of incisive legal minds shoveling on this sand pile fail to comprehend the difference between criminal and civil issues. Law enforcement enforces the law, not contracts. Someone stiffing you is a contractual issue, a civil matter. Removing that sign you made without due...

Wow, I didn't realize it was such a prodigious amount. It's certainly a good thing that specimens such as yourself are up there on that wall to defend us from the forces of darkness. If that much waste ink should fall into the wrong hands it might destroy civilization as we know it. Had I but...

It's always entertaining when one of the terminally smug chances to drift into these waters. We're talking about a couple of ounces of waste here sport. You might try to develop a sense of scale about these sorts of things. Something which you're obviously lacking. This planet's a far bigger...

Merely because you couldn't detect any color difference does not mean that the files were identical. By the numbers... 1. Open a CMYK jpg in your favorite program. Mine's Corel. 2. Export the image to another file, call it 'File1.jpg', in CMYK. 3. Import 'File1.jpg'. 4. Export the image...

No, you will not get the same numbers. Merely opening the file and then saving it once again is sufficient. You don't have to change a damn thing, the two files are different. You might actually try it before you drop your mouth into gear. I did. It works exactly as I have described...

I'll repeat... Which part of 're-saving' don't you get? You display a CMYK file, it's mapped into RGB in order to display the thing. Should you subsequently save the image then the RGB image is mapped into CMYK. There is no reason to think that that mapping from RGB into CMYK will produce...

That's true. Which word in "if you re-save it" are you having problems with? A color shift will only occur if you re-save the file. Moreover, it can occur each and every time you display and re-save the image, not just once. If you keep everything in RGB the you'll never have to worry about it...

Unless you happen to re-save it. That being the point.

Yes. A PDF is simply a container for various objects in other, often proprietary, formats. Along with each object is sufficient data to describe what it is and recreate the object. As far as what color model to use, for bitmaps always RGB. In order to display a bitmap if it's in CMYK it...

If the ink turned the vinyl into so much pulsating tapioca and the odor caused anyone near to it to run out into traffic it would not constitute evidence for the existence of 'outgassing' as being posed here in this sandbox. Or is it the case that any physical phenomenon generated by solvent...

Nice sign but a dubious logo. Way too much detail and gratuitous effects. Why is it that whenever a sign maker attempts a logo or a business card, it usually looks like a sign and not a logo or a business card. Perhaps the average sign maker has little aptitude for dealing with small areas.

Vinyl is gas permeable. Including laminates. That's why the odd bubble will heal itself over time. If a print really does 'outgas' it can do so right through the laminate as well as out the other side. There is no real evidence that 'outgassing' is not some mythical event of the sort used to...

I just pour it down a convenient rodent hole in the south forty. If I didn't have a south forty, I'd pour it down any convenient drain or put it in a Cool Whip container or a plastic milk jug, snap on a lid, and put it out with the trash. The very thought of this probably causes environmental...

"Tight"? Being unfamiliar with this particular dialect of urban gibberish, would that be good or bad?

While I don't wrangle a Roland, thankfully, I have dealt with my share of damaged fasteners. I assume from your post that you have somehow damaged the head and not the actual threaded shaft. That being the case, what kind of drive is this screw? Common, Phillips, hex, allen, Torx, what? Each one...

Tell them that what might be legible spread across a monitor is not necessarily legible on a 2x3.5 business card. In this case the web site is bad and the resultant business card is terrible.

That's because the height specification is the height of the type body, not the type itself. The type body is the rectangle that contains the actual characters. The type body at a minimum must accommodate lower case descenders as well as special character ascenders and descenders. Moreover, in...

As long as you use proper technique you won't have any bubbles, neither from time to time nor ever. Once you develop the proper technique, application flaws happen most often when you stop paying complete attention to what your doing. Doing simple flat work wet is a sure sign that you have...
