It's not that my heart doesn't bleed for you, it most certainly does. That does not alter the inarguable fact that anything can be fixed as long as it's well and truly malfunctioning as opposed to orbiting about some inherent design flaw. You simply haven't been able to fix it or to find...

Only if you have specified 'Weld Based on Color'. If not, you can weld any object to any other object. The resultant composite will take on the fill and stroke of the topmost object. If that object is sporting an outline, not a stroke, then the resultant composite will take on the color and...

Buy a paper bit, sort of a hollow round knife blade and your drill press is a paper drill. Most any place that will sell you the whole rig will sell you a bit. Lubricate it by drilling into a chunk of beeswax every now and then.

I print from Production Manager bypassing Flexi all the time. I find that I get crisper better color going direct into Production Manager, at least it seems that way to me. In fact I seldom print from Flexi at all unless I'm doing a contour cut. Even that I can do without printing through Flexi...

My shop machine runs XP Home with a Falcon Outdoor 48, among other things, and I've never had a problem with connectivity. Plug the TCP/IP module into the printer and connect to an Ethernet port with a cross-over cable. Set the IP address of the TCP/IP module into the Production Manager setup...

Are you complaining that the software is changing your settings on the plotter? If so, bring up the Background Settings menu and set the Command Priority, I think that's what it's called but I don't have my manual to hand, such that the plotter will ignore any software parameter setting.

Right up there with the homely bint with no eyebrows, Mona Lisa, and the Last Supper as the most widely known works by old Leo.

Of the two heaters on a Falcon Outdoor, the only one you can crank up to more than 50c is the strip in front of the feed rollers and it ought not to be more that 50c. The one you can't get past 50c is the fixer/dryer and it ought to be able to go higher. Regardless, yeah, the heat's too high...

I have a 4x8 table that I've used with the Big squeegee to laminate 10+' prints. Being right handed I proceeded thusly... First cut off a piece of laminate slightly longer than the print. Make damn sure the table and both sides of boh the print and the laminate are clean and free from...

Service contracts are only a good deal for those selling them. Way back when I was a corporate warrior one of the things I did was price service contracts. These are far more lucrative than the product itself. If you pay $X per year for a service contract it's an odds on bet that you're not...

It would seem to me that scouting out the worst example of a sign ever discovered would not be as interesting as using a vanilla mediocre not so bad kind of sign as grist for this mill. Is the objective to merely make a nice sign out of dreck or make an excellent sign out of a not so bad...

The term 'font' is even more meaningless when referring to a painted sign than it usually is. Every letter on a painted sign is a product of the hand of whomever painted it. No two sign writers will interpret any actual typeface in the same way. Even two of them following the same pounce...

That won't allow you to change its transparency. Do this... Select the object to be make transparent. On the Effects tool bar flyout select the Interactive Transparency tool. It's the wineglass looking thing. Put the cursor on one side of the object and drag to the other side. This should...

Practice is better than any book. There's two basic levels to learning something like Corel. Pretend for the moment that Corel is a language, then you have the rank beginner who doesn't know what you can say and the graphics hand that knows what can be said as well as what it wants to say but...

All of the stuff I've ever used from IStock was about $2 to $6, $10 max on rare occasion, per image. Perhaps there's images there for hundreds but I've never come across them.

While the files may be inconsequential to the operation of the fonts, they are not such when managing my systems. I know where everything is, including Corel files. It really doesn't matter why I want to know this, only that I want to. We're not talking about DVDs here, we're talking about...

Fine, except for a couple of things that tend to offend my admittedly overdeveloped sense of propriety... You're writing files on MY machine...just where the hell are they? It's MY machine and those are MY files. Unless it's been repealed there is a body of federal legislation to the...

Anyone can take any measures they deem necessary to protect their goodies. But do not expect me to alter my behavior an iota to accommodate whatever it is they choose to do. This does not mean that I don't empathize with them, especially having been in the software business. I'm not part of...

Wrong. They are the ones that decided to implement their wares in the way they did. For whatever reasons. The reasons only matter to them, and are of zero concern to anyone else. You make a decision, you are responsible for it. Why you made a particular decision is immaterial. The...

If they appear in an applications font comb box then the ARE in the windows font directory. That they are not listed means that probably they're marked as 'Hidden' or 'Protected Operation System' files. See if these are not being displayed by... ...Fonts->Tools->Folder Options->View If...
