In CS4, I just made a checkerboard pattern, out of vector squares. I dragged it over to the swatch pallette. Then typed a few letters, converted to outlines & clicked on the new checkerboard swatch, which filled my letter just fine. When I turned the view from preview mode, to outline mode, the...

you mention contour cutting, but I also see in your profile that you have a printer, so I'm guessing you are printing too. I think the swatches you assign as fills end up as rastor images, so I would save two versions of the file. One I would export as an RGB .tiff file. The other one I would...

I would say to convert the fonts to outlines, and if the patterns are assigned as "fills" you might need to go the extra step of undoing any masks, and trimming, or welding or whatever pathfinder tools will reduce the vector paths to only showing up in the letter shapes. mybe that's how they...

well, I only logged on to post a link for SJ, from the SAI rep, who recently invited an and all of us to contact him for a link to a 8.6v that should improve some 8.5 issues.. so let's get that out of the way first... the LINK To BP, I confess, I'm not perfect, so any attempt to digout of...

Thank SJ, for what it's worth when I upgraded to Flexi 8.5, I had a similar problem, except when importing .ai files, it totally locked up Flexi. Not sure why, but the uninstall-reinstall took care of mine too. But you already solved it by the time I saw you post. Hope it keeps working... for...

sorry, I didn't recognize the appreciation in this post. Somewhere in the 10 hours since your post last night, I guess you figured it all out... but since you hadn't posted that minute detail, someone came on trying to help you... your reply appeared about as unappreciative as the rest of this...

well, if you're done moderating whether or not I'm moderating... I'm done too. Aloha and Mele Kalikimaka :peace!:

"pardon me for not being really excited" :omg:

what's up tartgirl, am I your new whipping boy? how about you find someone else to irritate ok? Merry Christmas :peace!: I know you constantly rave about this site, but you never seem to give much consideration to forum sponsors. Since you aren't paying anything to be here, you might want...

no worries... see ya back here in 8 months when it's worth your time again to log in and freak out about something... and you won't be surprised if we aren't really excited about your participation either

Thanks guys. That explains it better than I had understood, and I let the guy know I would pass on it. My 7.5 HP 80 Gal. compressor is more then adequate for what I'm currently doing with it, but at a price less than freight alone would cost if I grew to needing one in the future, I thought I...

does anyone here use compressed air receivers? I found a deal on one or two 120 gal Manchester receiver tanks in great shape. My 80 gallon take kicks on often when I use the air for our Multicam, which is somewhat noisy, and conributes to the heightened electric bill. It also kicks on to...

ditto... ...and why do you have to settle for basing your theory on what you "think"? Why can't you just watch it cut & find out? My clips are nowhere near close enough to the cutting strip to even imagine them getting cut.

oh yeah... I forgot, his "proper introduction" would have included blowing his cover, and revealing his secret hideout & his plans to conquer the world... good thing I have friends in the Murder Capital :doh:

don't mind shovelhead... that's how he introduces himself ...now you know what to expect from him :Big Laugh (in addition to all the help he offers) Nobody tells you any rules here... but some of us make them up anyway, so we can bitch about breaking them. :smile: By the way, as far as I'm...

:doh: unless they don't have photoshop or CorelDraw...

um... not sure, but right click & choose "view background image" ...it will only give you a 1" slice... but it is a tileable background, and can be copied & repeated in photoshop, or assigned as a web page background to auto repeat. If you click the weblink in the bottom of the generating...

well, I've been doing this a long time, or some parts of this biz a long time... Illustrator and vinyl cutting for 19 years... large format printing for 3 years... and typing out questions and answers on the internet for 8 years... and if I can't understand the question, then I think you ought...
