  1. Font ID please

    maybe, but I'm not going to download it. Let's see it in the thread.
  2. Cutting weighted outline in Illustrator.

    apply stroke same color as fill (on a copy in the back, as mentioned earlier), then choose the "outline stroke" command mentioned earlier, then while still selected, choose "unite" from the pathfinder tools. Done. Ken, Corel is inferior, save your pontification for n00bs who can't afford...
  3. Material for Surfboard Stickers

    well, the "right" way to put graphics on boards is to silkscreen on rice paper & glass it right into the board, but I've been using 3M or Arlon high performance & removing the wax with a scraper, then with rapid prep. In addition to tens of thousands of stickers i've sold to surf, sail, and...
  4. Flexi, Gerber Edge, Compound white underbase??

    Thanks Gary, I've seen those "candy colors" with direct printing, and just as well overlaying the clear prints. As I mentioned, my job required white as wee, so I edge printed that & chose to use clear inkjet prints so I could manually registere them to my white printing. whoa!!... 11 posts...
  5. Flexi, Gerber Edge, Compound white underbase??

    hmm...just finished a 21 hour workday, on about 4 hours sleep... so, looks like the east Coast folks are waking up... I'll let some of them take over here. :Sleeping: Good Luck!
  6. Flexi, Gerber Edge, Compound white underbase??

    In Omega, The Image File Would Get Set To "overprint" And This Would Allow The White To Print First, With No "knock-out"
  7. Flexi, Gerber Edge, Compound white underbase??

    I'm sure there is at least one "right way", but I don't use Flexi for my Edge, so I don't know any of the "right ways", but like so many things... there are probably numerous workaround solutions. One is the idea you mentioned of running it like 2 jobs. The Edge 2 has a home key, that brings one...
  8. Hello from a new Merchant Supplier

    welcome. Great idea signing up as a merchant & specializing in this niche. I bet you will do real well. I may even help. (help your business do well, that is)
  9. Printing Double-Sided Banner on JV3-130SPII... Aneurysm Ensues

    what are you charging?
  10. Cutting weighted outline in Illustrator.

    first of all, you should consider making a copy of the text, pasting it in the back, and adding your stroke weight only to the back copy. The front copy, without any stroke represents the proper letter forms designed into the font. These should not be messed with as they will suffer somewhat...
  11. Printing Double-Sided Banner on JV3-130SPII... Aneurysm Ensues

    if your artwork is 31"... but say for example you are printing on 36" media, and your printable area might be 34"... then what I would do is add 1-1/2" of white space to the top and another 1-1/2' to the bottom, so the image file becomes the same 34" as your maximum print area. This may add a...
  12. Where are these graphics from?

    sorry dude.. them teenyboppers are NOT hotties, and they are obviously not kissing... they are lousy "actors" in cheap outfits, posing (poorly) for a contrived and failed attempt to elicit any worthwhile response. I pity any who have experienced so little that this lame kidstore cliche gets...
  13. Photoshop Elements plug-in for ai files ?

    sounds completely illogical and untrue to me.
  14. I need photoshop!!!! Anyone?

    msrobere, you could sell version 6 at a decent price, since you could offer to sign Adobe's "transfer of license agreement" and just keep your new CS3 license. The original poster should get it by now that there is no cheap AND legal way to get what most of us have paid well over $500 for...
  15. Something I've alreay learned

    hmm... my laminator sits with rollers engaged all day and night between uses... for 2 years now... should I worry about that?
  16. FlexiSign Panel Issue

    I always print image files instead of vector art, so I cut my panels in photoshop. Along the lines of Myron's suggestion, if you put two images side by side & rotate one, you could stop the print halfway. Or just export as a .tif file & crop the image like I do. (hmm... on 54' material...

    8 Years Of Leaving Wheels Down Hasn't Hurt My Plotters Yet
  18. sub out color print pricing?

    I won't tear you apart, but iI will tell you to charge more. Why not? ... work like that is worth more, and it WILL cost more from the vast majority of companies who have done this long enough to realize they will not succeed if they don't charge more. I get $150 for a pair af magnets every...
  19. Looking for Photoshop

    another vote for "elements" as a lower entry level product with amazing capabilities. be careful how much you spend on second hand Adobe software from ebay... you most likely will NOT be eligible for upgrade products... unless you and the seller go through the "transfer of registration"...
  20. Hello.... again.

    ok Gino... someone has to reply "sign language" ...so might as well get it said move on :rolleyes: welcome from another former resident of Chicago's northwest suburbs.
