bad idea. Don't do it. If your clients quantities don't justify di-cutting, then they need to do without di-cutting. If you're new to the industry, do yourself a favor & get good at saying NO! If you customers want something they can't afford, say no. Nobody needs di-cut stickers, they...

I trust Bob. He shows one. I've done many reverse applied decals with a white "backing" on top... but never added black & never made a two sided decal, so I figured if Bob did it, one hiit would work. Besides, now they have super opaque white foils, so that would be my choice. (or flood-coat white)

Brian, I think white - grey - white would be enough, but I would probable use black. Sounds like you have enough of a grasp on what you need to do that this link may not be helpful to you, but for others reading this thread... Bob G. posted this years ago & it could be helpful to some...

it's not really that much of a "bad idea" compared to subbing out "every banner"... but compared to where he'd be if he bought a larger printer... only one material cost to pay for: the banner (ok, 2 if you count the ink) and only one labor cost to pay for: adding grommets (ok, 2 if you...

I'd get it from Graphtec. ...but if you want to drop by here, you can photocopy mine. Even if you lived next door though... you could sell and make a pair of magnets in less time... why not just give 'em the $ 50?

Hi Bill... the first thing I checked was the site's ID tag under your name & last night it said Pre-Schooler, not Merchant Member. Glad to see you are here to be a merchant! I'm sure you won't regret it. ...And now you know we'll all make sure nobody slides in the back door to compete with...

OK, help me out here... ...exactly what is self promotion? ..specifically as it applies to signs101? ...& is it allowed? I don't know, that's why I looked it up. Am I missing something? Sure, there's nothing wrong with being a go-getter, except it depends on where you go & what...

I found out about my first plotter when I picked up a hitch hiker here in Maui. I was working part time for Island Sign, then a screen-print only shop. The owner wanted to sell, but nobody wanted to buy, & I was concerned about losing my job if it sold, but I didn't have any savings at all... &...

Hello from Hawaii! Please check out the FAQ link at the top of your screen. Then click the "Forum policies" link to read about self promotion... ...or click HERE... & you will find this:

the PB & J man! wasssup?

Omega can do that. I'm 99% sure signlab & flexi can as well, but I couldn't tell you where to look. I'd be very surprised if Corel couldn't do it too.

here you go, does this look like it? You're welcome! :rolleyes:

aloha!

Hi Gradus, I'm from Illinois originally... not far from you in Hoffman Estates. My sister lives in Desplains. Are you opening a commercial location, or working out of your house? Did you work in a shop already? Good luck!

I'm with Gear on this one, find something close, like Fred's choice & tweak it. You got an E to copy from that lower line of text, Handel's "S" looks ideal, although I reduce the radius on Handel's "L" to match the sharper corner in DINGO's G

if an object has a fill AND stroke, & you want to convert it to JUST a fill... you select it & the tool bar at left shows 2 squares at the bottom that represent fill & stroke, the lower right is for the stroke, & clicking on it to make it overlap in front of the fill square will allow you to...

We have a Flamingo announcement specialist here... maybe she will add some info :thumb:

how about using WXP's remote desktop connection from Machine A, to access the printing software on Machine B & send the file from B, without having to get out of your chair at A. The downside is if someone else is using A at that time, you will be competing for control, but if not, it could...

well lucky you, the first post you read was not showing signs101 at it very best... or even an average representative sample... so instead of looking further, you felt you first impression had value. Maybe you formulated any impression way to fast to have been worth forming in your own mind, let...

I would agree with everything said above. If you run a 6 or 8 color set up, you will get better art reproduction color gamut.... but with just 4 color, like my Mimaki... the prints look great on picaso canvas, but the colors I can get, while fine for 99% of the sign purchasing community...
