  5. Material roll fastenings

    Greetings! Just wondered what you are using to hold rolls of material closed between uses. We've tried painters tape (doesn't hold), masking tape (can leave a residue), rubber bands (leaves pressure marks) and these thingies from one of our suppliers.

  17. Hesitant font listings

    Greetings! Just lately, my Coreldraw X3 is taking a while to list available fonts. When I scroll down the font list, there is a hesitation before it shows the 'next page' and it isn't smooth at all. I have 540 fonts installed - is this the problem? Any suggestions?
  18. Pedestal signs

    Greetings! We've been asked to quote for a couple of pedestal signs for a local park - the sort of thing with an angled panel showing various info. and supported on a metal post. I'm getting costs for having them made locally, but can anyone recommend a supplier who might already manufacture...
