thanks Fred. you right not one formula will work for everyone.
just wanted to see what other were charging. obviously it will vary according to local competitors.
i'm curious as to what others are pricing their die cut graphics. like logo shapes cut from printed decals.

Ok so we just purchased an FC8000-160.
yaaay.
My question is how do you price die cutting or perf cutting printed artwork.

GEEZ LAMINATE THAT!

CB will crash when there is not enough room to fit the image your trying to open into your layout width or length. If it is slightly larger your fine but if...
