I'm kind of interested in what people do to back up.
My own past experience (paranoia) makes me back up the server to Norton Ghost every night, and Carbonite during the day. I also throw two monthly live copies onto yet another pair of USB drives.
My only downside with Carbonite is the time...
My main file server died on Friday. The drive, 500 gig with all my business for the last three years failed, dead as a doornail.
I'm so pleased that my backups finally paid off. Went to Tiger Direct, bought a new 1tb drive and dropped the latest (12 hours old) backup back on it.
You have to...
Interesting to read the different approaches.
I do like the idea of covering it over with removable vinyl, is that vandalism? I also like the dead-beat sign by the side of the road, but in the end the real mistake was made by the sign shop. Having no up-front charges may generate extra...
Thanks.
I just burned half a morning. Now I'll have to rush to beat the shipping.
Nobody post any more interesting or fun stuff for the rest of the day!
Unless you embed the imported raster it doesn't matter what you set your resolution to. The menu... effect>document raster effects settings only changes the resolution on live effects like drop shadows. The information is still in there whether you save at 300 or 72.
I'll often work on a file...
For years we have most of our jobs "pay on approval (by credit card only) or it doesn't get printed". However to grow you HAVE to take the companies who only pay by cheque, only pay when they do a "cheque run" once a month (and the run is always the day before your invoice hits).
It's creeping...
Remember, this is canada. You can grind your teeth, get hypertension, but you must be polite. just email the cops about this bunch of swarthy types stockpiling fertilizer.
Distiller secured .pdf files are very easy to crack.
If you have vectors in the design they can be stolen.
You need to rasterize the design before you low res proof.
have the back for eroded fancy "display stuff" the front should be for simple easy to read contact details and a logo. 1 phone, 1 fax, 1 email and 1 web address. possibly a cell if you really don't want a life on weekends and nights.
I have the time today (because I'm not constantly restarting my rip). to thank the people at Roland who are resposible for fixing the constantly crashing/freezing in Versaworks.
I didn't realise how much I have been dreading working with the beast until my latest upgrade and the joy of...
You need a spacer to stop the crush. something like a short metal rod 4mm long, placed on the centre of the press when you put the lower ring on. That will stop the last 4mm of travel that crushes. I find there is enough grip to hold, especially when doing real estate riders.
Corporations don't think like people.
Your old department will now run at a loss. They will close it down and either not do signage or outsource it. Your new boss will be looking at his bottom line and ask you to either take a pay cut or lose you in the next round of cuts and replace you with...
I have similar issues with a distant customer, I printed swatches of the colours involved, and possible replacement colours, sent them to the designer.
It really depends if you have an experienced designer or not. I would get away from pantones and work on cmyk or rgb values.
However I found...
With the lock-ups its almost to the point of ritual, Click the OK button, hold it for a count of five and hope.
I don't lose anything but time, but it is frustrating in an otherwise good program.
