    Weird. I purchase from Grimco (Orlando) as well and the IJ35C-20 was not bagged.
  3. Question for 3M IJ35, IJ35C users

    It is boxed, end capped and taped. No bags on any rolls I have ever purchased. Its the same with IJ 40. I never considered it to be a big deal since I always advance past anything that has been taped or that I touch.

  7. Pantone Spotcolor Replacement Table LAB

    attachment I am not sure it the attachment took. Here it is.
  8. Pantone Spotcolor Replacement Table LAB

    I think you are going to see the same results with LAB as you do with RGB. I am not familiar enough with wasatch to advise you on a better method. That is unless wasatch has the ability to recognize the named spot colors. In that case you may be able to provide cmyk replacements for each named...
  9. how digital can bite you in the a$$

    I would reprint and eat the cost. This looks like the quickest reaction time to me. I am wondering though if the client knew you re typeset their PDF files. Perhaps they thought they had already spell checked their files. You can follow up later with a meeting on how to set up files properly...
  10. Which swatches do you use?

    I use the Pantone Solid Coated Library for my swatches and a Pantone Color Bridge /coated for my book.
  11. Anyone know of a colour pallet generator for Corel?

    I have not used corel in a long time but there used to be a VB script for generating color pallets included in corel. Version 9 had the most functionality as I recall and later versions lost a bit in my opinion. Look through your included VB scripts and see what you have. As I recall, you could...
  12. Profiling -- yeeaaaargh!

    Ill answer the simplest questions first. No, one profile should be enough for each combination of printer, media, ink and print mode. What some people do however is use different rendering intents when confronted with problem colors. I tend to use relative colormetric as a default for all my...
  13. Thoughts?

    I would look at some of the inca options first. We just signed a contract on a Spyder 320 VOW. We used Sericol for the distributor. I say to look at incas first because both Fuji and Sericol always seem ready to demo a unit and both companies offered to cover our air fare. There are 2 mid range...
  14. Tradeshow booth Problem

    We use double sided tape for the headers and kickers but also use magnetic tape for the sides of each panel. There should not be a lot of weight on the top with the magnetic strips in place on the sides. As a matter of fact, we have installed graphics in a few booths with the headers missing and...
  15. Need advice on adhering painted letters.

    Thanks for the replies everyone. These are pretty small signs and the deadline is tight so we went with 3M 4950.
  16. Using Your Profession for Christmas Decorations

    A couple of years ago, I created some routered snowflake graphics on white styrene. My girlfriend loved them. I just took a few vector snowflakes and overlapped them in illustrator. The table time was crazy but the looked awesome.
  17. Need advice on adhering painted letters.

    Hello all. We are in the process of creating our first dimensional sign on our new router. The background is 1/2 white sintra and the letters are cut out of the same sintra and outsourced for painting with automotive paint. I would love some recommendations on methods to adhere the letters to...

    Ask them for a no curl blockout banner product for banner stands.
  19. A Signmaker, Silkscreener and Printing Company walk into a location....

    It may not be a problem at first but it could easily turn in to trouble. Back in the 80's graphics businesses were highly specialized. Screen printing, offset printing, photo labs and sign shops were entirely different animals and no one worried about the other. When digital printing started...
