The following post may (or may not) be helpful in illustrating what I perceive happening. Once the theory is grasped, it becomes very, very easy to check your prints before output and also how to work within the parameters of the physical hardware. Gerber Edge, possible foil saving tip

Does any part of your duplicated spot colour have “Overprint” assigned? Standard fill and Overlap print at one heat setting while Overlap prints at an elevated heat. The Edge only allows printing at one heat setting per pass; i.e. – standard fill and overlap will print on the first pass while...

Hello from Central PA. Kathy & I were just in Johnstown (Ferndale actually) on Saturday for another Chuck Wago day Letterhead gathering hosted by Big City Signs that Jillbeans mentioned above. Always a great time of learning, sharing and fellowship. Pat & Bob are not only great people, but...

DeVries Signs, Welcome to Signs 101. I was at one point active at the edge based forum and still somewhat active inside Letterville, but heap much praise and adoration to others of Signs 101 and believe it to be the best “well-rounded” sign based US effort. Now that we are done stroking Fred…...

Not a complete answer, but possible work around? I’m not so sure palettes can be permanently modified by end users inside Omega. What you may want to do is create a “template” document that has modified values in it, then Import ([F10]) that template and use the Job Palette to drag and drop...

Ian, Glad you found the file. I never checked to ensure the link was still a valid one. For others, I have uploaded the pdf file that has the instructions/tweaks needed. Few things to remember please; First, the document originated from William Park from Newtownstewart, Ireland. I do not...

Experiencing the same issue, lack of thumbnails within Windows OS dialogs, etc. with CS4 installed but was able to use the same modifications/tweaks as done for CS3. Just wanted to reply as an update for anyone that stumbles across this looking for a solution. Been meaning to post this since...

Great Investment! I’ll be there! Canceled my “Spring” PS World East trip to Orlando (and ISA show) earlier this year, so I immediately penciled “Fall/West” on the calendar. Coming to town the weekend before (small vacation) and then bringing the red eye back east after Saturday‘s events...

CS2 & CS3…not sure about CS as it’s been awhile: Select text with Type tool Single left click on the current font name Scroll list using up or down arrow key to see preview *** [CTRL+h] will hide the selection highlight that might make it easier to see the text as you scroll through...

Due to time restraints, this is going to be very short and brief; more later today if needed. Did you use the Gerber provided utility called cleansys.exe? This utility usually performs a more methodical and thorough job of removing ALL traces of the program, much more so then the standard...

Took a trip down to the basement after making the previous post. Amazing what you can find it the “outdated box of goodies” and the memories they bring back (some good, some not so good). :rolleyes: Long ago I had a Thunder GC-HE S4520 setup as a server. Board was quad 603 socket based; I...

The Asus P4P800-SE or P4P800-E Deluxe offers five PCI slots (plus an AGP and ASUS WiFi slot). Doesn’t get what you’re after on the original post (short on slot count and they are not US made), however, combined with three (or four/five) SIIG CyberParallel Dual IO cards or Lava Dual Parallel PCI...

Sounds like you may have toggled the Bounding Box off. You can toggle it on/off with the [CTRL+SHIFT+B] key combination or visit View>Show Bounding Box.

Similar but not the same as Polycarve; King ColorCore® by King Plastic Corporation, offered and available via Harbor Sales Company.

As a quick follow-up, you can convert files already created without having to open them in Composer as well. There is utility included with the Omega suite called File Converter. Launch the utility, then File>Export, select the file(s) to be converted, select the Export file type, set the...

Threeputt, Within the Export/Save/Save As dialog, the listing of “Save as type” offers two different eps and ai formats; the ones listed toward the top are Gerber in-house developed filters and are labeled as such; EPS – (GSP) Encapsulated Postscript File and AI – (GSP) Adobe Illustrator...

Just a heads up for anyone using CS3 based programs, a little more work is required then the solution provided above. Adobe, trying to encourage everyone to use Bridge, has set Illustrator CS3, by default, to check that thumbnail support from within Explorer is disabled AT EVERY LAUNCH. I became...

CS3 requires additional registry modifications Update!!! CS3 will not work with ONLY the above changes. Additional registry changes are required. See a thread started by njsigns on December 15, 2007 titled Viewing PSD thumbnails in Explorer for additional information.

Mike, I handed out a four page “Tips and Tricks” at an EdgeHead gathering during the USSC Sign World show back in 2003. Page four reviews some items addressing Edge print head cleaning (page one relates to Pantone and Process from within Omega, page two reviews “Changes Only” within the...

Fred, Time continues to tick away and memory persists to become a weak link, however, I believe starting with 2.5 or 2.51 GSP began to support Open Type fonts. The utility is still titled TT Font Converter (G32ttfcv.exe) and will not only see and work with .ttf fonts but .otf as well. Just as...
