  1. production manager "setup inactive" message?

    I've been sending print/cut files to my mimaki equipment out of flexi for close to 2 years now & have always had the cut files stack up in the production manager & wait there days or weeks until the job is cured, laminated & ready to be cut. (usually next day... but not always) Anyway, this...
  2. Illustrator mystery...

    I've been using this software for about 15 years... but I stick with what I know & don't really venture too far into learning new stuff... then once in a while some really basic little thing has me stumped. This past week, I've been encountering this recurring issue that really inconveniences...
  3. suddenly got a horrible test draw on my Mimaki...

    I just was showing my new employee how to do our cleaning procedure on the Mimaki, just as we had done last Thursday. After we were done, I did a "test draw" and got almost perfect results. (the bottom one in my pic) Then we set up a few 46" x 46" prints for construction project signs. I...
  4. illustrator annoying mystery

    I have version 9 loaded on 2 workstations & CS2 on 2 (I have 2 licenses) I mostly use 9 & only use CS to open newer files. I have a strange occurance that has been bugging me for months since my employee left & I'm using his old workstation more often because it's on the second floor where...
  5. clipart logo design

    OK... I know that topic heading is looking for trouble... but I chose to post this logo under software>clipart & digital files... instead of logo design, or portfolio... because I have given the to people wanting to buy Vector art etc. because I always say it paid for itself. Well this logo...
  6. only 6 hours left for Christmas Juice

    I just got my 12 DVD's for the price of 1!! The "Juicedrops" digital printing background images that someone posted about here last week seemed to generate a lot of positive feedback on that thread, though I had never heard of digitaljuice.com before. I went and checked it out, picked out...
  7. GBC Laminator... I need to learn the finer points of adjustments

    My recent Big Squeegee video was largely a result of some difficulty I'm having with my GBC Arctic Titan. I bought the Big Squeegee to assist with application of large prints etc. I think it will be a valuable asset around here for that, but I still prefer my laminator for applying lamination...
  8. signlab: I'm seeking a command for logical, or efficient cutting order

    Hi all, I bought Signlab to replace CasMate when I hired a 3 yr. veteran of Signlab & wanted to take advantage of his abilities. I learned enough to cut the odd rush job in his absence, but never really looked through the training video or really explored it much. One issue that always drives...
  9. font ID ?

    anyone able to steer me in the right direction on this one? I know it's rather common & probably among my 600 installed fonts... but I had thought of Friz Quadrata at first, when I realized I was wrong... no more ideas of where to look were coming up for me, so I thought I'd try you folks...
  10. reformating my hard drive question

    I got a new Dell recently & all is successfully migrated over there from my previous design workstation. The previous workstation has been in heavy use for 2 years & before I reassign it to take over the role of my "dedicated Mimaki workstation" I want to wipe it clean to optimize it's...
  11. illustrator CS1 font preview question

    I have several plans for change in 2007. One of them is to quit procrastinating in my acceptance of the Illustrator upgrades I've been buying. I bought 10, CS1 & CS2 over the last several years, so I could always open any files my clients bring me, but I've kept using 9 all this time. One...
  12. I've been offered opportunity to buy a "Euro Drop" doming machine...

    I wondered if anyone here has any first hand experience with the Euro Drop Automatic Doming Mixer C80/E36. The guy selling it bought it from Advanced Color Solutions for $2695 including a "starter kit of tray, cups, scale, 1 liter of T863 hardener & 1 liter of T823 Poly Resin He also...
  13. I'm drawing a blank on a couple familiar fonts...

    anyone able to help on these ones tonight? I feel like the first one should start with the letter A... :help: ...the second one I'll probably remember in 5 minutes after I let everyone see how bad my short term memory is...hmm lithos maybe, I'll go check
  14. Font ID (looks like "Constitution" but cleaner)

    What the font found a very similar font (Constitution) but it has ragged edges (sort of like Papyrus) & I need smooth edges. This is what my client wants (I know it's ugly to use for PUC #'s... but it's for some limo outfit that has used it for years:
  15. my turn... font id anyone?

    I just got the second $2K rush banner order in 10 days. This one is already typeset to scale, but one line of text is acceptable, but not immaculate. It is for a very important client I've only just begun to do business with, so to go the extra mile of buying their font to improve there...
  16. another font ID request...

    I did a car show sign with this font a few years ago, but unfontunantly the previous file is one of the 20 gigs from the great crash of 2005. I don't remember what font it is & whatthefont.com didn't help either, so I'm turning to the signs101 experts.
  17. font limitations in XP sp2 (related to Adobe CS2)

    I discovered an issue I hadn't heard about earlier. I had typed up a post, then wanted to troubleshoot a little further before opening up a discussion, so I copied it & saved it. It ended up corrupting into dozens of text blocks instead of one long paragraph, so it is not so easy to post it...
  18. Font Id Request

    ok, no luch on what the font... The logo I need to recreate had the text all kerned into a group, so I've seperated them & fixed a few serifs where they got surgically seperated... anyway, I just agreed to fix this before running 16 prints TODAY... I hope I (I mean Eric) won't have to...
  19. font id ?

    I'm drawing a blank on this familiar font... can anybody tell me what it is?
