I run into issues with this software. I have a file that is rather large and was originally a pdf file made from a combo of bitmap and vector graphics. I want to send a proof to the customer but can't find a pdf option. Does it exist? If not what is the best way to save the file so that it is...

Is there any way to get it back? This is the one thing I don't like about this software..at least give me a warning screen, like are you sure you want to overwrite the file?. I know in Signlab it creates a backup file that you can change to a cdl file and like magic the original file is back

How annoying is this? I use Signlab as my main setup software as I am pretty fast in it and Flexi is designated strictly for print cut only. I am amazed at how a pdf file will change colours just by simply importing it and then exporting it as an eps file. I don't think it does it all the...

I had my new plotter for about 2 weeks when it was discovered that the mechanism that allow you to adjust the blade was jammed and the entire head had to be swapped out for a new one. In that 2 week period before I even knew there was an issue I was cutting 3 ml vinyl with 3 ml lam at about 135...

I have no idea how I did it before but have spent far too much time trying to find where I can lock in the registration mark distance from one another. I had it set to the maximun 19" for the longest time, then I hada new Summa installed and I think the tech did something and every job now goes...

I like the idea of running my vinyl cutter for printed graphics with the blade weight controlled by Flexi as to adjusting it on the cutter itself. I have always done it that way with my old machine and for whatever reason feel comfortable doing it that way...however I have tried a few times and...

WOW! I can't believe I have been suffering with my old Summa D140 all these years. This new plotter cuts fantastic and reads all the marks so far. Just curious if anyone out there running this plotter on Flexi can explain to me how to make the new plotter my default when sending print/cut...

It seems to me I have to save everything on the screen and I don't want to do that. Is there a different function to do that?

Ever notice that the cutting strips on Graphtecs always wear out down on the right bottom side where you cut most everything and the strip between 24 - 54" is perfect as you cut less up there. I found on my cutter you are forced to cut many things down near the origin point becaause you can't...

I had a vehicle come in today and I had to strip off some logos on the side. Everything was white and I cringed thinking that I would be out in the heat with a heat gun and very slow work. The stripping was easy, no heat gun needed. Everything once you lifted an edge came off clean, no glue...

I have a customer who wants a wall graphic 6' x 7' - I plan on using Avery 2611 to print on. If I do a seam would you apply them with an overlap or butt them up, or do the overlap and like with wallpaper cut between the 2 and remove the excess? What about shrinkage

I am planning on getting this plotter in the next week or so.... who's got one and are you happy with it?

I am by no means a wrap shop, but the odd time I have to do partial wraps on trailers. This one I have today has clear silicone above the side door and I have found it along the top edge of the trailer under the aluminum trim. How do you deal with these areas?

Started about 3 months ago out of nowhere...the moment you latch a graphic on the take up reel and it gets some tension it starts moaning. I tinkered with it but the more force I put on the clutch the louder the noise....sort of sounds like a vibrator gone crazy. If I back off the tension the...

I still need my edge to print white on clear and that is about all I use it for. I don't change blades in this machine too often and my old blade needs so much pressure it was scoring right through one cut on every decal, making it very hard to deal with. I finally found a third part blade and...

My Gerber dealer up here in the great white north wants $160 for 1 blade...is this the price? I haven't changed a blade in my plotter in years ( due to lack of use). No way I am paying that much for a blade. Just curious where you guys get your blades in the USA?

Yesterday I ran a 1 hr head soak...today I cleaned the capping station and the print head. This print had a lot of black in it and this is what I find when I come back after the print was completed. It did not ruin any of the prints and only seemed to do this drip at the capping station end. I...

Running Flexi 19 subscription and I find the software pretty stable until today. I have a file that is just vector print and cut graphics exported across from Signlab. I guess I made the file from a few older Signlab files and there must have been 3 different blues, but really they are all...

Sounds like a really strange question, and why would anyone want to do that? Here is the reason.... When I purchased a new printer, I had to buy a newer computer and newer software. I gave my old printer, computer and software to my screen printer who I felt needed to get into digital printing...

I only ask as I received an email with mentions that I was found through signs 101... Anna Shackelford [anna@ahealthblog.net] is this person a merchant member? and if not how does she get my email address?
