2 options for Corel. Yes, only includes Draw & Photopaint. Photopaint is almost exactly like Photoshop. So much that I use it more often as you can easily edit images with a click of a button then go right back to Draw and press on, no need to re-import etc. 1. subscription $22.42 p/mo 2. One...

We do something similar. We have a dedicated pc & Print Tech for the RIP station. When we first started it didn't take long to see that that it was a pain to interrupt the Tech's mojo just to set up reg marks. Didn't take me long to figure out what parameters were needed for the cutting process...

Not to bad. We have to do this a lot for realtors. Bookmarked now. I use another free online site to OCR text images (I hate typing).

Illustrator can open cdr's up to version 2010. What version are the Corel files?

Saving as pdf then opening in flexi or just opening the ai file? rasterize the pattern?

Probably a media feed issue. You'll never get it "dead on" but.... The longer the print the more off it's gonna be. Have you used some scrap vinyl to check and adjust the media feed?

Hmmm, you need a stone cutter or some place that would have one. As mentioned, check into a headstone business or maybe a landscaping/paver business.

Cut a stencil from "sandblast" vinyl (think it's called resist), apply it then sandblast.

Same stuff here. Luckily I have both illustrator and Acrobat Pro. Usually illustrator won't work if fonts are missing. I can open in Acrobat Pro and use "Flattener Preview", there I can "Convert All Text to Outlines", apply & save with a different name, then import to Corel.

You did laminate the perf, right?

Are the files always pdf? Might try Inkscape (free). that can do crop marks. Don't know about converting the colors though. We print both CMYK and RGB without any problems.

I have no problem with having them all in one file. Actually that's the way I do it too. If the designer was trying to simplify or cut down the file size by creating separate signs, great, but they should be just that, separate. You don't include all the signs in each separate pdf file. When...

Tooltips don't show when hovering over icons. Just curious if it's a setting somewhere or perhaps a workspace change with newer version.

Yes, confirmed that the design was from illustrator. I did, however, fail to mention, rather forgot, that one of the artboards was a 3ftx8ft banner which did have a lot of png images (logos). That, I'm sure, increased the file size too. Also something I would not have done. That banner should...

Thanks for the input. Yeah, that's what I meant, "multiple artboards". Each pdf was meant to be a single 18x24 sign but each one includes all. I'm not an adobe user but as a test I "saved all" from illustrator as a pdf. It made a 28pg pdf at 17MB. Hate to say it but I guess the the designer...

I received 19 third party pdf files each at 11MB. Each are 18x24, all vector art, black background 3-4 words and 1 vector logo. 11MB! Same file saved from Corel is 229k. Only thing I found by opening one of the pdf's in illustrator is that it contains all 19 signs. So I copy 1 sign and paste to...

Am I the only one who stops right there after that statement and screams WHY!!!! Why would any reputable designer design in photoshop?! Photoshop elements, sure, but the design should always be in a vector program. Sometime down the road you're gonna want it slapped on the side of your van/truck...
