  1. Question Using SignLab 9 with VersaWorks 6 Challenges

    Seeing if anyone else is in this position and what's the best way to make it work. For years have been running SignLab 9 with VersaWorks on a VS540. I added a Roland VG2 and it won't run with VersaWorks that comes with SignLab 9. So I added VersaWorks 6. After using the SignLab built-in link...

  3. Roland Versaworks Ink Saturation

    Is there a simple way to increase the ink rather than going through all the profiles to see what each one does? I know I can make minor adjustments in each CMYK to tint, but looking to see if there's a better way. I'm printing red on silver metallic and would look better if I could apply more...
  4. Mouse delay / sticks with Signlab

    SignLab w/ Versaworks VS540 Roland I just ran the built-in Color Chart Type 1 in VersaWorks, selected the colors I wanted. Added them to my graphic. When I printed it, it was not even close. All 3 colors of blue are 3 different purples. Any ideas? Thanks, Steve
  8. Can't use CMYK files

    Anyone know the trick to print CMYK files from Signlab 9 to Versaworks / Roland? If the file goes from Signlab, it shows up black in Versaworks. If opened directly into Versaworks, it's fine. Something is happening in Signlab that I can't figure out. Any ideas? Thanks

  17. Font ID Programs

    Years ago I remember messing around with a program called Font Detective. You scan a letter and it supposedly tracks it down for you within your own fonts (or whatever you have that is close). I didn't do much with it then, but think I still have the software. Does anyone use it or is there a...
