  7. Question Can anyone make a Lacryl color for us?

    We need a quart or a gallon only. Glantz has a 4-gallon minimum for the color match we need. We're looking for someone with a mixing station that can make a smaller quantity. We will, of course, pay for shipping and handling and hazmat fee in addition to your charge for the color. Or, maybe...
  8. Type manager for Win 10

    I know the subject of type managers has been discussed before. But now that we all have got Windows 10 at our shop, I'm looking for something that might be better than what I had before. I'm looking specifically to print a booklet showing groupings of categories. What do you like and why...

They installed about 400 lineal feet of laminated prints on a block wall before they had to stop using the tool...

  18. Color Rendering Of Reverse Channel Letters?

    Sometimes I like to make a rendering of reverse channel letters that shows not only the daytime view but also the view at night of the halo effect characteristic of reverse channel letters.
