Hi all, We've got a cutter hooked up to Flexi Starter. I'm trying to figure out how to insert a glyph into the cut that's included in the font. I asked the good old Google about it and did see someone suggest to just go to "Text > Insert Symbol" menu, however there is no such option under the...

Thanks, good point about cleaning the holder as well. There's a bunch of white residue on the strip from rubbing up against the sandblast stencil but I don't see any damage like cuts of crevices. It's a little rough to the touch though, I'm not sure if a new strip is supposed to be smooth when...

I'm assuming you mean the brown strip the cutting head travels across. It's not been replaced I don't think. Do you have a part number for it? Couldn't find it online. Thanks, I ordered a new knife. I think we did use the specific sandblasting resist knife but may very well need changing.

Hi, We've got an older SummaCut plotter and a D60R, mostly for cutting sandblast resist. The older plotter, I believe, is more geared toward this purpose while D60R - as I understand - is not the best. But it's been a serviceable setup for a while now. However recently the D60R has had problems...

Your CG Century Oldstyle might be that exact font, it's hard to say with the resolution and also not being really an expert in any of this. I'd definitely want to make a test cut with it to see if possible. :) I think the Triumvirate is identical to what's listed on Monotype. That's...

Okay I think I cracked this one by accident. I'm not all that familiar with stencil cutters, it's not my area of expertise, so it didn't even cross my mind. In order to try and find the correct font I had them cut me a stencil, then I went home and printed the various Century Oldstyle characters...

Thanks, I was confused about who actually owns the fonts nowadays so this was helpful. I've send an email through the fonts.com site asking if I'd be able to purchase this particular font. Fingers crossed on that front. Unfortunately the CAS installation media has been lost. I asked about it...

Thank you I appreciate the information. It would appear CASmate is long gone and there's no way to purchase another copy of it to try and mess around with the fonts. The old computer is such a mess now, with its hard drive looking like it's giving in, that trying to extract anything from it is...

Hi, I've been recently tasked with upgrading an old stencil cutting system into the 21st century. I was surprised to see they were running a Windows 98 machine, CASmate and an old Summa plotter. I've managed to set them up hardware wise; a new fast computer, a new Summa, Adobe Illustrator...
