Hi Returning to making stuff part time. I have Omega 2.0 Edge 2 HS15+ and seem to spend a lot of time fighting client supplied .AI files that are too new to import. I have Corel Graphics Suite 12 and thought that I could upgrade to the latest for a lot less ($159.00) than Adobe CS 2 (...

I'm considering selling my Gerber Edge FX and Gerber GSX plus and getting a Versacamm VS-300i (30") instead. 99 percent of my decals are done on clear vinyl and are smaller than 9 inches long. I'm having a tough time getting good quality prints at such small dimensions, plus, the Edge just cant...

I just upgraded from Omega 3.0 to Omega 6.0. Everything works great, except I can't get the PLT files to show their thumbnails in Windows Explorer or through Composer in the Open/Import window. I have an iMac running OS X El Capitan. I run Windows 10 x64 through a virtual machine, VMWare Fusion...

We are using Gerber Omega 5.0 / Art Path with the Gerber Sabre 408 router. We suddenly lost all but 3 of our Art Tool (router bit) presets. Also, we were not able to create and save new tool presets to replace the lost ones. I reinstalled the software and the issue remains. Any help would be...

I like to keep the programs we have up to date. There is a sale on the Omega upgrade 4.0 to 5.0 and I will need 2. They are $350.00+. Is it worth it or should I spend $1000 on something else? (We have a work station too). Thanks, Tina

Hello peeps, I am running Composer software from Omega to run our 60" Summa plotter.It has a security USB dongle which has been damaged and is just holding on by a thread... actually it's duct taped to the computer so it won't move. I am desperately seeking a replacement without having to buy a...

Hi All! I'm in panic mode because I can't find our ancient install disks for Omega PS 1.5 w/artpath. I have my serial dongle still. Does anyone have any ancient copies hanging around they can sell me? Many Thanks- Shane

I have a valid registered Omega 4.0 and use it to run my Edge 1. I design everything in Flexi (have 3 registered versions of that too) and I'm adding another plotter and Edge 2. I don't like the way Flexi outputs to the Edge so I was hoping to buy another Gerber software (older version fine...

Hope anyone can help me import my AI files in Omega - when they are drawn with clipping mask? When I do, the clipping mask are repealed so all the graphics are inside the Omega program. What do you do there? Is there a specific setting that makes the clipping mask remain? See illustrations for...

Hello Everyone, I hope someone has an answer for me. I have window 7 64bit with Omega 2.6 installed and I would like to plot to my CE3000-60 MK2. I am using a USB to Parallel cord to connect the two and so far when I query the plotter I can't get it to connect. I have the drivers installed so...

Hi, I'm would like to purchase a copy of gerber omega 1.56 or similar, I have my own dongle key. If you can help, please send me an e-mail. dave.colas@gmail.com

We are having our first ink jet printer being installed on Tuesday. Since the our first computer (Sprint) till now we've been big Gerber users. Plotters, Edge, Router, etc. We are currently running Omega 2.6. We have always been very happy with it, but we are over due for an upgrade. Now with...

I've started to have some of my files open with everthing as unselectable. NOTHING I do can get any of the objects to select. The objects are NOT locked. The layer is not locked. I have to open a new file and import the "Locked" file, then all is good, and I just save the new file. I did...

All, we are are in the process of swapping from Omega to versaworks with a SolJet Pro3. I am waiting for the vendor to set up the Roland. In the mean time, does anyone know if Versaworks will run the Gerber plotters that we currently have? It's a long story but our stencil capabilities are out...

I have had a Gerber P2C 24" machine for four years and have been using AI to create designs and using Omega software to cut. The USB Key (that must be used to operate the software) has been obliterated (compliments of my 3 year old twins) and Omega states that it will cost $1k to replace it...

Does anyone know if there is a way to tweak the measurement arrows and font sizes for the dimension tool. It works great on large projects but for smaller ones the arrows are just way too big to use. This could be a major, major time saver. Thanks in advance for any help! Mark in West...

Hey guys, I'm a new member to the forum but not quite new to the program. I am currently enrolled in Sign & Display at the Cleveland Job Corps. One of our manuals, the one for Gerber Omega 2.0, has currently gone missing; Whether it's been stolen or misplaced, we don't know. I've tried...

Does anyone know why changing the scanner attached to my computer with my Gerber Omega 1.56 software would cause it to give me an error "an error occurred while accessing your TWAIN scanner (-82) no data source?" The HP scanner that was attached quit working, so I bought a CanoScan LiDE 200...
