The DRM is what he's referring to by cloud. The app has to constantly check with home or things don't work.

Just screw treated lumber 2x4s to the wall and screw the sign to the lumber. Unless you're talking about individual cut out letters or something. But I cannot see the picture everyone else is talking about.

Pixelated Sans?

Our supplier changed the material and the pressing specifications unannounced last year. The temperatures and times changed. Quite likely yours did too.

If the manufacturer says press at 330, then 300 isn't fully activating the adhesive. In addition, the temperature you set on the dial does not necessarily mean that the platen is that temperature, and it can drift over time.

You can get edge lifting on ACM with cast materials too. We have found that how you treat the cut edges makes a big difference. There is often a ridge on the edge from cutting, and if you don't sand that down before installing the graphics, it will trigger premature vinyl failure.

The image is a bit too low resolution to work well in font matching software. I tried for you. But if I had to bet, I would say that they are A&S fonts. Peruse their website and see. A&S fonts tend not to come up in font matching software or websites.

Whether you're a fan of it or not, the fact is that if you want things to flow smoothly and to get done right, without constant calls and hassles, paperwork is key. The job is not complete until the paperwork is done. I once read that in a toilet stall. It was true there and it is true in real...

I've used it to do channel letter raceways on a few jobs and it's done well enough on that. When I first got it I checked its ability to identify Avery vinyl colors and it was spot on with those.

I use the little Nix to measure colors of things on location, i.e. color of wall to match raceway color. Not sure if the additional features of the more expensive models actually are useful.
