I want to setup a file in my computer, in illustrator cs2, to go to my bosses computer with a versacamm 300 and versaworks rip. How do I setup the file for a contour cut? Right now my file has a JPG of the graphics and a vector outline where I want the cut line to be. Do I create a mask, or...

It may be easier to setup up the site files so they go from Photoshop to Dreamweaver. I wouldn't even mess with linking them. Just setup the pages with the proper names (index.htm) and put everything into the proper files and let them link the pages together in Dreamweaver. Dreamweaver makes it...

Hay George. A good resource for learning CS2 and many other programs is: http://www.lynda.com/ You'll learn fairly quickly with their video training tutorials. I used there videos to learn 3DS max, and it only took me random hours over a few days to have a good understand on how to use...

Does anyone know what happened to InspireXP-PRO? Did they go out of business? I went looking for it the other day and the site is gone. Another member was asking where to find it and I don't know what to tell them. I thought it was a great program and to go out of business so soon. Can't be...

Awesome resource, Thanks....

If anyone else uses Casmate, I'd like to hear what you have to say about it.

It's funny. I was getting online to ask what people here think about Casmate. The head designer at our shop swears by it, and he is out on vacation, so I'm doing his job while he's out and every other time he's on vacation. I can't stand Casmate, there's too many glitches. I can't stand...

I like some of the foundries that were mentioned like signfonts, LHF fonts, and signdna. There are a few more that I thought were worth mentioning, like Font Bureau has a lot of nice basic/standard fonts, Blambot fonts and Comicraft fonts have some cool comic book style fonts, FontMesa fonts...

The only program I know of is Adobe Bridge. If you have multiple files (like a bunch of clipart) you could create a .pdf from multiple files in Adobe Acrobat and just view the images from there.

There's 3D Studio Max : http://usa.autodesk.com/adsk/servlet/index?id=5659302&siteID=123112 3DS I'm sure is way more then you need. Scanvec Amiable has a good program called EnRoute: http://www.scanvecamiable.com/EnRoute8482;_FAMILY30.asp Enroute is used mostly for CNC routing. Another...

You can also find some at SignDNA. http://www.signdna.com/v2/cart/allfonts.php?id=all&gp=-1

I watched them demonstrate this at the ISA show in Orlando. The first guy showed me how it worked on a piece of metal ripped from a new car (with vinyl on it) and it worked great. Then the guy standing next to him went to show my brother how it worked. Picked up a piece of metal from an...

Yes, when you use the "Blending Options" (when you double click on the layer or you click on the "circle F" on the bottom of the layers panel) the effects will alter to the graphics when you delete the unwanted portions. But not when you use any of the filters from the filters menu, including...

The way I do it is. Right click on the text layer and duplicate it. I say duplicate it so you can change the text later on if need be... then right click on the duplicate and click on rasterize layer, then on the raster layer, click "Ctrl-A" and with the arrow keys, click up once and down once...

Just to mention: If they happen to have Corel Suite 12 it comes with Bitstream's FontNavigator. It will install type 1 fonts just by dragging and dropping from any drive....

For sign making in general I think Flexi is the best. but if you can't afford it I would recommend InspireXP Pro. http://www.inspirexppro.com/ Corel and Illustrator were made to work with vector and they do it well, but not specifically for signs. FlexiSIGN, Gerber OMEGA, InspireXP...

Try Sunflower yellow and light gray.

If you want it to be only one color vinyl with the substrate showing through, select all and release compound/ungroup. Then drag the black from your color palette and drop it on the selected area, making everything black. Then make it a compound again and there it is. TO MAKE ITEMS A...
