The Berne Convention of, if memory serves, 1886 specifically addresses this question. The creator of something owns the rights to that something unless the rights are specifically ceded. Even with AI output, the person that created the output owns the rights to it.

as far as rivets specifically I'd opt for dry. In general, which means there's a non-zero probability of exceptions, those unsure of their skills apply wet, those comfortable with their capabilities apply dry.

The reason that you should round all corners is because on a sharp corner there necessarily a point where the vinyl is thicker that it is wide. It's here that the vinyl will fail. The same principle applies to width of lines.

It's only an 'industry standard' because Adobe gives their stuff to school, students use because there is no choice, use Adobe or use nothing. They've never seen anything else thus they get turned loose on the world thinking that Adobe is all there is and therefore must be some standard or...

Nonsense. I've been in the sign business for well over 50 years and have never, as in ever, felt any need whatsoever for Adobe. Flexi and Corel have been more than adequate for my needs since I got into vinyl in 2002. If you're looking for some magic bean that will make things easier, there...

Even Attila, whether sacking or relaxing, can't see both sides at once. But, if you must know, here's how it's done. 1. Roll out sufficient media so the when the leading edge becomes the trailing edge, all media sensors will be satisfied. 2. Make a mark on the edge of the media at some...

So what if you're a little off, just like a vehicle, no one can see both sides at once.

Let's say I have a bitmap of a rectangular label for a cylindrical bottle. I need to bend this bitmap label to look like it's actually on the container. If it were just a straight-ahead view there would be no need but it's not a straight-ahead view. The label image is too complex to transform it...

Always charge for media unrolled not media actually used. That notwithstanding, this is the basic unit of a good price model. media cost per quantifier. All else is simply overhead and should be allocated based on volume of media required. Be careful of trying to set your price based on how much...

Good advice, except that the probability of me buying another printer are roughly the same as the pope converting to judaism coincident with a full planetary alignment.

I have a Mutoh 1204 printer that's pretty much dead. I have no intention of fixing it, it's time to retire. Pretty sure it's in need of a new head, at least. No matter, it's free to whomever wants to haul it off including 3 unopened ink cartridges and a fully functional take up reel. The printer...

That would be a concern but that's easy to test. I did and it doesn't. It's those things you never thought about that jump up and bite you in the cojones. It's those things I worry about.

My faithful old Mutoh VJ1204 printer died earlier this week leaving me in desperate need of three canvas prints. I can get them locally for a ridiculously low price but they would be aqueous, not solvent. I need to know if coating these prints with plain old smell-my-butt Hobby Lobby matte...

You are correct. If I had it to do over again I would have appended to the phrase "Now you have a collection of the actual colors available to you" the words "at this time".

The only time I print with the heads down is when I forget to raise them. If one prints 'nicer' that the other you might consider diddling with whatever profile you're using. Here in my shop I only user 1 profile for everything. I used to have 2 but 1 of them went away due to lack of interest...

Don't worry about them and someday you might want to replace them. For the nonce, if the machine is printing OK, just leave it be. I've been running a 1204, which has the exact same pinch rollers, missing one set of 4 rollers as are you. Worse, these are the first four pinch rollers on the...

No it's not. There isn't any 'standard'. If you went to school to try to learn how these sorts of things are done then Adobe is the only thing they use because Adobe gives it to them. Students get to thinking that there isn't anything but Adobe.

Run away. If whatever you rig were to come loose or fall on someone, you'll be liable. Not worth it.

Gino is correct, I do this sort of thing all of the time. I use either 100% rag paper and/or canvas. The actual brand of paper depends on how much snob appeal you're seeking. I'm currently wrangling an old Mutoh 1204 48" eco-solvent printer. I seldom load anything more than 30" media but, on...

One premium app tape is as good as any other. Note that as stated above, you pull the backing off the mask, not the mask off the backing. To cut out your product either print or cut, depending, small reg marks at the top/bottom or left/right of each column or row to be cut. Then cut from reg...
