  1. The dreaded double cut issue

    so with new boxes created for cutlines it worked....has to be a Flexi problem. If you had a double cut would it not make sense that if you delete one box that a second will remain...that was not so, therefore it is a glitch!!!
  2. The dreaded double cut issue

    Yes they were...I did unmask the first layer to seperate all the individual decals but left them masked as individuals. I decided the size of the cut box...if they were masked there is no way it had a cutline identical to the one I created
  3. The dreaded double cut issue

    I have never used that option...in fact I have never even seen it lol reset the cut square...stepped and repeated... deleted old cut and realigned everything grouped to the new cut line... we shall see what happens
  4. The dreaded double cut issue

    OK client has pdf files with multiple pages, but that is not important here... the files are just the graphics with no outer box. I created the box in Flexi and the stepped and repeated the boxes to cover all the decals and then actually aligned each decal up to be centre /centre in each cut...
  5. The dreaded double cut issue

    I set the cut line up in Flexi for about 900 small individual decals and then painstakingly aligned each decal into the cut boxes. Now it is cutting and it cuts the box one way then reverses direction and cuts it the opposite way... to me that sort of indicates the way it would cut something...
  6. default job properties issue

    thanks for that link
  7. default job properties issue

    This happens when sending from Rip and Print. I just want to go in and make changes when a job is sent out for print so I don't have to continually change it in the rip box in Flexi. A proper user manual would be great to sort this stuff out.
  8. default job properties issue

    In production manager I click on the printer and the job properties opens but we cant switch tabs or make any changes...why is this happening? If you look at the pic you can see that the tabs are being slightly covered by the box in front...when I first opened this file it was not obstructing...
  9. Mimaki Set SS1-INK?

    If there are chips on the ink cartridges you might need to switch them out. I have experienced the odd issue with chips telling me different things when it was not true. I have not seen this set clean tool ever in all the time I had my jv3. You said ss1 inks, My Mimaki used ss2...I wonder if...
  10. van lettering should i go with the molding line or use a level?

    There is one vehicle I have worked on that is near impossible to define a body line as there are none. It is those bubble cube vans. You just have to be patient and set the graphic up and stand back and decide visually if it will work.
  11. Mimaki Set SS1-INK?

    Are you using third party inks?
  12. van lettering should i go with the molding line or use a level?

    Perfect example of what not to do
  13. Pantone colors chart ??

    What I meant by the comment was...First off, how do they come up with a cmyk value for a pantone colour? If it were some form of automated process then I could understand the huge color shifts from color to color, but if it is done visually by testing different cmyk percentages, then I say the...
  14. Pantone colors chart ??

    I have the bridge chart and I honestly question some of the color differences between the real pantone color and the cmyk version. Most are so out of whack I really don't understand how they formulate the cmyk versions and call it a match.
  15. Interesting dilemma

    But I did match the pantone!!! I'm not going to reprint anything if it was done right!!! Not my fault that they use a pdf file and a computer screen to verify colours. My client won't drop me for this. I have proved to them that the colour is correct...it is their client ( probably some 25...
  16. acrobat reader showing pdf file different in 2 computers

    I always felt that acrobat reader would show me what the real file should like like and now my world has collapsed lol. OK so in my main computer that I use for cutting vinyl and setting files up it looks correct ( I think, based on previous jobs for the same client) but the print computer...
  17. acrobat reader showing pdf file different in 2 computers

    As the title says... so how do I determine which version is correct? It was an ai file with ridiculous masking and one item seems to have flipped to a different position. One comp is win 7 the other win 10. Also what is a cheap program to convert pdf files into high res bitmaps?
  18. How do you manage your color match

    Just curious, once you have chosen the best color match, can you then double click the colour and see the break down of cmyk or once you do that it changes again. In my old photo print I would sometimes just choose a colour off the color templates and then make changes to it. When the...
  19. Flexi 19 color mapping issues

    Do you mean the eps file you create for the mapping has to have the identical name? and if so I assume that also means that once you make the eps file and use it, you can't simply delete the eps later?
  20. How do you manage your color match
