If I'm creating a proof like that, I typically make the items smaller so they can be printed on an 8.5x11 piece of paper. If you try to print a big layout, Corel Draw crashes after spinning an hourglass for 10 minutes.
I guess I've never made a sign that big. I checked, and it does exceed the boundaries of the zoom if you go that big. I have Corel Draw all the way back to X6 on this computer, and it's been the same all the way back that far. Looks like it's by design.
I found the zoom out only stopped at a point where the layout was a tiny speck in the middle of my screen. What would be the point of zooming out further than that? I use the scroll wheel to zoom out.
If it take 5 years for that to happen, that is actually good performance for a calendared material. I would consider it normal age-related UV deterioration if it makes it 5 years. That's about how long we get up here.
If you're just cutting letters/shapes out of it, treat it like any other high performance vinyl. It will need application tape for handling.
If you're making large sheets of white vinyl to cover things, then laminate makes it so you can handle it and apply it more easily.
If the issue is uploading to print provider, but you have room to save it on your hard drive, another option is to just export the whole layout as a 150 or 100 dpi jpg.
OK, that works. Thanks so much. Interesting that when the intermediate marks are turned off it also doesn't print the little triangle that points which way the print goes through the plotter.
I don't think it's having trouble because the intermediate marks are there. It has trouble because it reads the end mark and then keeps on going that direction looking for another, spitting the vinyl out the front of the plotter. Unless the cutfile contains information that there are no...
Our 54" plotter is malfunctioning, but it's going to be at least 3 weeks before the replacement comes. In the meantime, I was thinking about using the rotate function in Onyx v. 12 Cut-Server to be able to use our 30" Graphtec plotter while we wait. I can rotate the job, it shows me the feed...
The folder doesn't have to be hot. (Hot meaning a file dropped into it is automatically processed). Just shared is enough. When you export the print/cut file from your design software, save it into the shared folder. Then from the RIP workstation, open the file into the RIP (Onyx in this case)...
