I ordered the Pro Vehicle Outlines "Car & Truck 2008" edition -just the "2D" version. I was told the company who now distributes the PVO collections is working on making their 3D applet into a Photoshop plug-in (for the extended version of Photoshop). The goal is to have a 3D model that updates...

It might be a little late to mention it. For a previous project made over a year ago I found authentic Boy Scout logos within PDFs at the Boys Scouts of America web site. Resources like Brands of the World often have inaccurate knock off logos instead of the real things. Some of the logo...

I'm attending a design lab in Oklahoma City all day tomorrow. I'll look for some additional feedback & opinions on the topic of vehicle outlines while there before making a purchasing decision. I'm mainly trying to make a better quality resource isn't being overlooked just from never having...

I'm considering ordering an updated vehicle outline package and leaning towards the Pro Vehicle Outlines "Car & Truck 2008" edition. However, I was wondering if there is any other competing auto libraries that are better (more accurate depictions, larger number of vehicle models, etc.). Corel...

The font used in the attached example looks an awful lot like a compressed version of Franklin Gothic. But there's parts of it that just don't fit. The top stem on the lower case "g" is different from the Adobe, Monotype and Bitstream versions of Franklin Gothic I have. The top part of the...

Figured out what it was: A very squished version of Adobe Sans MM -one of the basic fonts embedded into Adobe Acrobat. Got the customer to send me a PDF. Bodoni Poster Compressed was the actual font, but it was not embedded into the PDF. And someone else sent a print of the PDF that way, with...

News Gothic Bold Extra Condensed is close, but not correct. This typeface is more curvy (less squared) and less monotone in stroke (greater degree of thick and thin parts).

Just like the subject says, I have a project involving a font that kind of looks like a cross between an extra condensed version of News Gothic and something else like Clearface. I can't figure out what it is. I tried the attached file at My Fonts "what the font" utility, but didn't get...

I'm a little dumbfounded as to what font was used in the attached JPEG image. At first I thought it was something like Serpentine Sans or some other common square-ish style typeface. No luck. Have a feeling the actual font used is from a freebie, non-commercial font site, but don't know for...

I don't often ask for font ID help since I'm usually pretty good at identifying the things for myself, but this one just has me drawing a blank. The attached sample is what I used at MyFonts "What the Font" tool (didn't have any luck there). And it's bugging me because I think I've even used it...

Roland has its own process color swatch library that can be easily added into CorelDRAW or Adobe Illustrator. You can create custom palettes of your own in either application, and need to so at least for the case of adding cut lines into artwork (via a custom "cut" spot color). VersaWorks...

It's a little unfortunate since your shop is Mac-based, but that isn't the end of the world. Although Apple has done all it can to support the stereotype that most creative work happens on Mac hardware the company never overcame the fact the sign industry and outdoor advertising industry is...

I have two questions: 1. Is your Illustrator layout set in CMYK or RGB? 2. What kind of spot colors are you using? Normally CorelDRAW has little trouble at all maintaining spot colors, such as Pantone Solid/Coated, in an imported CMYK .EPS file saved from Adobe Illustrator. Same goes for...

What kind of printer (and inks) are you using? Certain ink and material combinations require longer wait/cure/dry times than others. You might be waiting as little as an hour for one kind of print and waiting over a day for another.

If I bought one of these Wacom monitors, I'd have to cough up the big bucks to get the 21UX version. The 12WX may only be $999, but you're also only getting 1280 X 800 native pixels. That's just not enough for my liking. The 21UX sports 1600 X 1200 native resolution -a much more productive level...

I've been looking through the documentation on our new Roland VP-540 printer and trying to find some info about cut settings for different kinds of material. The default setting in the printer works great for basic print/cut operations. But I can't get a clear answer on what force setting works...

I don't know how many others in this forum use the Seal 54Base 54" laminator. I'm looking for tips on how best to use this machine in regards to its very sensitive safety sensors ahead of the rollers. This is a really good lamination machine, but if a print lifts up at all as it is being fed...

Sorry for not responding back earlier. I think I have the printing issues pretty much solved. The biggest culprit causing the issues were two little rubber tabs inside the machine near where the print heads pick up ink. After a couple of weeks worth of pretty serious use, these tabs had started...

Looking for advice from other Roland VersaCamm owners, particularly those who use the new VP-540. I'm trying to find a solution for getting proper looking prints on 3M 180C Controltac material when printing to it with our new 54" Roland VersaCamm VP-540 printer. The printer works great on a...

Thanks for the help! Scriptina is definitely the source of that "R" -despite the alteration in that straight segment.
