  1. Using vinyl on single color print.

    What kind of ink? Vinyl ink is not the same as corro ink is not the same as plastisol. At any rate, immediate cleanup should always be number 1 priority, or at least returning the screen to a useable state!
  2. Font ID pleaaaaaaaaaaaase

    Happy to report I didn't use that font yesterday! The client wanted a routed timber sign 'like the old rotten one'. I switched Algerian for one of the LHF collection-(can't remember which right now!)
  3. Multiple copies of a PDF on one page?

    Sorry to hear that it didn;t work... Normally if you wanted say three copies of a multi-page file, and you checked 'collate' (or sometimes 'booklet') it'll print pages 1,2,3,4,5, 1,2,3,4,5, 1,2,3,4,5, in that order, but if collate was not checked, it should print 1,1,1, 2,2,2, 3,3,3, 4,4,4...
  4. Multiple copies of a PDF on one page?

    I would have thought that any decent printer program could do what you wanted: if you selected multiple copies (2), and uncheck 'collate', then check 'multiple pages per piece of paper' or equivalent. The main thing is to make sure 'collate' is not turned on-that should give you your required...
  5. What font to use ?

    I prefer Bucksigns' design... Your last one doesn't really say 'class' to me, sorry! (Pat's comment re calligraphic scripts Vs signpainter scripts is totally right.)
  6. logo critique

    Design it in black & white, FIRST! No effects, no textures. Just B & W. If that works, a few effects will possibly help it, but design it in B&W first. (P.S Studio 440-that diamond plate comment was meant as a joke, by the way...)
  7. 2 fonts needed help please

    Nothing like helping to spread the word, or the cautions, Si! I hated it before it became popular & overused!
  8. 2 fonts needed help please

    And some more examples of its overuse: http://bleedingcowboy.tumblr.com/page/2 http://www.farcethemusic.com/2011/02/scourge-of-bleeding-cowboys.html
  9. 2 fonts needed help please

    Just for Bob (and btw, I agree!), here's a Facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/pages/People-for-The-Destruction-of-The-Bleeding-Cowboy-Font/134243879940548
  10. Frosted Job

    Frosted is a pain to get looking good if done dry!
  11. Font ID Please

    Then maybe you need to keep looking then till you find an optima that does look like that. (The word 'Thanks' might assist your feedback too.) I'm not going to offer you any more ideas, sorry. Download optima and make your own variation of it then if my idea isn't good enough. It's not that...
  12. Font ID Please

    How precise do you need to be? Looks like Optima Bold to me...or some variation of that with deeper concave ends. It should be a relatively Windows standard freebee. I remember buying a CD of about 200 good and 'proper' TTF fonts back in the Windows 3.1 days, for about $12, and it came on that.
  13. pnc 1000a solenoid needed

    I don't think Roland changed much in the plotter-blade holder & solenoid department over 10+ years. If you get nowhere with the seller, you could possibly consider winding a new solenoid yourself, if you're that way inclined? I'm sure it's not much more than a glorified coil of wire around a...
  14. 6 mil "dibond" (like material) vs CNC

    Did exactly what you ask, for a lot of 'please keep the gate shut' signs for a local school. After 18 months, the black plastic core faded to a light grey colour-and looked pretty poorly. Not good!
  15. Looking For A CNC Router

    ^^^ (like!) ;)
  16. Dave Drane...

    Well, Dave's funeral was attended by over 350 friends including a handful of Letterheads today. Many wanted to speak, but speakers were limited to just four, to keep it short, and there was time for more talking afterwards. He was a lovely & great bloke. Many spoke of his crazy sense of...
  17. Dave Drane...

    To all Letterheads & friends, I've just received a message from Liddy Drane. She says: Hi - there is no gentle way of telling you this but Dave came off his Harley last night and unfortunately didn't survive. Our family and friends here in Oz have been wonderful but like me are trying to get...
