  1. Need Help coreldraw X8 eps file corrupt

    We have used every version of Corel Draw from 11 through 2019, including X8, and have experienced no such issues with eps files. Somewhere, something installed wrong or is set wrong.
  2. FDC Sign Question

    speaking of hack jobs, most of the premade ones on Amazon look like hack jobs with the letters distorted to the edge of their lives.
  3. Font ID help please

    Washington Becker Black. Originally a URW font, but no longer offered for sale. You can still find it on free sites.
  4. FDC Sign Question

    I've never done an FDC sign on a diamond blank. They have all been white signs with red letters, and a rectangle just a little larger than the letters. 6" letters on a 9x12 if I remember right. But, yeah, seamed on a 24" sign is a bit odd.
  5. number sequence

    It's a lot easier in Corel Draw because it can all be done within Corel Draw. But in Illustrator you can use Excel and do a data merge. Google sequential numbering in illustrator and you'll find numerous Youtube videos showing how.
  6. Font ID Please

    Anyone recognize this font? Tried the usual methods to no avail.
  7. Laminator not pushing down hard enough? Black ink looks grey....fingerprints

    I wouldn't use a heat gun. Too much risk of overheating when you try to cover a large area like that. Just a hair dryer would do. We don't usually worry about the minimal amount of silvering we get with our GBC laminator, but we try to keep our work area around 65-70 degrees in the winter. More...
  8. Onyx encountering anti-virus

    The window you posted is not from antivirus. It's Windows User Account Control. You should only see that in PosterShop if you are trying to run it as an Administrator, which is not the normal behavior for the PosterShop icon. It normally runs as a non-administrator user. You only need to run as...
  9. Font ID help please

    Looks like Baskerville Serial Medium that's been stretched a little
  10. Laminator not pushing down hard enough? Black ink looks grey....fingerprints

    That's called silvering, and with time and warmth it will go away. If you don't normally experience it, it's probably because it's cold now. The adhesive of the laminate can't flow because it's too cold.
  11. Need Help Media profiles - Onyx/Epson S80600

    The procedure for importing the media profile into Onyx is very similar to the video above. But you should have an icon at the top of your production window that says "Media Manager". Open that, and then go to Media Library and then import the profile using the import button. On the printer you...
  12. Air dancer / sky dancer

    Do you mean a wacky waving inflatable arm tube man?
  13. script font has me stumped

    Looks a lot like Murray Hill
  14. Local Competition

    The annoying thing about our small town is that although competitors like that ARE weeding themselves out, it takes usually 4-5 years to happen, and before they are gone, another pops up just like them.
  15. Need Help Any R/C Molders or anyone that wants to help!

    I think the executive summary is that RC model airplane enthusiasts have been quietly having fun for a very long time without bothering anyone and now millennials with their drones and Youtube videos have come along and screwed everything up.
  16. Help with letter mounting

    When you get the mounting blocks, just cement them onto the backs of the letters in appropriate places. Then mount short studs in all the blocks, and with the paper pattern resting on a slightly yielding surface, press each letter over the outline. If you are able to punch the studs through the...
  17. end of support for windows 7

    The support ending primarily means no more Windows security updates. Depending on how she uses computers, that could lead to getting viruses/malware if an exploit comes along that would need a patch to prevent. Given the history of Windows XP it can also mean that in a year or two her antivirus...
  18. end of support for windows 7

    Yes. Use the media creation tool to either make a DVD or a thumb drive for install. Disconnect the internet and run the upgrade. When it's done, reconnect the internet, let it find as many drivers as it can, and then manually install what it misses.
  19. end of support for windows 7

    If you want to do a clean install it's still free. As I said "if you're computer savvy", which means you know how to check to see if there are drivers for your hardware. Though sometimes install stalls because Windows 10 Setup tries to find drivers on the internet and just stalls out, the...

    I was just being funny.
