For some reason, my newly upgraded SignLab 9 doesn't seem to handle the plain text files as well as prior versions. It merges data from tab delimited Excel files without any problem. JB

1) Set up your text file in your text editor, MS Word or MS Excel (my preferred method). In Excel, save as a tab delimited .txt file. Each LINE will contain the same two numbers, and each following line of text will be one digit sequentially higher. 2) Place two separate lines of text...

Hey...I figured it out after several minutes of tinkering. JB

Here's an interesting subject: Is it possible to do identical sequential numbering two different places on a single layout? We do a lot of sequential numbering in just one place using merged data via the "badges" function and we have that part mastered. My question: Is it possible...

Anything hand-written and hand-addressed is a rarity these days and we are capitalizing on that. We made some custom thank you cards with our logo embossed on the front, and we send them as a reminder that we appreciate their business. It only takes five minutes to jot a few lines, yet the...

When we ordered our new PC, we had a serial card installed just for this very reason. Hang in there. I'm sure Tony will be along shortly. He's always been helpful for us. JB

Ross and crew at CCB are the best. JB

If it's a SignLab (.VEF) font, you will NOT be able to use it in Corel, no matter where it's stored. If you need to go back and forth between two programs, create the text in its native program and export. Remember to make backup copies for future editing since text is converted to curves (or...

Beautifully cast type, bitterly cast into the river... typecasting in the truest sense. Finding the molds would be the holy grail. JB

Ebonics always takes a hard rap, but there are plenty of other reasons. I believe it's just society in general. You don't have to go back very many generations to understand how far we've come...or perhaps slipped. Much of the language we use today is slang (or derived from it), which...

Typically hot stamping. JB

Roughly 90% of our work deals with sequential numbering or individual fields of data being merged into an image file. We use both Gerber Omega and SignLab. SignLab's "badge" function is hands-down the absolute very best...no questions about it. I layout my template, and then with a few...

The simple fact that ink and media have an odor is proof they outgas.

Vegetarians need not apply... JB

Doh.... I just noticed that I used the word "copy" in my post above. This is 100% original software CD and dongle. Not a copy. Sorry for the confusion. JB

I have a copy of SignLab 7 Vinyl for sale. Program is on CD with USB dongle. $350.00, and includes free shipping within the lower 48 states. Please PM for details. From what I understand, this will only work on Windows XP and lower. I've been told that it will NOT work on WIN 7. Due to...

Well...that was easier than I thought. Up in the top left corner, there is a drop down tab "Organize" that has the window layout settings. I'm sure this might help somebody else, though. JB

Somehow, I've inadvertently changed a global setting on Win 7 and now all my folders open as split pane windows. The folder contents are shown in the left pane and a preview is shown in the right pane. How do I change it back so all my folders open as one window with no preview pane...
