  1. Adobe Illustrator bitmaps question

    Is there a way to get info on a bitmap in AI- dpi etc? Thanks Gene
  2. How do you profile for reflective and translucent?

    Refl and trans need more color of course to avoid looking washed out. I understand that you can profile for the media- but that would be different, right? Maybe I am having a senior moment but I think I have been approaching this wrong. I am suddenly very confused. Thanks Gene I know that...
  3. Mpls area - anyone profile for $$$

    I have a VP Roland and i1 and use Triangle inx- I have profiled but it is a long procedure and I do not have the time to spend on it. I use Versa works as a rip and also have Wasatch that I do not at this time. I am looking to step up to an XC540 and may go back to Wasatch at that time- so...
  4. MBX vinyl Zapper- new rubber wheels

    I just bought 5 wheels from Grimco which are a different color and we went thru 3 on one cargo van where we normally get a van to each wheel. This is the twelfth identical van we have done- same guy on the same Vinyl Zapper. I called the mfgr and the old ones were made in Taiwan and the new...
  5. Anyone know how fast a VP540 prints?

    I am looking at at an XC540 which prints at 150sf per hour at 720x720 and I can't find what the Roland claimed for the VP540 at that (or any other) rez. Wondering if anyone has that info. Thanks Gene
  6. Flexi gradients in later versions fixed?

    I know that Flexi 7.6 has problems with gradients- has that been fixed in later versions? Thanks Gene
  7. Any thoughts on EstiMate 2011?

    I know- the subscription is not popular, etc. - but is the program better? I often repeat jobs and am having problems finding old files that I want to copy. I have v2.0 and I like it but the customer handling has never excited me. We have 3500 estimate/invoices and it is getting unwieldy...
  8. Font ID please

    customer claims it is Eamon- can find anything like that. Thanks Gene
  9. Bad font ID please

    Anyone recognize this sucker? Thanks Gene
  10. Print on VP and cut on Summa?

    I normally cut my laminated prints on my VP but we are getting busier and busier (also haven't been able to find a used VP300) so I am thinking about cutting the 30" output on one of my Summa t-750s, I think I have seen something about this in the Vworks manual but I can't find it. Is anyone...
  11. PERFECT G12 PRO stack Paper Cutter?

    I am thinking of replacing my old swingarm paper cutter with a 'stack' cutter like the one in the pict. I cut decals into long strips with a razor knife and stack them and cut into individuals. It looks like it might be hard to line up the cuts as the blade is enclosed. Anyone have one...
  12. EstiMate 2011- comments

    I have Estimate v2 and have 2500 files in it. I have just about gotten over my issues with them going to a subscription model- and we are finally making some money and I am thinking about going to EM 2011. Any comments on how you like the improvements in the real world? I know that there is a...
  13. Help with numbers please

    I have tried this on WTF and it came up with Blue Highway- which is the closest I could come up with before I tried WTF- and it is not quite right (the '3' especially. I have been messing with this on and off for a couple days- I have a couple hundred unit #s to do and would buy the font if...
  14. Who checks the classified advertising?

    I check only *very* sporadically and only if I am actively perusing an urge. I would like to see them appear in the new posts search- when new of course. Thanks Gene
  15. Flexi 10 realworld users

    I have used Flexi pro since V4 I think and I love it and it has made me a lot of money. I now use a couple of seats of 7.6 to design and Vworks to rip and have thought of one seat of Designer 10. I am interested in the transparency features of V10- would anyone give their thoughts on that. I...
  16. Font please

    WTFont doesn't recognize it. Thanks Gene
  17. Guillotine cutter

    Does anyone use one of these- looks way better than a normal paper cutter- I think the blade cuts parallel to the paper? I have an old hyd paper cutter from the '40s or '50s that cuts like this (weighs about 1000#) that works great for plastics etc but is s l o w. If it cuts parallel and you...
  18. Bitmap paper prints upsy down and backwards

    I have F7.6 and sometimes when printing to my desktop printer the bitmaps are not as on the screen- is there a workaround and has this ever been corrected in later versions? Sometimes an outline that has not been separated will change to another color in an .eps or jpg also.
  19. Gerber edge half tone for inkjet?

    I have been doing a logo supplied by a customer for years on my edge ( running another $400 worth of Hardhat decals now :loveya:) and it got me to wondering how I could extract the Gerber halftone for use on my VP540. This halftone prints on light gold 220 and sometimes I have to scale it...
