  1. Deep Thinkers

    Absolutely profound!
  2. Badging in Signlab

    That would work. Row 1 cell 1 goes on the first line of the badge, row 1 cell 2 goes on the second line of the badge. Repeat the process for each badge.
  3. Badging in Signlab

    We use the badge feature about 99% of the time, and there is no need to use two text files. Matter of fact, I don’t think it will let you merge two files. The badge feature uses a “tab delimited” function to separate each line of text in your badge. Each time you hit the tab button in a...
  4. 8-31-13 Deadline for Adobe/Corel Crossgrade

    Well...heck. I just checked the web page and it expires the 30th (tomorrow) and not the 31st. Anyway, it is what it is. JB http://www.corel.com/corel/pages/index.jsp?pgid=14900014&storeKey=us&languageCode=en
  5. Fine arts vs. Graphic arts majors

    Yes to what everybody says. JB
  6. 8-31-13 Deadline for Adobe/Corel Crossgrade

    Ooops...you got me on that one. The customer representative told me "tomorrow" (Friday) was the deadline, and I suspect you can't order via telephone if they're not open Saturday the 31st. Online orders shouldn't be a problem. I would like to give a great big shout out to Corel for allowing...
  7. 8-31-13 Deadline for Adobe/Corel Crossgrade

    Adobe users can get Corel X6 Suite for the upgrade price of only $189.00 but the deadline is tomorrow 8-31-13. Read about it here:http://apps.corel.com/lp/cs/eu/index.html
  8. Sign Software and OTF special features

    Gerber Omega 5 has what appears to be a "character map" of sorts that allows you to access ligatures. I've used it several times, but have since forgotten how to access it since we mostly use Illustrator. JB

  10. buy it before its gone?

    Back in May (2013), after a small snag with the CC trial, I scrapped the idea of the cloud and asked them for a perpetual CS6 upgrade for my Illustrator CS5. I ordered it as a download directly from Adobe. Here's the kicker: YOU HAVE TO ASK THEM FOR IT ON THE TELEPHONE. They don't advertise...
  11. Need some help

    Chalk or Cezzane
  12. Made the 6pm news again....

    When I was in elementary school in the early 70s, our school had four doors...each facing all four directions. When I got to middle school, we had dozens of doors, and likewise with high school. No AC in those days, so each class had open windows and open doors...lots of them. Those days are...
  13. Fonts were substituted while importing a PDF or AI file into Omega 4.0

    Have the customer (or their designer) convert to curves for you. JB
  14. Hartco sandblast resist doesn't want to play. Any suggestions?

    We use Hartco 310 and cut thousands of sandblast masks for engraved bricks every year, and we also have the same issue. The issue you are having results from the material "floating" on the backing paper. When the cutter comes around to complete the cut, the letter or punctuation mark moves...
  15. thinking of selling business

    This is a golden answer. But it's also the golden question every entrepreneur should ask themselves on day #1 when they open their business. Even if you're a one-man-show, you should begin by building systems that will sustain growth and create value. In all honesty, it doesn't take that...
  16. Pretty cool idea...

    The man in the video is incompetent with a saw horse and yet they let him use a circular saw. Not the kinda guy I want showing up on my driveway. JB
  17. How often does this happen to you..............??

    That's a very good idea. I also scan a PDF of the customer's paperwork just for safety. To help tame the "paper monster" that quickly appears on my desk and in the shop, I've color coded all my paperwork so I can quickly narrow my search when looking for something. Quotes are orange, work...
  18. Newest member of our sign family

    Congratulations on the new blessing. Looks like you'll now be "wrapping" baby buns on daily basis. I miss those days...hold tight, they go way too quickly. JB
  19. Wireless router and adverse health effects

    I may be opening a can of worms on this one, but has anybody else experienced any adverse health effects from their wireless routers? (headache, lethargy, depression...etc.) I don't spend enough time on a cell phone to notice problems with it, but my wireless router sits less than 24 inches...
  20. It was time to upgrade my cutter but now I am pretty lost ;)

    Welcome to the sand lot. You may have dressed for the little league game, but please understand you'll be attempting to hit against some major league pitchers around here. Yep, it's a whole new ball game, one rewards hard work and perseverance. Hang on and have fun. JB
