While that is true for both of your companies, many sign shops are just plotters and printers with design not being a main service offered, either because they don't consider it important or that lack the experience. I always have considered design a very important factor in a sign shop as I am...

Raleway, maybe?

But a company that is willing to spend several $1000s on design work isn't going to go to a sign shop to have it done. Some of us deal with local mom & pop businesses. Some of us deal with large companies. Some are in the middle. There's no "across the board" rule for giving design files...

You are the bomb, Fred! This is exactly what I've been looking for! Thank you!!! :notworthy:

Good news, everyone! (Said in Professor Farnsworth's voice ;) It was the cable! I assumed I had a Gerber cable but apparently not. Finally got my Edge up and running again. Thanks so much, Fred, and everyone else who took the time to help. You guys rock!

If they didn't ask you to improve it then don't waste your time because that's all you'll be doing is wasting it. Otherwise, you'll end up making something that's probably way better but they won't go for it and you'll be frustrated. Make their sign, collect the money and move on. I know it...

My cable has all of the pins just like in your pics but it there aren't any markings on the cable indicating if it's a Gerber cable or not. I might as well go ahead get one and give it a shot. I'm totally out of other ideas! Thanks so much for taking the time to help me! :)

Thank you so much, Fred, for taking the time to help me. You have no idea how much I appreciate it. I'll check it out and let you know. :notworthy:

Xarisma.com can print those. They can put a pole sleeve or grommets at the top.

Hey Fred! I know it's been a couple of months since your offer to help but some other things had to take priority for awhile. Now I'm back to trying to figure this out. Any suggestions that you or anyone else has would be greatly appreciated. You are correct - I have a LPT port that the Edge is...

Not solely picking on you, Signmaker1234, but I'll never understand why beginner designers come on here wanting honest critiques but dismiss suggestions from very experienced designers and ultimately stick with their own idea. And then even justify it with "That's what the customer wants". The...

I'm curious as to why they would need to be laminated at all? They're banners. I'm sure there's a good reason that I'm just not aware of so that's why I'm asking.

Yeah, it's seeming like the overhead projector is the most likely way. Excellent link, Pat! Thanks!

Ya know the (seemingly) handwritten chalk board signs that are trendy right now? I've seen them in grocery stores, restaurants, and my favorite fancy liquor store. Are they actually done freehand? I've seen large menu boards with tons of text and thought there's no way someone just slapped that...

I believe Xarisma has the stretchy stuff like that fitted table cover. www.xarisma.com

Like you said, you know electrical and aren't worried about that. Then you *should* be worried about putting up the letters correctly since you've never done it before. Why not give the job to a company with experience in doing this and in exchange, they let you come along and see how it's done...

Finally! Why choose between Comic Sans and Papyrus when you can have both! https://creativemarket.com/blog/2015/03/25/designer-combines-papyrus-and-comic-sans-the-end-is-near

I believe that's Handel Gothic

I have an Etsy shop on the side and we sell sandblasted pint glasses. We tried the cream etching stuff and found out the first try that it doesn't work well at all. Now we use a sandblaster. If you decide to go that route, let me know if you have any questions. I sent the OP a PM offering to...

Definitely this. It's been years since I used it but I would tape some coroplast to the outside of the Edge where the material came out to keep it from clinging to it.
