nono... make the PDF any way you want, then afterwards... if you have acrobat 7, just go to Advanced --> PDF Optimizer. From there it has options to downsample image resolution, flatten transparency, simplify vector stuff, and clean up unneeded data or invisible objects. Works great. It's rare...

Kind of neat, the USB switching thing. But wouldn't be able to use it between home and office I guess?

lol GAC =) Rep: don't take it personally, I don't think anyone was really yelling at you. It turned into a discussion about piracy and program cracking. That's just the direction the conversation took, and it would have taken that direction if I or you or anyone else asked about dongle...

We had an old encad and it banded like a fiend, the trick was to do what Fast Time said :) It gets faint banding if it hasn't been manually cleaned around the print heads in a while. Right after cleaning it'll go away. Otherwise there isn't any. I'm surprised it can be a simple software...

for just "ROCKIT", this is pretty close if you tilt it like 25 degrees: http://www.myfonts.com/fonts/larabie/vipnagorgialla/vipnagorgialla/ I've seen this font around, I think the guys in the myfonts forum will ID. I think it might even be another larabie font.

This problem, and the "could not complete the requested operation" error, are often memory issues. It may go away if you close some stuff. I've also seen it fixed by just reducing the total number of fonts (if you have thousands), and by deleting the illustrator preferences file, or removing the...

Sometimes the error isn't illustrator's fault and is related to a bug with adobe version cue. You might find it helpful to follow these steps for version cue removal+reinstall. http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=kb403266&sliceId=1

I found this link helpful in explaining out of gamut stuff: http://mrprepress.wordpress.com/2007/11/27/in-the-out-of-gamut-color-space-no-one-will-hear-you-scream/ Basically you will have trouble with a few very specific colors, and the closer to those colors you are, the worse it will be. Some...

There is another way, no guarantees that it's faster than your solution... Deselect everything and then use the white arrow to carefully click on the points of the path you want to change, without accidentally clicking the white-box-with-vertical bar that is used to represent the type on a...

Dunno if this applies your particular machine, but on our graphtec, what I did was just overlap a bunch of circles in the design software and have it keep cutting into the same groove like 10 times. It cut consistently on that line each time. You can get it to the point where you can sort of...

So you're gonna do what Techman's hinting at and move to mongolia, ya? Juuuuust kidding. (that's actually just meant to rib techman a little - doesn't matter that there might be some backwards country where it's legal. We don't live there and neither does the russian dude) I think any company...

AAHAHAHHAHAHAAJAHAAH *GASP* I go to check out the attached photo just for kicks, even though it's been solved, and I see my own design. I did the design for them though they ended up doing the graphics elsewhere. So I can confirm it's fairfield and fairfield swash. The rest are aachen, A&S...

The "Attack of the show" is digital sans. http://www.myfonts.com/fonts/ef/digital-sans/ef-bold/

Basically, dongles are tough to crack, and services like "Soft Key Solutions" do the work for money, which is super sleazy and illegal. I'd be less offended if they did it for free =) I wouldn't use their service simply because even if my intentions are good (to make a backup), THEIR intention...

minor addition: the ITC version of serif gothic was remade by a few companies. The original from itc themselves has that "t". http://www.myfonts.com/fonts/itc/serif-gothic/

I think it is a custom handmade logo. I don't think there's a font. I might be wrong. The best place to find out is http://www.myfonts.com/WhatTheFont/ If it's a font, the people in their forum will know for sure.

something you didn't mention is whether you gave it a good manual cleaning around the heads with cotton swaps and that clear stuff that breaks down dried ink... If I go a while without doing that, my prints get more and more banded, and immediately after doing that it's fine. Not sure how it...
