  1. Font ID Please

    Hi All, I know I have this font but the name escapes me. Any help appreciated.
  2. How much to charge for printing?

    Hi, wondering what people are charging for printed & laminated signs. I'm mainly using Concept 701 vinyl and Concept laminate. I was paying $120 per metre for my laminated prints before buying my own equipment last year but this seems way too much after adding labour and the panel costs. Do...
  3. Shafted on a quote, what to do?

    Sounds like it's best to move on but the thing that's frustrating me the most is the bad mouthing they're doing around town about how expensive I am, which isn't the case at all. The guy they went with travels through here every day and everybody used to go to him before I started eight years...
  4. Shafted on a quote, what to do?

    Hi all, I'm sure similar things have popped up plenty of times but I'd love any feedback on this, it's fairly complicated but I'll try to keep it short. Recently I was asked to quote on replacing signs at three offices, one is two doors from me, the others are 30 and 50 minutes away in opposite...
  5. Grommets/Eyelets

    Thanks, last time I just used a stack of the signs to build it up to the right level but hadn't thought of bolting the punch to the table or using stop blocks to get each grommet in the same position, good ideas.
  6. Grommets/Eyelets

    Hi, I'm after any tips on putting grommets in coroplast signs, I've got 800 to do and last time I did it it took forever. Any help appreciated.
  7. Illustrator CC Gradients

    Hi all, I'm having trouble printing a banner, the outline around the word 'trademark' is supposed to be blue at the top and disappearing at the bottom. I tried having a blue to black gradient, and also tried again with a white to black multiply gradient pasted above a solid blue outline but the...
  8. Illustrator CC

    No I hardly ever have strokes on anything. Very frustrating indeed. I thought there would have to be some way around it.
  9. Illustrator CC

    I've just started using Illustrator CC and whenever I place text or objects on a black background (or any dark colour) they appear to have a thin white stroke around them. Is there something in the settings I need to change? Never had this problem before.
  10. PS shape burst in Illustrator

    Trying to find something I've done in the past but it has been a long time. Shape burst allows you to do an outline/stroke and have a gradient so it fades from one colour to another or one colour to transparent, from the inside to the outside of the outline/stroke. Outer glow is similar to...
  11. PS shape burst in Illustrator

    Hi all, Does anybody know a way to do a shape burst outline in Illustrator? It looks so effective in Photoshop but the only way I can do anything similar in Illustrator is outer glow, which isn't that great and usually needs doing twice. Any help appreciated.
  12. For sale signs

    Printed full colour, single sided, not laminated.
  13. For sale signs

    Hi All, I'm quoting on 200 for sale signs (3x2') on coroplast with eyelets. My original quote was $4700 but they got another for $1700 from a company that does these in bulk full time. They print direct to substrate but I'm printing to vinyl then mounting it. It's hard to know how much labour...
  14. Tram Banners/Scrolls

    Hi All, I'm wondering if anybody knows what font/s were originally used for destination banners on trams and buses. A Google search these days mainly shows modern canvas prints and it's hard to know which have been done correctly. Any help appreciated.
