We get it all the time. Some grays get red as well. It's the HP's achilles heel if you ask me. I've spent hours on the phone with their engineers too...they get the same print colors we do, and that color is purple. I've only been able to help it by tweaking the magenta and cyan as noted...

I've had no issues printing on 3751RA using the Oracal 3951 profile. But, that's on an L25500 and Flexi, so YMMV.

I LOVE the municipalities that require SE drawings for a simple post and panel job. $200 to an engineer to tell me how deep to dig and exactly how much concrete to use + $150 permit fees for a $600 sign.

Sweet, thanks.

Ha, true. But seriously, it's a cool brush type font that I'd love to have.

What font is that?

Yep, the Supress Options box was checked for exporting. Unchecked opened another window where you can set PDF's to scale down to letter size, 72 dpi. Now I have normal sized proofs to email. It was driving me nuts finding where to change the PDF output settings. With that supress options...

Found the problem.

Yup.

Rapid Tac 2 is far better than the original version in 50* temps. It can still be tricky though. For cold weather apps, I prefer to use an air release vinyl and apply dry.

+1 on Signamerica for an east coast shop. High quality stuff, there are cheaper options for sure, but the quality is nowhere near what they put out.

Never seen 123rf before, but, like shutterstock, yearly subscriptions are too expensive.

We are currently in a 1 year subscription to imageclub10. I'm finding it OK at best in regards to photos, but really annoyed at their sales tactics. They have auto billed us and sent additional CD packs we do not want and call here a few times a week telemarketing more crap. I can't stand...

I submit this guy....can't believe his doors are still open. http://www.ameriquick.com/ Not only is the website awesome, his designs are stellar. Classic case of words on a substrate are all that's needed for some.

I've been tossing around the idea. Did some really cool seminars last year...just not sure I want to drive 7 hours each way to spend a few days in AC again. It is a really small show.

Mactac makes a wall wrap that takes the paint off when removing it from the block. Lifetime outside is short, but inside, temp controlled, I've seen it last years. Of course, overall roughness of the wall determines lifespan, even indoors. 3M also has good stuff. haven't tried Oracal yet...

I'm with Jill, this area is full of hacks doing it for less. We just got burned recently because we broke our golden rule...no designs without money. We did tons of design for a client we were trying to get and he took that design and found someone to do it for less and didn't have the...

Typical banner stands are so cheap. The cost of renting one for 3 days plus the graphics would be equal to or more than just buying one. Unless you're renting for $10 a day or something, and at that point, why bother?

Add Cooper Black and you got the Trifecta of hack shop design.

Northstar Flag does really good work, as does Eder and Valley Forge.
