  1. Can't get Omega running today. Won't launch.

    Tried not using the shortcut launch icon and going to "all programs", etc. Tried re-starting. Do I need to re-load the program? What is the most common cause of this sort of thing? Any help appreciated.
  2. Weird error message in PhotoShop..all you experts please help.

    Tried opening a file sent to me by client. It's a one meg .tif file. In PhotoShop an error message pops up that says, "could not open because an unexpected end of file was encountered." Haven't seen this one before. I've got an old version of PS. (7.0) Is this the problem? (I know, I know...
  3. Would like to locate clipart pertaining to logging

    It can be of the cartoon variety or more in the illustrator style. Should be good, clean, line artwork. (fills and gradients ok) Any suggestions? It's kind of hard to find, I'm finding.
  4. Font I.D. please

    Should know it, but I don't.
  5. Rookie question about print speeds on Roland SP-540V

    When I select a specific media type, all print speeds (quality) are greyed out except for Standard. This isn't the case for non-specific media types. For example: When I select the profile for Orajet 3651 they're greyed out. Alternatively, if I select a generic profile such as Generic Vinyl 1...
  6. Here's a head scratcher for you Omega users.

    Ok, finally updated and got 2.61 loaded. But where before I could enter text in Omega, export as .ai, and open that text in Adobe PhotoShop 7.0, I can no longer do it. I've tried exporting simple shapes as a test and they'll open fine in PS. So I thought maybe it had something to do with the...
  7. I got fooled!

    Ok, went out and had coffee at Mickey's this morning to get all jacked up to load new software. (after hemming and hawing for months trying to decide, I finally bought Omega's latest and greatest, (two copies) DHL delivered the bright yellow and red box a week ago. But I didn't open it. I...
  8. Plotter Art Seamless Texture tiles....just got it!

    Looks like Fred's Seamless Texture tiles is a winner! Came today and I'm messing with it. Comes with full color pages and it's own full size binder. Handy user's guide in the front too. Great job Fred. I'm happy.
  9. Gerber Sales Team update.

    Ok, on the 12th I posted that I'd responded to a solicitation from Gerber on the 7th of November and that no one had gotten back to me in a weeks time. Some of you said that it might take some additional time since my response would more than likely get forwarded to a distributor. Well, now...
  10. Omega 2.6 users (question)

    Do files saved in Omega 2.6 open and cut/print ok with earlier versions of Omega such as 2.1. We're contemplating purchasing only one upgrade to 2.6. But the files then created need to be cuttable and printable from a design station that only has 2.1 loaded. Anyone know for sure?
  11. Gerber sales team

    Well, well, well. I responded to an advertisement sent to me via email from Gerber informing me of the release of Omega 2.6. I asked a question about the product. This was Nov. 7, 9:36am. I said I was interested, but needed some clarification. Today the 12th I get notice back that they "have...
  12. Parser module cannot parse the file.

    Please help me with this one. I like to do my layout in Omega, then export it as an.ai file to then be imported by PhotoShop. (for effects, etc.) This almost always works great. Today, I'm getting the error message above. Does this have anything to do with the fact that this is the client's...
  13. Carriage disconnect "errror message"

    Roland users, is it your opinion that running banners on high speed with the print head in the "up" position, contributes to more spit and spatter onto the sensor strip? I'm calling it that because I don't know the proper name. But it's that long 1/2" high clear plastic strip that guides the...
  14. Exceedingly dumb question, re: temp files

    Ok, can anyone say for sure, if it's absolutely safe to dump any file with the extension .tmp? Doing some housecleaning and can't be sure. I know, I know, it's probably a dumb question, but I'm a rookie on some things.
  15. Same problem, different day. (photoshop)

    Ok, still having a bit of a problem in PS when adding special effects. Getting error messages to the tune of "not enough memory" etc. I posted about this the other day and got much advice suggesting that I don't have enough RAM. Added 1 gig yesterday and now have 2 gigs total. Someone said...
  16. Not enough memory error. Please help.

    Trying to apply a brushed metal background (Alien Skin Eye Candy 5.0) to a sign in PhotoShop 7.0. Sign is 3'x4', (112 meg at 150 dpi) Error message keeps popping up stating "cannot complete command due to insufficient memory". The computer itself has 1.0 Gig Ram. Surely this command doesn't...
  17. Omega 2.1 users question.

    Does anyone know why Omega won't open or import, Illy files from version 4.0 or newer? Seems like they should be able to do so. Isn't Adobe Illustrator 4.0 much older than Omega 2.1? Or are there some compatibility issues I don't know of? Settings? I have to continually ask that files be sent...
  18. PhotoShop experts...help please.

    Purchased Fantastic Fills, which is a library of .bmp textures. Tried for an hour last nite to figure out how to add them to my texture folder as a preset in PhotoShop 7.0. The default textures seem to all have .pat extension on them and these of course are .bmp. What am I doing wrong? Any...
  19. Ever thrown anyone out of your shop?

    Just wondering if things have ever gone so, so very wrong that you were forced to ask someone to leave the store?
  20. Corel users can you help?

    I'm sure someone has this one. How do you go about getting rid of the nice 8-1/2" x 11" box off the composing page in Corel? (Corel 7.0) Can it even be done? I'd like a look more like the composing page in Omega. Thanks, any help appreciated.
