I take this approach without any problems. Start with the highest res you can get. An experienced designer can spot the difference from an original image and a copy of a copy of a scan or an image grabbed from facebook. Don't worry about resampling/resizing it through photoshop or any other...

Uh...pretty much what I said. btw You can make yourself a little handy macro to quickly resize photos to scale. If you bring the photo in and draw a rectangle/square around your post it it will be at 100% now resize the shape to actual and make note of the scale percentage then select your photo...

I personally hate working with other peoples vehicle graphics. Not saying it shouldn't be done but don't expect it to be quick and easy. Once you find a source you'll likely go back and forth for a bit to get what you need. All wraps and/or graphics are printed differently. And we all use...

I personally wouldn't call it a banner. "Window graphic" or "visor graphic". Just me. I also hate referring to web graphics as "banners" Anyway, if you plan to market several choices I'd say it would behoove you to make your own template. Find/know someone to lend you a veloster. Use transfer...

Another method would be to make two cuts. First cut normal then an outer offset contour cut about an eighth of an inch to do the punch cut or "Half Cut" as they like to call it. Also note that the blades you buy come with specs to set your offset and speed. And for giggles...

We hire a service once in a while. They drive their truck out and shred our accumulated paper products on the spot. Don't know the cost though and may not be available in all areas.

laminator take-up reel with homemade clamp on box cutter slicer. Works like a champ. Also used to trim off excess laminate from edge of rolled prints.

Choose a city that has a large military unit or two, a big name college or two, multiple schools, churches on every corner, huge real estate market, a major airport or two, big hospitals and only 1 or two "sign" competitors.

Use pantone greys.

Dump temp files and try again. If that doesn't do it... Uninstall the program. Make sure you opt to delete user files too. Dump temp files again then reinstall.

Welcome PrinterDave. Don't have any insight on your subject but just thought I'd let you know these posts do get read.

I take it they're asking for many magnets? Clipped corners"? "Rounded" corners? Why not outsource it? We do custom magnets in-house but only limited numbers otherwise way cheaper to outsource.

Yep. I see that now. Options 1. Purchase the upgrade if eligible @ $199 ea (we use 4) = approx $800. Good for as long as you want to use it. Usually 5-8 years 2. Subscription without "upgrade" protection (no free new version) @ $198 p/yr. $800 X 5 years = $4000! 3. Subscription with protection...

We primarily work with Corel X7 (non-subscription). Gotten away with no subscription based software (corel, adobe, signlab, etc. for nearly 30 years. We were forced to get a subscription to Adobe. I rarely use it..We also have a subscription to Flexi but only use it for the RIP. There are plenty...

uh.....???

ADOBE- NEVER. I'D RETIRE FROM THE INDUSTRY ALTOGETHER IF ADOBE WERE THE ONLY OPTION.

Yes, that's what my solution was. Except no need to "flatten" the png or convert to jpg. Just powerclip into a circle. - still a workaround not an acceptable fix What about the pantone color shift? No reason for it to change just because raster images are thrown in the mix. And yes, my theory...

blue background is cmyk vector, pantone colored square, and transparent rgb png. Best way we've found to match pantone colors would be to use pdf.

Test print 1 = vector square with pantone fill - exported as pdf Test print 2 - vector sq w/pantone & transparent png/tif on blue background. Test 1 is perfect test 2 vector pantone is way out & transparent raster image has a background color shift.

We've been having some strange issues with our HP360. We're using Flexi Production Manager RIP.. Co-worker exported a batch of files as pdf (raster and vector elements). Prints are good but one of the prints gets ruined during installation. Export the 1 re-print as a pdf same as before and now...
