I have an Epson GS6000 and ColorBurst RIP. I want to print on white reflective and I'm wondering which environment in ColorBurst would be best. Any thoughts? I should mention that I really don't know much about environments and profiling but I would like to learn more. Color management, too...

Well, I've decided to go back to college and finish my graphic design degree... only 15 years after I dropped out! I thought my credits had expired long ago but I just found out they didn't so I'm going back. I don't own the shop I work in (although I have owned one before) so I'd like to...

I thought i would ask if anyone would be interested in printing a couple of t-shirts for me. Literally 2, for a friend and me. There are about 6 colors, one of them is white and I'd rather not have the shirts white. I don't know much about printing shirts so let me know what other info you might...

Fairly new to printing but not to signs so sorry this is a "newb" question. I've been noticing lately that my printed vinyl will start lifting when it's printed and cut right to the edge. I've read around here about that happing but haven't read what to do about it or how to avoid it. I've...

For years I've thrown away the cardboard tubes that the vinyl and banner material are rolled on. I hated to do it but didn't know what to do with them. Yesterday I put them on CraigsList in the "Free Stuff" section. What a response! Hope to get rid of all I have today and they will hopefully be...

The temp here today is 97 with a heat index of 105 - 107. Really hot. So hot you discover your seat belt can also be used as a branding iron. Got any "It's so hot" jokes? (New ones - not the same ol' lame ones you can find online!) :flamey:

I want to buy Adobe Illustrator for home use and I don't have the $$$ to shell out for the latest and greatest CS5. CS3 would be fine but I'll take whatever version I can get in my price range. I'd rather not say my price range because I have no idea what an older version might go for. Any ideas...

I'm having trouble figuring out the best way to word this. It's a banner for a chinese restaurant. They want to advertise that on July 15, everything on the menu will be 1/2 price. So... All Day July 15 50% Off All Menu Items or July 15 Entire Menu 1/2 Price All day or 1/2 Price Menu...

Has anyone ever applied printed vinyl to printed window perf? Well, I just did. Why didn't it occur to me beforehand that the vinyl is going to curl up where it lays on a hole???? I just tried a Sealit Pen and a heat gun. Neither solved the problem. Any other suggestions? btw - the customer...

Suppose I'm working on a design in Illustrator and decide that what I'm doing would be much easier in Photoshop. Is there a way to open the file in Photoshop and keep my layers?

Anyone?

I did a search on how to chisel a font and didn't get the news I wanted so I'm posting this! :) I need this chiseled. Is there an easy way? I can't find a font that looks like this that is already chiseled. This is driving me crazy. I'm sick of looking at it. Please help! :thankyou:

I think something has gotten changed in some preferences somewhere. Suppose I have everything on Layer 1 then I want to put part of it (the cutline) on Layer 2. I've always just cut the object, create a new layer and paste... up until yesterday. Now when I paste, the layers palette switches...

The "e"s are pretty distinctive so maybe someone will know this one. I've seen it before but can't think WTH it is. Sorry for the rough scan. Working from my guy's biz card. Actually, a fax of it. It's a scan of a fax! D'oh! Thanks!

I'm doing a layout for a directional wedding reception sign. I typed in the "&" symbol and tried to fill it the color I want and it won't do it! I tried clicking a pantone color: nothing. Tried using the ink dropper: nothing. I tried converting it to curves instead of text: nothing. It's showing...

Ya know in Illustrator, when you open a new file, you can type in the dimensions for the artboard? Is there a way to save sizes in the drop down list, such as 18x24, 12x24, etc? I'm talking about the drop down list that has Letter, Legal, Tabloid, A4, etc. I know I could just save a file...

I need to laminate a couple of prints today and I'll be using the Big Sqeegee. The first time I tried, it went down very easily but there's was ALOT of (what I think is called) "silvering"; looks like I didn't use enough pressure on the squeegee. I thought I would put more downward pressure on...

This is a continuation of my thread "What font pops in your head...". I think I have the font - now I could use some advice. The first one is the new layout. It's not finished but I don't know where to go from here. The second one is the original layout but the scale of the sign changed and I...

I'm having a hard time picking a font for a logo/sign. It's for a bakery called "Doughlicious". I'm thinking something fat, scripty and fun, kind of like Candice, but I don't like that one. Anything come to mind? Not asking for anyone to go to any trouble, but if something pops into your...

Can anyone help me with the proper Spanish translation of the following text?: "Construction Area - Authorized Personnel Only - Do Not Enter" & "To enter this area you must have Hard Hat & Safety Glasses" Thanks!
