I'll admit, I'm kinda lost with what you are doing from a functional standpoint. I don't know what the capabilities are with the Mimaki or Rasterlink5. However, from the Illustrator perspective, It sounds like you are trying to overprint one spot color with another spot color. It's a technique...

Yes, and it is that specific order --- "Click/Shift/Drag/Release Everything." (I always get that part wrong. :banghead:) Set the cursor where you want to start the line > Click and Hold the mouse > Depress and Hold the Shift Key > Start dragging the mouse to the desired end point. (Once the...

I subsidized one of my first employers. Not good. Those little stops once in a while to help out the boss blossomed into almost daily deliveries. It didn't click with me then, but on reflection I realized it was an indicator of poor company management and suspect financial issues. ...and I had...

3M is calling it a match for PMS 7461 C --- http://solutions.3m.com/wps/portal/3M/en_US/Graphics/3Mgraphics/ToolsAndSupport/PantoneColorReference/ CYMK should be easily divined from that. This page offers Colour Palettes for Graphic Design Software...

I admire your fortitude for the challenge! The local area high school here uses the mac mini for it's graphic design program. It's set up as a dual boot using either the Mac OS or Windows. Apple offers educational pricing... not much, but it's a couple bucks. (It's a fairly well funded high...

Always a treat to see your projects!

very niiiiiiiiiice --- Thanks for sharing!

At least these guys got their logo... albeit, a shade off from corporate specs.

My first impression was "wow, that it's big." That's neither good nor bad, just an observation. Of course that brought me to Graphic Destruction's point, so I'm wondering about the structure to hold it on the roof. Aside from the engineering for snow and wind, I'm wondering about the aesthetics...

oooooo one of my pet peeves - not using a color palette. Yup! The underlying principle for using a color palette is being able to deliver a consistent product. And for a long story: Back in the olden days... even nowadays I still use vinyl manufacturers' color palettes as part of my design...

Yes - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shop_drawing Typically, we show: The dimensions of the sign and list the product specs on a scaled color drawing. A scaled photo of the storefront/location with the image overlaid as it would appear in place. Measurements of it's placement at the location...

Best wishes with your new endeavors!

It's painful to make that break with pets. My heart goes out to you --- trusting the memories she leaves behind are filled with smiles.

doh… :popcorn: …release the hounds!

hmmm? hmmm?

HO! HO! HO! …and to you and yours. insert >shameless picture of pets dressed in holiday finery > .

Just got an e-mail blast from CreativeBusiness.com, pitching a year-end blowout of their business forms. I haven't read through any of the stuff, but it may be a helpful resource. This link goes to a pay per view article that may help in your quest. The site owner is author, and an obvious...

Not exactly sure what you're doing - but, do what you did to get the type with the white box. (I know, it's got a white box that blocks the photo. Do it anyway.) Then, keeping that image selected go to: Main Menu > Window > Transparency. From the transparency window, there's a pull down...

The lightbox source company offers Duratrans as an upgrade. It is a more appropriate solution for that particular application, anyway. http://www.anythingdisplay.com/page/LED_Display/PROD/LED_SBM_24x36 IMO, a the typical sign shop printer won't offer the density or color that I would expect to...
