Hey all. I have received a pdf of a logo the printer says is created in Indesign. I can open it in Adobe reader, I go to "save as" and click the pdf option. Once saved I try to import into CorelDraw, I have versions 8 and 12. The pdf imports but is terribly pixilated and unusable. Flexi...

Any advice (pros or cons) as to using PayPal for my business? I don't have the volume to justify using a regular credit card merchant and the fees are killing me, but I still have some accounts that prefer paying with a credit card. I have a friend who has a small web based business and she...

Hey all. Just wondering if everyone is as ready to see '09 go by the wayside as I am. Sales are about half of what they should have been, clients (even established customers) are way more cautious about spending money and EVERYBODY is price shopping. Hope everyone has a great TWENTYTEN or...

Hello all. First some background. Guy calls up from out of state, they've bought an apartment complex and needs signs changed out. Lighted cabinet with 6'x8 faces and some type of monument sign with routed or Gemini letters (based on pics of another complex they own). This would have to be...
