    I wonder if there is a grade of magnetic material that will cut on the plotter without compromising the electronics of my Graphtec?
  3. Unintended Solar Oven

    A few months ago I installed a multi part sign. Between the posts at the top is a sandblasted redwood sign. Below that Is a box with glass that slides in tracks that houses one of those changeable message boards, the type with the slots that letters with tabs press into. I got a call...
  4. Dialing in a color

    Suppose I have a color chip on a Pantone chart, how can I get it dialed in on my file so that it will print that color when I send it to a printer?
  5. Color Management on Monitor help please...

    Are there any free and simple programs that are basic enough to not require a huge time investment to get screen colors more accurate?
  6. Color Management on Monitor help please...

    We send our digital printing out to be done and I'd like to find a simple means of having the color I see on screen and what comes back from the printer a bit tighter than it is. If I select a PMS color chip in Flexi, I'd like it to look close to the chip in the fan deck. Is there an easy and...

    Bobby, please tell us what you did? How could we do it? Teach us to fish.
  8. Boat Lettering - Critique

    Jill, after so many years kicking around harbor towns doing boats, I am still convinced that doing anything without studying the vessel first is not a correct beginning. Sailboats have a very different grace than power craft and require a lettering and placement and size that reflect that...

  12. Hand Lettered based on a font?

    I don't even remember ever hearing the word font until the Gerber machines. Typestyles were called "cases" in the print shops where they set type. Signmen didn't use fonts, the lettered. Letters were drawn on the wall to fit the space. The boldness was determined by how the signman wanted it to...
  13. Flexi on Mac

    I recently spoke with a friend in Oregon that has been using Flexi for all these years since Casmate and last year went MAC and still loves Flexi. Says it works the same.
  14. Only One Copy ?????

    Turns out that Flexi was open on a laptop upstairs. These computers are not on a network but there is wi-fi in the shop. When I shut of Flexi on the notebook the other opened right up. How do it know???
  15. Only One Copy ?????

    7.6v2 I move the dongle to different computers when I use them. There are no networks involved, so the problematic computer can't see Flexi elsewhere were it opened elsewhere. Maybe I didn't re boot enough times? Any ideas Bobby?
  16. Only One Copy ?????

    This morning I clicked the icon to start Flexi and it opened up then flashed a message that my version is only licensed for one version at a time. That's all I have is one version. What's up? How do I get past this?

    thank you all very much.
  18. another nameless face...

    Thanks all. I've looked at the three scripts mentioned above, and none look like the right one. Perhaps I'm finding the wrong version of Bickman. Can you steer me towards the correct one. Thanks

    can someone ID this one please?
  20. Hexis vinyl - what do you know about it?

    We've been using it this past year. Only problems seem to be the smell of some colors. When we pull out the roll of white there is this toxic smell around and my wife wants to put on a mask like if spraying paint. We've also had problems with their paint mask bonding too tightly to release liner...
