  1. Suggestions Layout and double sided automations

    Our workstations can use several macros in Corel to Nest prints with crop marks then drop into the RIP hot folder for our print tech to handle. The Flexi Production Manager (RIP) doesn't do well at nesting &/or crop marks. Plus the designers can do the nesting and such quicker at their own...

  3. Question Trailer Wrap

    We're about to do this to a bus. I guess to cut cost we're applying right over the old wrap. Also has a lot of window perf we'll take off and since the new design doesn't go into the windows we'll just leave perf off altogether.

    There's a whole lot more to know than just applications alone. The best way to learn the various programs is one on one sessions or tutorials. Corel is, by far, the easiest to learn without too much intervention. Yeah, gonna get a lot of flack for that but.... Ask questions on the specific forum...
