  1. Duplicating a color from a imported file

    By any chance are you doing all your design and layout in CMYK? Are the colours (that's the way we spell it up here) in the EPS file RGB? Just curious. Dan
  2. figured out an easy way to help the Summa detect registration marks

    We run a Mimaki printer and a Summa cutter here and the Summa never misses the registration marks - laminated, unlaminated, matte, even the static cling stuff. The Summa OPUS is legendary. Dan
  3. vectorizing software

    I've tried a bunch of so called "solutions" and I always revert back to hand tracing. When all is said and done it provides the BEST results. Dan
  4. That's Just the Way Its Got to Be

    You nailed it! Dan
  5. Removing VHB from sheetrock

    Shot gun. - 12 Gauge - 00 Buck Putty up the hole when you're done! Dan
  6. Font or not

    Which one of the half dozen fonts are you referring to? Dan
  7. Simple before and after

    I'm assuming you don't need the 4242 address jammed in there somewhere. Dan
  8. screw you Google

    I can assure you it's not Google. Just Google "Susan Google Specialist" for more information than you could possibly digest in a thousand lifetimes. Dan
  9. Color Accuracy Question

    Working/designing in sRGB will give you the closest match to the output of your Roland. Most CMYK color spaces only manage a small subset of what your Roland can produce. Let your RIP (Versaworks) handle the color conversion. That's what it was designed to do. Dan
  10. Mexican Restaurant Rebrand

    HUGE improvement over the original! Dan
  11. Ugh, can someone help

    Well there ya go! Nuff said! Dan
  12. Ugh, can someone help

    I doubt it. Looks more like a PhotoShop POS! Dan
  13. New to routing! Need help

    We have a guy with a waterjet and a laser that we sub out our dimensional stuff to - I provide him with the vector files. He's done a few inlay projects for us with his waterjet and they came out perfect. Dan
  14. New to routing! Need help

    Bear in mind that when you route out, for instance a "T" the inside angles will have a radius equal to the diameter of your bit whereas the outside angles will be sharp. The opposite is going to happen when you route the "pocket". You're going to be the victim of the round peg in a square hole...
  15. Outdoor Scenic Overlook Signs?

    Google "Fossil Industries". Signs that survive. Dan
  16. Recommend a plotter to me.

    Definitely a Summa. We have one. Best OPUS hands down. Built like a tank. Dan
  17. steps in gradation

    +1 to what Bob and Jackpine said. I like to export to an uncompressed tif instead of a jpg. It just avoids compression artifacts that sometimes degrade the image. Dan
  18. Foam letters

    Done many of them using the blue foam and the pink foam - buy at the local building supply. Cut them out with a scroll saw - paint them with a good quality latex paint - stick 'em on with PL400. A word of warning though. Some colours (that's the way we spell it up here) seem to attract...
  19. Any idea what ugly font is used here?

    Finally found it - it's Clarissa Regular. With 28,000 fonts I'm glad I found it in the "Cs". Dan
  20. Any idea what ugly font is used here?

    That's pretty close. I could probably use it and get away with it. Thanks, Dan
