Or revert to an older copy of CC if you can and save the PMS swatches, then re-load the newest CC version and load the PMS swatches and you're good to go. That's our workaround. Pantone Connect was a mess to try and use for PMS colors & I believe was going to be an additional cost to CC.

Yes, great point, still very relevant to this day. The CutContour stroke always needs to be at the top of the layer stack and the stroke centered. Another thing that can throw VersaWorks off in reading the CutContour stroke are transparencies that aren't flattened. Years ago Roland provided a...

I understand the color matching. Same here. Although for the critical clients, we keep a print sample in their job folder with their previous job invoice/paperwork for reference to match back to should we need to.

Absolutely! Good points there. We've had some customers bring in graphics that they've had laying on a shelf in their non-climate controlled garage for several years and then want to use them. Dates & we also make sure to notate what the customer part number is, since the part number isn't...

We only send out the exact amount ordered as many of our corporate accounts aren't fond of having more decals sent than are on their PO as it messes up the inventory numbers on their end. We always fill the media with as many as we can print at one time. So if there are extra & it's for a client...

I know this is an old post, but thought I would share our experience producing & installing graphics on a very special plane, The Global Flyer that flew around the world...non-stop in 2005. We produced & installed the graphics on the lower blue portion of the fuselage back in 2005. As I recall...

We use #2 Nickel Fasnap grommets. That's always happened. We just poke them out if they hang up. We get some large format banners sent to us that we outsource & they typically have a few holes still left that they don't even take the time to remove before shipping them out.

That's the one we have as well. Built well and last forever. I worked for another company for a short tone that had mounted theirs on a stand in the shape of a tower so that it was rigged to use foot pressure. It was the craziest, hardest to use contraption to move around a production table. I...

Fasnap, almost 30 years in use and still holding it's own.

We've tried the Vinyl Off several times over the years, it never worked no matter if we followed the directions or tried it other ways.

I'm not familiar enough with your specific machine, but just a thought, not sure if you are printing, laminating and then re-loading to cut, but if you are clicking "get media width" again after re-loading to plot after laminating, that will cause your cut lines to be off.

We are located in the middle of KS. We primarily use Fellers & have for decades. The KC branch is our "local" one. 1 day ship time via UPS for most items. We are also 1 day ship from at least 2 other Fellers warehouses. Used to be 1 day from their headquarters in Tulsa until a few years ago, now...

Nice work! I built our crude one about 12 years ago or more. On it's 2nd cheapo box fan. Now the motor in that one is going, (they run 24/7) & the cheapo retail store plastic fertilizer rack I re-purposed has broken where I added wheels on the bottom at the corners. It's time to build a...

I see people saying Estimate is out of business, website down etc. We use them and their website is still up. They are also responsive when it comes to issues, replying in an hour or less typically. They send us a new license file every month to keep the software active. Now as far as updating...

We have to load the new license each month as well. It's a bit annoying since that was never the case until the last year or so. They are usually very responsive to any issues we've encountered since we've used them the last 10 years. Can I ask, why you think it seems as they are shutting things...

It's been some time since I ran into this, but I believe we had to re-save the file and re-load it into VW to get VW to realize it wasn't corrupt. (If you mentioned you already tried this I missed it). I agree with the several posters above who use PDF files. We've always used PDF files since...

I don't think running magnetic thru a roll fed printer such a as a Roland is a good idea. Too much time trying to set it up so that the mag does not stick to the platen & then hoping you don't have any head crashes. We print on cast vinyl so it's as thin as possible, laminate with cast laminate...

Cast vinyl should always be used for long term outdoor installations. If it's a project that's temporary, then that would allow for a calendered vinyl to be used. A quality cast vinyl will will last longer due to it's inherit nature & not have dimensional stability issues. I can't tell you how...

We just received his email this morning. Seems this type of scam has been going on for a few years. We've received previous emails that sound very similar to this. Too many red flags to be real.

The MacTac B-Free is made to apply dry. Here's a link to their product guide sheet. https://s3.amazonaws.com/fellers/production/documents/mactac-jt5796m-clear-pdb-current-2018-1345.pdf We tried it and had issues with it scratching when squeeged, even using a GeekWraps soft edge squeegee.Went...
