Can you not make an emergency floppy boot disc? Used to know how but have forgotten 🙁
-
Yup, Go for it girl 😎

Can’t see a problem with that Marcella, anyway, what have you got to lose 😕

Make a boot up disc from your friends laptop (?)

You can buy a rubber sandblast mask from Spandex I believe.
Have used it for a local stonemason but he supplied the rubber.
As for the setings, it’s trial and error i’m afraid, just run it slllllooooowwwww.

If you have any offcuts of magnetic material, print your own advert on them,
stating magnetic vehicle panels and vehicle livery supplied and next time you
are at B&Q etc, look out for unmarked vans and wap one on the drivers door 🙂Dave

We have a streamline terminal in place as we do a lot of work for companies that have purchasing cards.
Recently had an enquiry for 1000 sheets of engravers brass over the net and they said they would pay by credit card if the price was ok.
Quoted and got the job then was supplied by the customer, two credit card numbers to split the cost over the two. Both were in the same name so we keyed them in with the card numbers, security codes off the rear + the numbers in the postcode of the delivery address (Peckham in London).Payment with authorisation went through so we sent the goods.
1 month later, gets a letter off Streamline saying customer has not authorised these payments so they are taking them back out of our account. £3500 👿
Streamline say we take our own risk taking credit card payments over the telephone/net. What’s the point of bl00dy authorisation codes.
PS Now in the hands of the fraud squad.

Had a thought last night, with the gerber software you should have font designer. Inline each character of the font for the correct strength then save each one into one file then use font designer to make up your own true type font. When this is done you could then go to ttf convertor with no problems. Long winded I know but when your in a hole 🙄

Ritrama vinyl code 260
Pyramid on 0161 872 5666 -
quote SpeedFreak:To Dave n Rob – I have just tried that…….but that also changes the font to the bold version of it! Worth a shot though thanks! 😀
If it gets you out of a hole, do a minus outline to get the strength of character you need.
-
Have you tried using it in the small text entry and then converting to shape?
-
I’m the good looking one facing the camera :lol1:
Don’t you have the facility on your design programme to outline any of your fonts?
Looks like Arial with an outline put on it.

I always tend to put some countersunk self tappers through as well because I believe in belt and braces stuff 🙄

Press the arrow keys: down – right – left – up
and then press AND HOLD: right – down – left and then the power switch.
This puts you in service mode then press menu for the options.

Yep, only sacking the coach and he’s getting off light
But for the players

James, beware, quite a lot of companies only sell this by the roll ad at £9-£10 per metre, it can kill the job. A&P display will sell it by the metre. If you only need a small piece, PM me and I may be able to sort you out.

We use anti-graffiti film on a regular basis and buy it by the roll and apply by hand, no machine necessary.

If you have PaintShop Pro or similar, use the camera on the programme to do a screen capture your layout for emailing. Costs Nowt 😀

This might help

How about only buying 2 cartridges and remove 2 inks, insert the 2 cartridges and draw through with a syringe until pulling through clear.
Repeat with other inks and you will use far less flush than the mahine would use doing it mechanically then leave the heads in soak.

Welcome Chris,
Enjoy the boards. If you are stuck on anything, the ‘search the boards’ facility at the top of the screen will probably find you some help if the subject has been broached before. Everything from which printer to go for to who’s the board’s most prolific boozers 😀 (That’s Nik and Marcella by the way :lol1: )

Duly Noted
THE DRINKS ARE ON NIGEL AT SIGN UK
Dave

Send me your cheque book, building society book and any cash you have NOW and i’ll help you resist temptation 😀
-
Can you hold out until May Lorraine?
At Sign UK you will have all the machines there and with each one competing for their share in the market, you should be able to get a great deal. I bought a couple of things at the show last year and got 20% discount on list price so it may be worth holding on.
-
Tell them to go forth and multiply. Tell them that you have ‘X’ years experience as opposed to the other party’s evident lack of experience.
One thing I know you will do Shane and that is the right thing.
Good Luck
P.S. Can’t you nobble the other b@st@rd 😕

quote geoz:On the Troop rip, enable the remote print server, then you can send a print job from your home computer every couple of days – no need to go to the shop then…

Just noticed another Ritrama swatch and Ritrama 301 Marine Blue is also marked up RAL 5017

Just in case you need it, Intercoat Vinyl 9744 is an exact match for RAL5017 and is marked up as such.
Dave

quote Peter Normington:Great Idea Phill,
we should also make the motorways one way, so all 6 lanes are utilised, on odd hours, all traffic flows south, then on even hours all trafic flows north

Give them a ring and tell them that you have never used it before so could they send you a small sample roll. Most suppliers will.
