  1. Can anyone point me in the right direction? I am looking for a cutter to cut mug wraps from large format paper. 44",  image size is 9.5" x 4" tiled up on 44" x?? paper. Is there an automated cutter available? 
    We are doing about 500 to 1000 mugs a day and want to save cost by using large format printers rather than the 4 sawgrass printers now being used. 


  2. Thank you all for your help and Knowledge. My main business id design and fine art repro. But in this economy I will take on anything, the tips and information you provided to a total stranger is greatly appreciated. THANK YOU again.

  3. Thanks Wild goose, when I do that the offset adds to both the inside and outside of the outline, am trying to just expand the inside to cover a little of the fill color. I created the outline by copying the text pasting behind and offsetting the path, then I selected both and subtracted from shape. so I have a 1/2 black outline with hollow center. I only want to expand the inside.


  4. I have a graphic going into a backlit box.

    The background is blue text is yellow with a black outline, when I cut the blue I include the yellow, where I am having a problem is cutting the black, I need to spread the black to cover the line between the Yellow and the blue so no light shows through. In Illustrator CS there is no align stroke command. How do I enlarge the black just enough to cover the seam?


  5. Thanks Ego, the application is pretty simple and can be done here in my parking lot. I think the most time will be reregistering and weeding the graphic.

    This obviously is not something I do all the time and was just trying to get an Idea how my price compared. I had to send out the quote already so I am committed to the price, maybe I will increase in the future.

    Again thanks for the reply.

     

     

    OW, :huh:?? 


  6. I am lettering a chevy van with the companies logo.

    2 sides, the graphic is aprox 18x36 three colors of perineum vinyl. 

    The back door is aprox 15x21 three colors perineum vinyl and the hood is two color aprox 14 x18.

    To cut and apply the entire job I am charging $557.00 

    Does this amount sound to high or low?

    any input would be appreciated.

     

    Thank you.
