Goose....at what quantity do you move to plastisol transfers? Do you have a favorite provider for these? Thanks, Sue2

Well maybe Corel rewired my brain because I don't care for AI. I have VM CUT and find it very similar to Corel. Sue2

Goose...if you can master AI, then Corel should be a snap. In my opinion Corel is much easier to work with and is my "Go to" program. Sue2

Mostra Nuova (Bold)

Me too! So, for future readers, what font is that?

Speaking of back ups...What programs are you all using for auto back-ups? I would sure like to find one that will back up automatically every night. TIA Sue2

Too tiny a sample to get a good match but..... Swirly capitals look like Revalina with some altering.

Thanks...I'll take a look.

Thank you...I had seen that one but was hoping for an easier solution. I doubt my customer would spring for that for the little they need. Sue2

I have a customer asking for a glass door decal in a frosted purple & green (grapes with leaves) Who makes the frosted (sandblast looking) vinyl in colors? Thanks! Sue2

Not exact...but close Zebulon (Regular)

Find My Font says: Contrail One (Regular)

In CorelDraw it is called Text on a Curve or Fit Text to Path..

Beware of customers bearing eps files! Just last week one of my customers sent me eps vector files for HTV on Hoodies... I was tickled...getting cut ready files seldom occurs. AND, of course, 3 out of 6 turned out to be raster images she brought into Photoshop and then saved as eps files. She had no idea she wasn't providing files I could cut. The best though was a few years ago...a t-shirt file that came in as an AI vector file...again, I was tickled...until I looked at the wireframe outlines. OMG.....it was a mess of pieces on top of pieces...see attached. Scarecrow came to my rescue on that one...welding & simplifying it for HTV.

My first cutter was a LaserPoint 2 from US Cutter...that was in 2010...it did the job well and I learned vinyl cutting on it. Forward a few years and I found a used GraphTec CE6000-60. Last weekend I was really impressed again with what this machine can do. My sister found a design online that she wanted on a t-shirt...it had a lot of tiny dots, florals & curls. I had to trace the graphic, cut & apply. I was worried about the tiny detail in the floral graphic....BUT the GraphTec did an amazing job without a problem. Check out the attached photo...that's the tip of an Exacto knife. Sue2 Sue2
