Illustrator to VinylMaster
Sue2 replied to Kronick Designs's topic in VinylMaster CUT, LTR, PRO & DSR
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

YES...running a copy/print shop, I deal with this all the time. Low resolution graphics & photos that customers expect to enlarge to posters, yard signs & banners! AND , of course, they usually don't have logos in EPS format....or have deleted some of "those" files because they "wouldn't open." I usually have to re-make the eps files or find the high resolution photos if possible. Merry Chritsmas! Sue2

Don't know what your bow looked like to begin with so it's hard to tell you what to do. If it was a color outline of a bow you traced you will get a trace of that outline... some trace programs will give you the inside fill as white....some not. Try hand outlining the bow for your customer. Sue -

A quick fix: If you change the color of the "piece or pieces" you need, then go to CUT, you should be able to just cut that color. Sue2 -

SISER Metallic Heat Transfer Vinyl
Sue2 replied to Jaryn's topic in TITAN 2 Series Vinyl Cutter Discussions
Thanks WG for the Siser Metalic review! I was able to cancel it since it hadn't been shipped yet. BUT, don't know if I would order from that "Nation" again. I placed my order on 9/2...a partial shipment (luckily without the Metallic) wasn't shipped till 9/6 and won't arrive here until 9/10. Yes, I had a 10% off coupon and free shipping so the savings was worth it....but I would have liked to be cutting this shirt order this weekend. I had added the Metallic as a trial....is there any Metallic that holds up? -

Titan - 1, 2, refurbished....ugh
Sue2 replied to Meucow's topic in Table TITAN Series Vinyl Cutter Discussions
If you are that busy you should be putting some aside for upgrading your equipment. If you are that busy and do not have extra to set aside you are probably charging too little for what you are producing. Just my 2 cents. Sue2 -

And it shows up better too!

Did you convert to curves first? Sue2

Most all of your VINYLS are UV protected...the problem is the adhesive which would be facing the outside/sun. The adhesive would have to be specially made to stand up to the UV...I don't know of any. Sue2
