    Font Help

    Does anybody know what these 2 fonts are? What the font can’t tell.

    Font Help

    Which one is that mfatty500?
  5. Our Mimaki CJV30-130 is finally coming to the end of life. It’s been discontinued for a long time, and hard to get support now. Now we’re in the market for a new one. Just don’t know what the go to brand or model is. I see the new thing is UV LED. It’s dry as soon as it comes out. Any recommendations on something that will take us for awhile and not be outdated and discontinued as soon as we buy it?

    New Printer/Cutter Purchase

    I’ve always heard Roland was the way to go. So you think eco solvent is the ink to go with? Also, do they make a printer / cutter combo or 2 different machines?

    60 Degree Blade?

    My Mimaki CJV30 does not do good on small letters and such. Instead of cutting, it generally rips. Figured it’s because it can’t swivle around because it’s so small so it rips since the blade hasn’t had time to spin around to cut. Will replacing it with a 60 degree blade help with this? Been researching and it seems like it, but wanted to ask my experts on here first.

    Can't Find Font

    I've looked through my 47,000 fonts I have on my computer with FontBase. Well, pretty much all lol. I can't clean this graphic up enough to get WTFont to work or any other sites. Anyone know something close: Me to the Moon.

    Can't Find Font

    I used what the font app on my phone, but it was way off. Plus couldn’t get it cleaned up enough to get a better try at it.

    Manipulate Text

    What program can manipulate the text like in the screen shot? I know to rotate it, but they rotated it and it has an arch to it.

    Manipulate Text

    Guess I could do text on a path then move it? I just tried it in Illustrator and an envelope distort looks ok. I wish the Flexi distort had more options.

    Having a hard time

    I don’t know what’s going on today. I’m doing a simple shape and just can’t get it right today. It’s blowing my mind. The base wants their coin made into stickers and I’m having such a hard time on the outline. Like it’s making my head hurt lol.

    Dimension wise it says it’s right now. Who knows. Still looks wrong. The bottom left does to me at least.

    Having a hard time

    I may have it now. You can see the burgandy line behind it. I did the shape and then made an arc between the two top points then adjusted the bottom points to match the angles. Now it’s square and not crooked.

    Having a hard time

    Yeah I put it in the scanner and tried to line it up. It’s so difficult since it’s not a flat top to put it to. I drew a box and tried rotating to get it straight across the box but hasn’t worked good either. Don’t know how else to do it.

    Template Background

    If it’s big and masking, it will slow it down for awhile. Should have seen when I had to print a 60’x60’ map. Yes that’s foot not inches. I made them into individual panels by masking 48”x30’ panels. Took longer than a minute or 2 to catch up.

    Having a hard time

    Taking the top one. The left side is higher.

    Having a hard time

    Like this. It looks ok, but it’s not. When I measure them they’re crooked. I can’t think of an easier way to do it though.

    Having a hard time

    Yeah trying to contour it to get the shape of the coin. I have the other vectors to put on it, but don’t have a vector of the actual shape. I did a circle for the middle. Then I drew one of the points off the circle. Then copied and pasted them to make the 5 points. Problem is I can’t get them right. Like one side of the point will be longer than the other or shorter.
  22. tooler82

    Having a hard time

    The problem is I’ve made it but making the shape and rotating them doesn’t look right. Some look rotated where the sides aren’t the same.

    Mimaki's Cut Is Off

    I know this is a long shot since not many on here have the printer / cutter like our Mimaki CJV30-130. It's been messing up for awhile, and it's hard to get help with it, and can't find stuff online. After we bought it from Grimco, Mimaki pulled their products from Grimco, so they won't help. Mimaki sends me to another dealer, but they don't help. Anyways. The print and cut is off. I don't know what to do.

    Mimaki's Cut Is Off

    Thank you for that. Googled that and found out that’s the clear strip in there. I cleaned it. Will try it out.

    Mimaki's Cut Is Off

    Oh and btw, I did the offset setting. It's always dead on though. I guess because it does a little box all the way to the right and cuts it out. The problem the machine has is the further left and bigger, is where the cut is off.
