Then I need a laminator too?
or is there a spray on sealant that will work for short runs?

Is the Epson 1100 some special inkjet printer, or does it use a special ink so that it doesn't run off when it gets wet?
Are these then printed and sprayed with a clear laminate, or do I need a laminator too?

Maybe USCutter will see this and overnight me a new banner blank so I can finish this project.

Smashed and Poor Packing
-
Just got a 13oz 3' X 6' Banner Blank from USCutter and it came in a box folded in half and smashed flat (grrrrr). There are humps every 3" and a big snarly bunch on every hump where it was folded.
Other than hanging for weeks, is there a method to remove the wrinkles from this unit?
Thanks

If the back of the 4 is anything like my 3GS, can you make a WORM coming out of the Apple?

Thanks for all your input and the Inscape Inset function.
Inkscape Ctrl+( & Ctrl+) will do inset and outset and as long as you don't get carried away seems to work real nice.

Makes perfect sense to me. I have been walking up to peoples boats, cars, trucks and signs and feeling the lettering. Hope no one's looking.

Powder Coating or use Engine Enamel Spray Paint

Title Tells It!
What's Your Favorite Block Letter Font?
I have been using Arial Black, but I think there must be a nicer looking one out there.

Hey that's great, just more little tricks to learn.
Here's another question, do you regularly merge the two layers and cut JUST the outline for the background and full for the top layer, or full cuts for both layers?

That huge roller table is cool, how many signs do you have to do to pay for one of those?
What about that appliance USCutter sells? is it any good?

I understand how to do layered shadows and have a clue how to do just a shadow without the overlay.
Here's my question.
I want to do layered fonts, a larger character with a proportional character over the top so the shadow or outline shows equally all the way around the inside character.
Clear as Mud? Let me know if I need to describe the effect better.
Also are there shadowed (2 part) fonts available? or are these all done with overlays?
-
I originall had it shadowed with yellow and it looked cool, but then I got cheap and only did the one color.
-
Sun Shine should have been yellow to contrast better.
-
My first shadow/layering project. Now I have to figure out how to do outlining. Every time I try using a Large then slightly smaller font, I have to streatch it out and it's still the same size?
Do You use a special FONT set for that? sure could use some hints.

I've tried this image in Inkscape and don't have a problem tracing, BUT, I am sure there is some filter or enhancement that I am not getting.
This image is so crappy, grainy, wobbly that InkScape finds thousands of holes in it.
Anyone willing to help make this file for me please? Then tell me how you did it so I learn something here.
Only need (2) two colors, this will be red ON black ON white background. Finished product will be 23" Wide by 44.5" High

OOOOOOPS Operator Error
I wasn't actually creating a vector file. Watched this video and it sure helped alot.

Now everything is OK, my fault.

Tried that and nothing changed. Still opens Signcut with a blank screen.

This might be an Inkscape forum question or a Signcut question.
I do all my design with Inkscape, text layout etc. It's internal Export to Signcut is flawless for TEXT. Any font, and size text. Works so good it's almost automatic.
Here's the rub.
I have tried to import into Inkscape many different file types .bmp, .jpg, .png, .ai, .svg and a few others. Inscape opens them just fine. I define page and image size, well within the capabilities of my cutter and Signcut software.
When I use the Export feature, sometimes it opens signcut and sometimes it just doesn't.
Either way, when Signcut opens there is nothing there, the standard image is not there and neither is my image. I have tried several different formats, color, b&w, graysacle, line drawings, vector clipart and nothing happens. I have tried opening the files directly into Signcut and still no good.
Windows 7 Ultimate 32bit - 2gb ram
Signcut Build 1.07 WIN
Inkscape 0.47
Attached is the image I have been working on, and I have tried reducing the physical size too.
Whats with all these oval stickers

Gotcha, hey thanks for the sticker tutorial for dummies. Now that I have thoroughly hijacked this thread any other hints or tips?
