"That is even more different when you're using Corel X5 and X4. You'll see the difference in the color management where the changes are revealed in engraving results have changed from X4 and X5."

No. 2 grommets are not all the same size

If you, like me, thought that all No. 2 self-piercing grommets were the same size (why else would it be called a No. 2 grommet?), you would be wrong. We have a Hiker grommet press with a No. 2 die.…Continue

Dennis Dunning replied to Dennis Dunning's discussion Potential issue with VersaWorks 4.9.1 and CorelDRAW X6"Good morning Di - Don't get me wrong, I like X6.

CYW replied to Dennis Dunning's discussion Potential issue with VersaWorks 4.9.1 and CorelDRAW X6"Dennis, Corel completely revamped their Color Management in X6

Dennis Dunning posted a discussionPotential issue with VersaWorks 4.9.1 and CorelDRAW X6
I decided to create a new discussion topic although this is a follow-up to a discussion I previously started entitled Bitmap color problem. The issue, briefly, was that when I exported an eps from CorelDRAW X6 Version 16.3.0.1114 and imported it into Roland VersaWorks Version 4.9.1, the image on my VersaWorks screen and in the resulting print from my VersaCAMM SP 540i, had a distinctly blue hue and there were errant spots and a halo outside the image. The graphic in the cdr file was a high…See More

Visual perception of white
Posted on November 14, 2011 at 7:40am 11 Comments 0 Likes
I wanted to share something that I never noticed before about the color white printed using RVW-BK01A (a Roland VersaWorks white) on our SP-540i (a CMYK machine). I had a design with white in it that I printed it on Quick Print. I printed some of white using RVW-BK01A and other parts without it, in other words, I let the Quick Print be the white color. The RVW-BK01A white printed with a little black ink in it and, much to my surprise, it looked whiter than the white of the Quick Print,…
Continue Glue line
Posted on September 14, 2011 at 11:53am 2 Comments 0 Likes
During a car wrap workshop in May, Steven Jackson explained that calendered vinyl is more prone to shrinking than cast vinyl and that shrinking can produce a glue line, also known in the vernacular, as a snot line. How bad could it be I asked Steven with some trepidation? He said it depended, among other things, on the size and age of the material. As luck would have it, we recently installed a sign on on a store-front window next to a round vinyl sign that was about 3 1/2 feet in diameter… Continue
