Admin commented on stephanie tafoya's blog post Vinyl Tent"I would recommend solar print if you are heat pressing it - it will apply at a lower temperature and not damage the pop up tent"
Bob Maggio commented on stephanie tafoya's blog post Vinyl Tent"I would use a cast vinyl (manufacturer of choice) and laminate and you should be fine. A calendered vinyl will shrink a little over time and collect dirt around the edges"

cutting tiny letters
Posted on March 26, 2010 at 3:02pm 2 Comments 0 Likes
I have a client who wants tiny letters cut to put on a 2" pocker chip. What is the best way to do this? I have bought regular white permanet vinyl to cut it out of but when I tried cutting it all that it did was cut and pull up the letters.... HELP

I have been using CorelDraw for 15 years, but Smart Designer has definitely saved me time. The Create Player Names function has been invaluble since I'm in the sporting goods business and do lots of jerseys. Create Cut Contour, Color Selections, and Vertical text are all features I use on a regular basis.
