General Art Discussions / Re: Very strange art issue
« Last post by Atownsend on Yesterday at 04:08:02 PM »
Thanks Steve. I’ll see if I can save it as a PSD and see if it still does that. I’m just trying to wrap my theory brain around it at this point. The text in PS is pixel data, no fonts so I was pretty stunned to see the text effected. We’ll use both DCS2 and PSD with blank RGB channels, depending on what mood I’m in on a particular day. Is there any benefit to using a PSD over a DCS2? I like the DCS two because it usually looks a little bit better in AI with the color composite.

I was using .psd files instead of DCS 2.0 for the last 15 years or so. Maybe that will work for you. I can't think of a way that a letter would be dropped. In the .psd files, the text should be converted to raster, in Illy, the text would be converted to outlines. At least that was my experience.

General Screen Printing / Re: Laminate over pallet tape?

heat will make it shrivel up like George in the pool..... ;D

we put on multiple layers of tape, one as a "base" and then two or three for quick changes. Sure is a pecker to reapply though...

General Screen Printing / Laminate over pallet tape?
« Last post by farmboygraphics on April 16, 2024, 01:53:03 PM »
This will probably only apply to the shops that also do signs in house, but has anyone ever tried putting laminate over the pallet (transfer) tape?
I'm not sure how well it would hold up to the flash or hold tack. Just a thought I had while printing some hoodies.  ;D
If I remember, I think I'll try it on one board next time I change tape.
