General Screen Printing / Small "tag" prints on back. Position?
« Last post by Frog on Today at 06:23:41 PM »
Where do you place the small pocket or sleeve sized prints we sometimes print on the backs of T's?
Let's use a business card size, 3.5" wide 2" tall as an example. I'm favoring 2" to the design top from the collar opening, (or 1.5" from the seam)
You guys similar?

I'd never considered that. I think I do drag sometimes as it is easier. Will try that method as well.

Can someone share with me the best settings for saving pdf mocks in Illustrator? We run into some issues recently where art doesnt show on pdfs sometimes and I cannot figure it out even if I rasterize. Is it a CC issue or is it a settings issue?
It depends as well on how you open the file.
We had the same issue on at least one of our MACs. If we dragged the actual file to Illustrator in the dock we had the same problems as you are experiencing. Right-clicking and then choosing "open with" solved it for us.

I think it may be embedding. Will give it a check on Monday!

I found this quickly:

"Just called Nazdar and talked to Dan Miller. He said the DA series with DA 176 catalyst is the best for EVA foam. It takes about 24 hours to cross link and should be printed through a 110"

Sounds like what you were about to do.

Ink and Chemicals / Yoga Mats?
« Last post by whitewater on April 26, 2024, 11:52:41 AM »
Has anyone printed on yoga mats before. We are doing a 1 color on white. I called Nazdar and left a message and the guy called back but I was with a customer and then he left a message.

I keep trying to call back but no one picks up.


I think he said in his message the DA series with a catalyst.


Has anyone used this ink series before?

I know this may be a dumb answer, but when we drag and drop into illy we have to " embed" it. Otherwise when we open on a different computer it is not there..

We save our mockups as a pdf in illy and we dont have a problem.

My art guy used to do that all the time, never embed and when I bring up on my computer, no art showing.

Is your artwork contained by the artboard? If it is outside of the artboard it won`t show when saved as pdf.
We save our mock-ups as .png files in Illustrator.
