Cincinnati Prographics Printing

I heard that service bureuaus don’t like true type fonts? They tend to prefer type 1. Is it true?

I’m new to using Illustrator to create vector graphics saved as an EPS file. What I have is some white text that has a red border around each letter. When I select all the text, then go to the type menu and choose "create outlines", each letter is outlined as one object. Shouldn’t the white outline be one object, and the solid red color inside the outline be another? Just don’t want to send the EPS file to the printing company and have trouble.

Thanks for the help!

I would love to hear from anyone who owns or has worked for a shirt design company.

Our firm needs a printer to print on paper card of Business card size (3.5x5cm). The printer should be able to print on cards singly, not in sheets. Is there such a printer available?

I have been in the small offset field for over 25 years. I have seen many changes over the last 5-10 years with the advent of digital technology. Now there are fewer jobs for press operators and many shops are even choosing to reduce equipment and staff and farm out much of their work.

Is there a future in this business for a top-knotch press operator, or should I consider changing over the next few years? Or, is there a change I can make within the field? Is it possible that my career may continue for the next 20 years? My experience ranges from running little old AB Dick duplicators to a Ryobi 3304 (small 4 color press).

What would you say is the future for the small commercial printing business?

I just started my own photography business and I am looking for a printing company that could provide the following:

1) "traditional" photo greeting cards on photo paper (like the ones they sell at Sam’s Club, Walgreen’s, etc)

2) Press printed folded holiday cards

3) No-fold holiday cards (press printed) where I can put photos on the front and back.

I want to be able to put templates on my website so that my customers can choose.

Thanks!

when i was in high school and working through the boces program in graphic communications we used a different kind of screen printing that i cant seem to find any where. the screening came on a roll and it was green colored, you unroled it and cut to size of your design. the screen was already pre emulsioned then you just took a printed out black and white design and placed it onto the back of the screen and ran it through this box that kinda looked like a printer. when the two came out you simply peeled the picture off the back and the emulsion came off on the blck leaving your image on the screen. then all you had to do was frame it and begin printing. i have not seen any of these things since, neither the rolls of screening or the machines. i dont remeber the name of the machine its been since the late 90′s… any suggestions??? thanks in advance…
