    New (Free) Design & Imposition APP released by HiFlow

    I was able to download it. It requests a license key which they say they'll email, but I haven't received the key in my inbox or spam folder.

    3-d wall decorations done with my equipment?

    I do indeed know what a record store is! In my sample piece we used our Colex flatbed cutter to trim two sides of each rectangle, then the score.crease wheel to score the 3rd side of the triangle. From there, a lot of manual folding upward of triangles to get the final look.

    3-d wall decorations done with my equipment?

    We did these on our Colex Sharpcut flatbed cutter/cnc. Cuts and scores. Slid some holographic stock underneath for a cool effect. I paid for the template online.

    OSX vs Windows 10 for Pre-Press...

    I have been using Parallels on a Macbook Pro for prepress since about 2011, and have never looked back. I get two computers in one, can use my Adobe CC license for both platforms and bam, we're ready for any client file or artwork. I'm actually in Windows 90% of the time, but it's like the Mac...

    I need a Wide format printer that die cuts

    Roland XC-540 should do, but you'd have to haggle. They' going for about $13K USED now.

    MIS/Workflow for Indigo, Screen CTP, Fiery, and Prisma

    This is an interesting thread because we operate pretty much the same: PDF/Pitstop for digital color, Xerox Makereasy for digital b/w, and Trueflow for offset. Kodak Prinergy comes to mind, but I'm not certain about the cutter portion. Keep us updated.

    G-Seven Calc v2.1

    Erik, I'm interested in your opinion. If G7 is a waste and distraction, what would you suggest people do instead? We haven't gone G7, in part because of cost, but if there are alternatives, I'm all ears.

    8 fields to be populated with ONE barcode

    My client would like their boxes of product labeled with a barcode they could scan and populate a spreadsheet.

    HP 7500 Pros and Cons?

    Just about a year later I return to this thread, and my opinion on the Indigo has soured. I can certainly empathize with the person who stated that a buyter should install TWO Indigos to ensure that one stays running. We are experiencing both recurring and new problems with our press continually...
