How it is that Integrity Counts Part #2

September 22, 2009 14:45 by Tyler

 

Do it when you say your going to do it!

One of my life pet peeves is when someone tells me something willbe done and then it's not. Barring any sort of complete disaster, I generally don’tunderstand why it didn’t get done.  In my life, My family always comefirst.. But, if i promise or even tell someone something will be done.. Youbetter count on it getting done! The companies that i like to work with arecompanies that will go the extra mile and that will do whatever it takes to GETTHE JOB DONE.

Last week a customer emailed me at 1AM his time to ask about thetime table for his decals. I was at my home office doing some graphic design. Ilooked up the printing schedule and replied. He then replied.."I can'tbelieve you’re up".  Me Either.. But in all reality i was doinggraphic design for a customer whom I promised that it would be done the nextday! So I stayed up and did it!

 With 123Decal it's about Integrity, it's about printing theright product at the right time.. On Time. It's about doing what you say yourgoing to do and delivering on schedule .

Standardized Terms in the Decal Industry

May 14, 2009 17:11 by Tyler

My Head Spins some days..... one of the biggest annoyanyces in the printing industry is the NON-Standardization of terms.

Think about this: what is the difference to profile cut vs. procut? NOTHING... to some profile cut means something completely different. So I make the Clarion Call to the industry to standadize your terms. Since no one else will ever take the iniative to do this.. I will...See i am a thought leader afterall. I think that it's important to note that 123Decal.com respects all vendor and hope they will conform to our language..Ya Right. :)

The Terms:

 Pro-cut - A procut decal, is a very common decal that has only the shape around it and any middle parts removed. This is very common in lettering for car windows. These Custom Decals are generally a little pricy because they require a little more time and effor to product. The Process is that you print it, weed it(remove un needed parts) and Masked it. Then apply it! Please note that a PRO-CUT decal can also be called a PROFILE CUT.  

 Die-Cut - These is where the decal is cut out around the edge of the whole decal. In all technicallity a "Die Cut Decal" could be a circle, square, or anyother random shape. These are usually cut by using a Die that the pre fabricated before the cutting begins after printing. Die's can be very costly. Some slick digital printers and plotters can Cut throught the vinyl without having to use a DIE. Praise these guys for their great work.

Kiss-Cut - No i dont mean razor blade lips. A kiss cut decal is interesting becuause it is similar to the DIE CUT decals but they are not CUT all the way throught the vinyl. You usually have to peel it out as you see in this image. It helps to make it easy to protect the decal and to seperate it from the vinyl backing, plus it usually faster and cheaper to produce.

Well either way, we just hope you will get your Custom Decals from 123Decal.com . We have buckets full of happy customers!

 

Thanks,

Tyler 123Decal.com

What is Vectored Artwork?

May 5, 2009 14:29 by Tyler

 In the print world, a word that you will here thrown around a lot is Vector art. "Do you have Vector Art". Many companys charge a fee to "vector your art" for you. When you give a machine artwork to print you give it Vectored art. Some machines will accept the lesser version called Raster Artwork.  

 

Vector Art

The idea behind vector art is to use mathmatical formulas to actually print, by using lines. Thus you have an exact measurement of where the print goes in relationship to the Custom Decal or Banner you are printing. Most decal artwork must be produced in vector format. When using the screen printing process, you must use vector artwork for print. Notice in the image above the zoom is at 4800% but it's still crystal clear and straight even lines.

Raster Art

When you have raster art the printed does not read it. Some digital printers can print using raster art and if the decal artwork is produced to the right size and the right DPI then you may be okay, but it's not recommended. 123Decal has professional graphic designers who do artwork and can vector your artwork for you. Notice in the raster art the grainy artwork.

 

So the next time you have a custom decal project, or banners, or any type of print. Use 123Decal but when we ask for vector art, you'll understand why. It's only for your protection and to give you the best quality products.

 Thanks,

Tyler,
