    Thank you for this video ! I’m currently training myself for better design/production skills and this was definitely a weak spot for me until now. Keep up the great content !

    Great Video! I just have a question, in minutes 3:51 and after that when you were picking the magenta color I noticed it was RGB not CMYK even though the project's supposed to be for printing.. can you please explain this part because i got really confused. Thank you!

      The magenta color is just bright to stand out, not for CMYK separations. It can be any hue as long as it's a spot color.

    i hope illustrator would create an automatic countor like the one in vinylmaster or signmaster. Maybe a plugin.

    Hi,
    I keep getting a dubble cutcontour line, even if i follow all your steps. Its a real small - but double line. When i use ctrl + y, it only shows 1 line and not two. But my printer keeps cutting 2 lines really near eachother. Any idea how to solve this?

    I have a 'CutContour' AND 'CutPath' in illustrator. Both are Magenta. What is the difference?

    Hello, do you know how I can add registration marks in illustrator? I'm using i-Cut software and I'm unsure how to add them in for print/cut & what the marks should be separated as (like if placed into another layer, what it should be named, what size should the marks be, where to place them, how many, etc.)... unless maybe there is an addon or plugins/extension for Illustrator to use with iCut? Thanks

    What is a perf cut you mentioned at 04:12 ?

    • @fr000bify
      @fr000bify Год назад

      I think the perf cut is just a bounding box for easy weeding,so if you print loads they will all be in the seperate little 7" box

      @@fr000bify , If so, then should the 'perf cut' line be a magenta line? How do you do this line?.. and also.. should it be inside your bleed? Thanks for your reply.

      @@fr000bify Also... Does a 'print ready file' (like a label/sticker) need BOTH a 'PerfCutContour' line AND a 'CutContour' line? Appreciate the help.

    Damn any video I found for contour shows me how stupid and complicated AI is. It should be: select object click contur with distance and you are ready.

    Your videos with the music is distracting and you are moving to fast through the steps.

      Seems as though you’re the only one struggling everyone else is having a fine time with the tutorial so maybe mute and turn on subtitles or slow down the video…. Clearly it’s not their fault when everyone else has understood thus far
