Hi everyone, I’m Doug Downey on behalf of Expert Village, I’m here today to show you
how to digitally print vinyl banners. Here is the software that comes with your Rollin
printers. It’s called, Versa Works as well. We used to send our designs to the printer;
this is one we’ve worked on, just a sample one we’ve been playing around with so if
you click on that, that design, you’ll see that the width of the material that we have
to print. So this will be the rollers on the outside of the grommets. We have 30.39 inches
to play with, even though the material from the outside to the outside is 32.5 inches,
our actual printable area on the inside of the grommets is 30.4 inches. So now we’ll
minimize this and we’ll go into Corel Draw and you’ll see here’s our template with
our 32.5 inches times 120. So what I usually do is, I’ll just take the little rectangle,
draw it on there and I’ll make it 30.4 inches up in here, by, and we’ll change this to
120 inches, and then we’ll just center it on our page and I’ll just hit a light color
so you can see. See the difference of where it’s going to run on and then we’ll just
center it underneath our copy. So now if you take your copy and click on your copy and
center it on here, onto that gray panel, which now what I’ll do is I’ll get rid of that
back one and then this is the actual printable area, this gray area which I’ll switch back
to white. I’ll take away the outline and then, now if we take that whole thing there,
now it’s 30.4 inches by 120 inches and now we’ll export that as a tif and we’ll just
here, we’ll just click on “A”, and then we’ll export that as a one hundred-fifty
dpi, RGB, just send it to the printer.
