which version you on Gorbital?
- mayo0
in your print menu (either version i believe) look under "output". there should be a box to check. does this answer your question or am i smoking crack again?

nice try mrdob, but my goatee isn't as neatly trimmed! Frame someone else.
:P

how did the Harley berfday go? we just had Street Vibrations here.

It was ok, I was in chicago for most of it helping a friend move. But, I live right downtown so the days I was here, there were entire gangs of harley guys tearing up the streets until 6am, screaming and yelling, doing burners in the street. Its all good though because they say my city made like $40 million that weekend. How was Street Vibrations?
- Gorbie0
$40 mil?
Does your town tax metamphetamine sales? :)
Mayo... I'm not seeing what you're talking about. Maybe to clarify... I have a B&W image I want to overprint on a red pattern.
Am I smoking crack?

thats funny about the meth, because most of these guys looked like dentists. Seemed that they had a good time, Milwaukee is pretty fun if you like to drink.

what version are you on Gorbie-ghast? if you're on 1.5, look at the page with the trapping options. i think it's there (sorry, i'm on 2 and don't remember 1.5).
mrdob, we were projecting to make half that for the weekend. was yours a week or weekend? And if you l ike drinking, Nevada is 24 hours of alcohol 7 days a week.

Mayo, I'm on version 2 aswell.
I can see how you would define a solid fill color to overprint - but not an image....
I know this is possible, cause I'm looking at a file from a client that did it. I just can't tell HOW?

Ooutput>simulate overprint
yes? no? yes? yes!

mayo, the organized events were happening from thurs-monday (because it was a holiday) but there were guys on bikes here for like a week. Also, this was the 100th anniversary thang so maybe that had something to do with it. One thing I know for sure is that there were alot of people from south of the mason-dixon line up here!

awesome mrdobolina. did it make you wanna get a bike?
- mrdobolina0
kinda, not a harley necessarily. Buell's are nice though.
- Gorbie0
no. i'm not seeing what you're talking about.
I see the option when I go to File -> Print -> Output -> Simulate overprint
but that doesn't seem to do what I'm trying to do.
Is this crack good stuff or what!
- Gorbie0
Buell's are cool. I like the way they sound.
- mayo0
god bless crack. amen.

Buell is located not real far from me, I used to work at waterford precision cycles, back in the day. They make world class mountain bike and touring frames. So Eric Buell used to have us paint his original gastanks before they were done at the harley plant. I also know a guy that designs fairings for Buell. Man those bikes are nice.
You can get a low end buell for like 6 g's. Been looking at them alot.
