Immediately after transfer, safe-eject the flash drive and remove. <em>Every time you try to reboot a computer with a flash drive still mounted, Elon Musk beats a baby seal with a baseball bat! <\/em>Please don&#8217;t let that happen!<\/mark><\/strong> <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Open your .svg file in Inkscape. If the file does not look correct, try the .pdf instead. If that also looks janky, go back to your .ai file and inspect. <strong><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-red-color\">NOTE: you can technically run the file out of Illustrator, but it&#8217;s much simpler to work with Inkscape.<\/mark><\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>ALWAYS inspect the file just before printing. Look for duplicate vectors, too-small detail, or items that did not transfer correctly. Ask a monitor for assistance if you are unsure about the file.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>When running from a roll, ALWAYS re-set the art-board size to <strong>27 inches wide X 63 high<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>After resizing, ALWAYS group and move your vector work to the BOTTOM of this art-board.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Always do a blade test before running a job, and aways check the vinyl roll or sheet for alignment.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Run your job. The tool works fast. If something goes wrong you can shut it down quickly and save vinyl from being wasted.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Post-production\"><\/span>Post-production<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The machine is fast, but post-production can be slow.
