Efficiency at last!


it's not efficient at all.


Notice that you just *guess* nospam, and you guessed wrong.
Again.

I only speak fact which any sentient adult can easily verify.

The efficiency is tremendous - but - as you are aware - you can't get this
functionality on the Mac. The efficiency is only available on Windows.

0. Only one person has to deal with fonts, and that's the creator of the
Windows MS Office document, a screenshot of which is produced here.
http://i.cubeupload.com/pK8NQE.gif

*Template Creator*
1. That one template is mailed to a score of neighbors, all of whom are on
Windows, none of whom have to deal with installing fonts. All they need to
do is use the embedded font functionality (not available on the Mac) where
they're instructed to modify anything they want except the bottom line and
the outside border.

Notice that the score of users doesn't have any learning curve whatsoever,
and they can still collaborate (as long as they're not on the Mac)
perfectly efficiently.

*Many People*
2. They each mail an assembler (who happens to be me but it could just as
well have been the original creator) the updates, who assembles them into a
single PPT file with embedded fonts, and then who saves them as a PDF
(since Adobe Illustrator can't read PowerPoint files), where the assembler
hands the shop the final layout.

*Print Shop*
3. The shop reads in the PDF into Mac Adobe Illustrator, substitutes the
default font to the Roadgeek 2005 Series B font, and voila, the layout is
perfect inside of AI, where it can then be printed to the Vinyl Cutter
using a cut extension in Adobe Illustrator.

How can any sentient adult object to this tremendous efficiency?
Only you object to the efficiency.

Why?
I don't know why.

I suspect your objections to efficiency could be as simple as you know
*the Mac doesn't have this collaborative functionality*

Again, you can only guess.
And you guessed wrong.

Any sentient adult can follow the efficiency logic of the *facts*.
http://i.cubeupload.com/pK8NQE.gif

1. One *Template Creator* works on the original
2. Many *People Collaborate* on faithful copies
3. One *Print Shop* prints the faithful layout

I suspect your objections to efficiency could be as simple as you know what
all Mac owners know, which is that *you just can't do this using the Mac".

nonsense. not only can it be done on a mac, but more efficiently with
fewer steps than your cluster**** solution *and* produce higher quality
results. it can even be done on an ipad or iphone.

you refuse to admit it because: troll.

no difference.


Bananas are readily available but they are not generally free. That is
why it can be misleading to say they are freely available.


bananas are not software


They are nouns. So too is 'Adobe illustrator'. My statement was
concerned with the use/misuse of the English language.

you are pirating it.

Not necessarily.

yes necessarily.


Even if he already has a license?


he doesn't and you know it.


I've ploughed through much of his junk and found nothing to suggest
that he has a copy of Illustrator, let alone that he has pirated it.
As far as I can tell the discussion is in the general case, in which
case neither the presence or absence of a license can be assumed.

Not necessarily.

If you're downloading the tweaked versions from Adobe without actually
owning a licence, then yes, you are pirating it. The instructions on
Aodbe's download page specifically say you have to already own a
licence.


That was more or less my point. While piracy was probable it is not
necessarily piracy in every case. In saying "you are pirating it"
nospam had jumped to a conclusion which was not necessarily correct.


nope. i explained that.

the reality is that 'ultred' doesn't have a license and is pirating it.


Is he even using it?

good point. all nouns are distributed in the same way software is.

another hour or so and my groceries should be finished downloading.

So too is 'Adobe illustrator'. My statement was

as well it should, since you greatly misused it.

you are pirating it.

Not necessarily.

yes necessarily.

he doesn't and you know it.

exactly the point.

let alone that he has pirated it.


since it's clear that he never bought cs2, downloading it is pirating
it.

he also has admitted to pirating a wide variety of other stuff, so this
is not any sort of surprise.

As far as I can tell the discussion is in the general case, in which
case neither the presence or absence of a license can be assumed.


assumed is the wrong word. no assumptions are necessary.

based on what he's written in this thread and countless others, it's
*quite* clear what he's doing.

he claims to have used it, however, that's irrelevant. since he never
bought it in the first place, he is not entitled to legally download
it.

The post says that he is creating the sign in Powerpoint and that it
needs to read by Illustrator in the Mac.

I need to dig out my copy of Illustrator which I bought many years ago
at a previous job. I probably used it twice, but I needed to have it for
a specific task. It probably won't even work with WIndows 10.

There are some programs that I've found hard to believe they are still
being used. Corel Draw is the format that many laser cutters require.

The sentence under discussion says nothing about downloading.

This from the guy who thinks that parsing applies only to software.

yes necessarily.

he doesn't and you know it.

So we don't know either way.

let alone that he has pirated it.

Where is your evidence?

The clarity is an inference.
