Can anyone open a .SIG file? Webpages that I looked up said that it was created by Print Shop ...

Either that or it's an e-mail sig.  :undecided:

You can try this site and see if it will convert it to PDF.

I tried that yesterday. No dice.

Oh well, I do have an inkjet printout that I could scan if I have to.  :puke:

I ended up scanning the inkjet and doing a live trace in Illy just so we could get to work on the ad. I e-mailed you the file delooch. It would be good to have a properly (?) converted version of the .SIG on file.

Hey Rat,

PM me the file too. I have a little free time to play with it; doing archives right now.

well that was an exercise in futility..

sorry rat, i thought she could at least do that, but not how i requested.  the metadata in the file says its a "PrintMaster Gold Document" - whatever the hell that is..

Ill email you what she sent me, totally worthless..

oh, her second attempt was even better  :shoots_self:

i remember now why i have a job here.
UPDATE!!! she's on a mission to make this work, her last comment:

"Here's another one without the line and top paw lined up.  How's the quality?"

again, i just asked her to open the f'n thing, and create a high print quality PDF. not re-invent the wheel.

Thanks for all the offers for help folks.  :grin:

I got so busy that I forgot to check back with you later in the day.  :embarrassed:

The live trace of the inkjet is going to work OK, especially since the logo is going to be much smaller than what I scanned from in the final ad.

I can just hear the customer now.... "You're a print shop and you can't open a Print Shop file?"

"What kind of shop is this? This is an industry standard file format." Spewed at me once when I told a custy we don't have WordPerfect®.

Hung out with one of my friends over the weekend, and she was telling me how much she loved Publisher and hated the fact it wasn't on her new computer. "You're part of the problem," was what I told her, and proceeded to lecture her for 15 minutes about why people like here are why I am still gainfully employed in this day and age.
