The Magic of Jabee

Friday, September 21, 2007

I had a hell day. First the tarp that was supposedly for Pasteleria was messed up (partly because of the RGB vs CMYK printing). I tried out a new large format printing company near our house and they messed up the color (brown turned into green) because they use RGB—I checked the freakin' colors on the PC before printout and the colors were fine. But hell, I paid Php 250 for a tarp I couldn't use. Well…I got my Php 250 worth. I'm stickin' with Signex or GA.

They even asked me, "Mam san po ba kayo nagpapa-print?" And I said, "Sa Signex Makati." To which they aptly replied, "Eh, malaki po kasi yung gamit nila na machine e, kami maliit lang. And RGB kami." I'm surprised a company uses RGB and not CMYK–isn't CMYK the standard? To think that they have all the Motorola and F&H collats splattered on their walls. Lekat pala sila.

And then, I decided to try out Kodak instead of Digiprint (where I normally print out my tags and business cards—-my mistake) to print my 8×10 ad for my acrylic frame which will be placed on my booth. And Kodak said, "Mam we don't have paper na e. Come back na lang later," to which I respectfully obliged. And when I got the pics 2 hours later, it wasn't even printed properly—the images and text were pixelized and weren't even centered on the paper. Ano ba! Php 360 in one day down the drain. I was so irate!!!

I called Mark and then let out my frustrations (because it was HE who suggested that wretched printing place). Anyway, after about 2 hours, he texted and said, "Baby, malamig na ba ulo mo?" And I said, "NO! I am still f*cked up."

But then after a while he called and said that he was bringing US dinner (we were busy preparing for the bazaar that I have been cutting stickers and wrapping boxes for hours…

Ah…the magic of Jabee. It was so nice to see Mark. I am almost calm now. But I still have some errands to do tomorrow. Let's see…
