Fakeyourdrank Washington ID QUESTION

yea, there is 4 colors in the heading ID, DL and both with enhancements



Laminator

Depends on state… I use glossy…. If needed could use buffer side of nail file. Those big, colorful , 4 sided, 7 textured nail files



Laminator

10 mil teslin. 7 mil lam in front. 10 in back. Vice versa. Depending on state and sec features on a 3rd over lam ply. Perhaps?



Hologram Foil ?? How/where/who? (Think WA tree)

…..also, what about the text on top of the tree ….??



Hologram Foil ?? How/where/who? (Think WA tree)

Yea I know I can …. But what about foil??



Making Substrate not respond to Uv detection

Hmmm. Thanks for the reply… Can you please elaborate some more? Like…. What’s the name of said materials?? And… Any vendor preference?

Thanks again, bro



Can any vendors pass the IDS 5000 scanner?

Some states have a data field that is randomly generated or secretly generated by given agency, so no way to populate/generate this number. For WA state for example, this number is called discrimination number (or something close)... it’s in front of ID -`



Template process?

Its done pain stakingly... Lol. Trust me! But seriously...just takes some time. A few hours maybe more. Depending on the state. So what you're referring to is called Guilloche pattern... There is software that can do this based on algorithms..



Templates

Barcode generator can be a free one. At least in my experience.. use PDF Center.. better yet... Code your own! In any case be sure that it has auto compaction.. (switched the the type of data it's encoding as it encodes ..to ensure proper codewords,



IS THERE A HOW-TO GUIDE FLOATING AROUND ....?

Yeah I have the old school knowledge I just need some information that's more of today. Regarding the PVC era of things.



Do I have to buy a separate printer for uv inks

And you don't necessarily need to use the exact same printer (in this case, anyway... due to fact that it would be overkill to just print UV with it.. IMO)



advice on laminator and teslin or pvc card for europe

What makes a laminator better than the others?? Different concept is to just heat both sides to get the adhesive to melt and stick properly without bubbles then shouldn't that be good enough?

I just want to know what I'm missing, that's all

Thanks in



IS THERE A HOW-TO GUIDE FLOATING AROUND ....?

Yea. Like a 'How-To' guide



[Review] idtop nWA

No I was just reassuring you of my answer to your question. Lol!

And indeed, it's odd ...other states don't do that



[Review] idtop nWA

Yup. I reside in said state ????



Teslin id issues / scan problem

Aamva.org Download latest driver's license identification guidelines pdf file. Read it, it will have your PDF for it 17 specifications and how to encode.



[Review] idtop nWA

The coloring in "Washington" looks blue-ish. Don't know if that's the camera's doing or what. Font is off. OVI is too far in weight font. The three washington seals in front are supposed to be raised and not OVI. Tree looks decent.. looks like the foil



Best nCA ID

Noticed on Your New WA.. your pdf417 needs to flipped and reversed... lol. Very nice though



info needed

New CA’s dob on mugshot is more of an engraved look and feel rather than a raised one.
How do we recreate these effects is my question??????



scannable barcodes

This is my question I've brought up a few times on here and I have determined so far that with certain States have a discriminator number which is generated randomly solely by that agency period meaning there's no way to replicate that number. And I think



Who sells WA pre card and WV pre card + holos?

Why the fuck would it be impossible to print UV on back??? Lol!
I must be missing something here. I dunno...??

I feel like the color , the yellow green seals on back is difficult, at least for me, to get spot on.

Tell me this, do any of them



ILLUSTRATOR vs Photoshop?

Hmm ok gotcha



ILLUSTRATOR vs Photoshop?

Yes I know how vector works. But was just curious if anyone has seen a difference on ID temps.,?? Photoshop prints text as vector as long as there in text format (tool) & not asterized.



ILLUSTRATOR vs Photoshop?

Sorry about all caps, it was an accident, LOL



ILLUSTRATOR vs Photoshop?

Oh yeah I'm well aware of Photoshop and its capabilities, been using it for a decade. I was just more curious to whether or not anyone used it in their process. What vector images are are images that are actually created via algorithms in calculating paths



ILLUSTRATOR vs Photoshop?

Yes I know it does on the screen, but what about when actually printing??



need a real WA (CURRENT) DRIVERS LICENSE BARCODE SCAN

As long as it's DL ...at this point I only have o21 ID for current temp



UV Printing inconsistent

Good shit! Yea let us know how it all works out! What do you do about bright ass PVC under UV light. Bright Blue makes it hard to see intended UV lines/design ???? Does that makes sense?
Like PVC is hyper white so it's too bright under UV lighting.



Is There an Actually SCANNABLE barcode (pdf417)

Is there a difference between whether or not it's an authentic, real ID number?



Is There an Actually SCANNABLE barcode (pdf417)

Then what does?



UV Printing inconsistent

No s***? So I also bought ink carts from them recently and for some reason things print really really dim as well so I'll have to try that! When you say you bought UV ink you bought a standalone bottle for refilling, correct?? And said colors?



Want a Great ID? Provide a Good Photo! - Here's How

I find that shadow behind head is acceptable and realistic ...so long as it's centered. And not too much. Earlobes essentially. That's it.



HOT FOIL....ISH. HOLO. HOW??

I'm not a vendor (yet). Maybe plans in future for it though. Yes it's like a metallic /interference red gold green ish combo

I tried ovi approach and it looks off. Wouldn't pass in state personally. Who knows. Perhaps I did it wrong?



HOT FOIL....ISH. HOLO. HOW??

Lol honestly I don't know for certain! I feel like somebody on some forum pointed it out. Lol! If you go to any craft store, you can find foiling (hobby) foil, it's very very thin. Ideally, per the hobby, you'd stamp your adhesive, rub on foil, keep pre



Is There an Actually SCANNABLE barcode (pdf417)

Like I mentioned - I m thinking discriminator number has a role in this



Is There an Actually SCANNABLE barcode (pdf417)

Ya, I know about the mirroring. How do you obtain the "setting"... I have state personally. I've replicated mine to a exact T!!!! Laid it over my original in PS, with 50% opacity ...and boom.
So I know how many columns & rows based on counting mine.



HOT FOIL....ISH. HOLO. HOW??

Thanks for reply ..I was more leaning towards how to make them.... ??? I suppose just buying some material.. cutting with like a cricut during machine



Is the fargo hdp5000 still a good printer for PVC and windowed states?

So I wanna look for 600 dpi color (obvy) for images?? Ok noted.



Is the fargo hdp5000 still a good printer for PVC and windowed states?

What do you recommend then? And why Fargo shitty?? Clarify please! Thanks in advance!



How to make barcodes ?

AAMVA.ORG. go there and download the '2016 standards' pdf. It will show you EXACTLY HOW TO ENCODE the 'pdf417' barcode. Read every line in that section. The is a lot of info that doesn't pertain in that guide so skip to page 42 (page 42 per the table of



PDF417 barcode tool

So.... has there been any improvement on barode generation?
What can make a barcode not pass if it is encoded perfectly?? May pdf417`s always are but still fail depending where scanned. Discriminator Number?? Perhaps?



UV Printing inconsistent

I also have an R280 , used strictly for UV prints... and I notice I couldn't print until I removed plugs. Which to me makes sense because of convection (I think lol) , like a door being able to close easier when windows are open , LOL It prints real fai
