Understanding the Underbase Effect within the SAi FlexiPRINT RTUV 22 Software (Part 2)

flexiprint underbase effect

Now when it comes to Printing, having a good understanding of an Underbase and its uses is quite important.

The Underbase however even though it is pretty straight forward, it’s setup might change a bit depending on the desired outcome.

Alright guys, In today's video, we're gonna be looking at adding a underbase to our design and this will be with in flexi print. But before that, let's have a quick intro first. So today's video can be found on softwaretraining.co.za. co dot Z A. We make short and easy to watch problem solving videos and we also have daily updates. Now, if we add into the programme here. So now when it comes to the underbase, this is kind of, uh let's say you wanna print on like, a different colour or like a black and you wanna make sure your colours are vibrant because printing some colours on black is gonna be very washed out. Then what you do is you add a underbase, which is pretty much gonna add a white layer right around the border or inside the border of your design that will be, um, used to be printed on. So then all the colours will be way more vibrant, and the print will also be a little bit more. Uh, how can I say robust and, uh, a solid in that case? So then let's say we've got this little Grammy. I'm gonna just add a little background. Just make it like a blue and send this right to the back order to back. Here we go. So let's say we're printing on this, but we want a nice little, uh, underbase on this. And then what we're gonna do is select our design. Then we wanna go to our main menu on top. Zoom here for you guys, so main menu affects. Then you see where you have this option underbase Now, uh, under the under base feature in case So we've got two different options here. We've got solid underbase. This will be used for, like, vector designs and text and so forth. So it'll pretty much just be a solid colour. Then we've got a variable on the base and this you'll use on bit maps and uh, perhaps what, like gradients and so forth, So the actual underbase will have a variation in it to help accommodate the colours. Then we're just gonna go here for the solid, straightforward Gonna click that And what's gonna happen is here on our design central panel on the right. We will have some options we can set. Now. We, uh this will be setting the distance of the actual underbase. And then we'll have two different types of underbase. So we've got the bleed and the choke. So the bleed This will take your, uh how can I say your underbase to the outside of the design as we can see here? If I had to put it to choke, it's gonna pull it inside. So now let's say we were printing on a black shirt. Then what we can do is we use a choke, and we do it on this border because we don't want white to show on the rim of it. You know, a little bit messy. But perhaps you're going on white or something else. Then you might wanna take it, push it a little bit to the outside. I'm just doing mine quite extreme here, so we can see the effect then under here, we've got an option called with holes. So if I had to click this, then all the halls will still be open. If there's any holes like this, obviously, depending on the distance, you've set your actual, uh, choke or bleed, whichever you're using. In our case, we are setting the bleed. So I don't think our holes are gonna be open or with holes. If you deselect this, then, um, it will just do. This is a solid shape and any holes in the inside it's gonna ignore. So depending on what you're going for, you might want to adjust that. So you obviously can sit your actual holes. So that way the edges reacts. I like keeping it normally on the smooth. But if you're looking on a sharp design, you could change that as well. Then under that, we've got the underbase. This one is important. Keep that on the under base because we've got some different options, finishes and so forth, so this will be under base. And then once you say, confirm the little right mark, what this is gonna do, it's actually gonna compound this to your design. So as you can see, it's currently a part of it. And that will be because, like the same way under range, we've got group. We've got compound as well, and then that will actually, like I said, it will compound the actual under bases to your design, and most programmes should be able to, at least these days understand that it's got a underbase under it. It's just the way it's kind of standard these days, so I wouldn't worry about it too much. But yeah, so then that's the way you can add underbase and make sure your colours on your prints are nice and vibrant, depending on your backdrop. So dark backdrop, I would definitely recommend adding a underbase. But in most cases, I would just add an underbase because it just makes your design look better. But yeah, otherwise, in the meanwhile, though, before we head on, if we go here to softwaretraining.co.za. co dot Z a, you guys will notice. We've got a variety of different Softwares we do cover, and you can also isolate your search on the top, right? If you do not, however, find the training videos you're looking for, just simply go. Yeah, request the training video, fill in the mini form, and then we'll do our best try and make that for you. But otherwise thanks guys for watching and cheers
