Birthday Cards

The Publications Office has a stack of premade birthday cards in the metal cabinets. If you need to make some more follow the following workflow:

1. Choose the ship photo you wish to print. A collection of Ship photos are on the NAS server, under the 'public' folder.

2. Once you have selected the ship photo you want to print, double click on the image to open it in the Preview software

3. Open the print preview window

4. Change the printer to the Epson printer

5. If the image is already doubled, click print. If the image isn't already doubled, turn copies per page to 2, like below:

Being EXTRA

If you wish to make a birthday card that is more personalized, we have a set of gold foil in the Imaging Office.

3. Turn on the t-shirt heat press and let it reach temperature, ~375°F

4. Cover the design with a piece of foil
