Instructions
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
1. Obtain ticket blanks. You need to get tickets which have
|
|||
|
|
no show information printed on them. They must resemble real
|
|||
|
|
tickets or have the name of the ticket agency on it (like
|
|||
|
|
Ticketmaster). They must either be taken from a ticket
|
|||
|
|
distributor or counterfeitted with the help of a compliant
|
|||
|
|
print shop. If the blanks are coated with thermal <20>ink<6E>,
|
|||
|
|
then you can<61>t use a laser printer.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
2. Tape a blank lengthwise onto a sheet of paper, making sure
|
|||
|
|
it is centered and square with the page. Tape only a
|
|||
|
|
millimeter or so on each end. Make around 20 photocopies.
|
|||
|
|
These are your <20>practice tickets.<2E>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
3. Use the paint/draw software to make a positioning grid for
|
|||
|
|
the info on the ticket. Your goal is to get fake ticket info
|
|||
|
|
onto the ticket blank; this grid will allow you to position
|
|||
|
|
the text. The grid should be drawn, not painted, as the
|
|||
|
|
painting layer will be used to generate text. Feed the
|
|||
|
|
photocopies thru the printer and adjust the grid until it
|
|||
|
|
lines up perfectly. Then throw some text onto the grid and
|
|||
|
|
see what it looks like. It is essential that you be able to
|
|||
|
|
get rid of the grid (you don<6F>t want _that_ printed on the
|
|||
|
|
ticket!)
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
4. Save the file! Back it up! This is your template.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
5. Now the moment of truth. Print (on a clean sheet of
|
|||
|
|
paper) a copy of the positioning grid. Line up a ticket
|
|||
|
|
blank and tape it down taking care to tape no more than one
|
|||
|
|
millimeter or so on the front (leading) edge and the back
|
|||
|
|
edge. In the Draw/Paint program, paint up the fake ticket
|
|||
|
|
info (see below) and hide or delete the positioning grid.
|
|||
|
|
Print it out.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
6. If everything went ok, you now have a ticket. Congrats.

Tips
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
* Make tickets for shows with General Admission only. No
|
|||
|
|
seats! Besides, who wants to see a show in an arena.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
* It<49>s best to have a real ticket for reference, to get event
|
|||
|
|
codes and the ticketspiel right. Don<6F>t worry if the ticket
|
|||
|
|
blank is a different color, the promoter or venue probably
|
|||
|
|
won<EFBFBD>t care.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
* Don<6F>t feed thermal tickets through laser printers.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
* If you use an inkjet printer, make sure the ink and ticket
|
|||
|
|
are compatible. Slick tickets will cause water based ink to
|
|||
|
|
blob up. Use waterproof ink carts on the Deskjet if
|
|||
|
|
possible.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
* If you are questioned, say you bought the ticket from a
|
|||
|
|
scalper. If they won<6F>t let you in, find a scalper to sell
|
|||
|
|
the ticket to.
