    Angry Am I the only one who hates preps 6 and misses preps 5?

    I waited almost one year before say anything, I hoped I would get use to it, but I still hate it.
    I want preps 5 back. And for Intel.

    I agree! We've switched from Mac's to PC's in certain areas because we can run Preps 5.

    I don't understand why you just can't go back to your Preps 5.3.3 installation on a mac. Are you on a different dongle, or something like that?

    I run Preps 5.3.3 as a stand alone application to produce plate size pdfs that are then manually down loaded to a Trueflow rip for CTP output. Works great once you know the bugs, and when it needs to be restarted.

    My guess would be the fact that Preps 5 is a PPC app and won't run on newest Mac OS.

    I can't understand how Kodak can buy one of the best imposition software available and let there engineers ruin it. Bring back Preps 5.

    I think they outsourced it to China somewhere.
    Kodak laid off most of their development team and spread software all over the world, Israel, China, India, etc..
