I am new to this, so here goes! When printing on Dibond and there is White in the file, do you simply lay down a flood white layer and then print the Art on top of that? Or do you need to edit the file and call out the white as a spot or something? Thanks!

I went to work for a new company, as it turns out, they are looking in to an Apogee Upgrade to version 8. I talk them into giving Prinergy a chance, and they are Interested. The Kodak sales team made me look like a fool. We couldn't get them in our shop to sell us Prinergy if it depended on our...

We have a background image saved as a tif placed on a 17x8.5" page on its own layer. Variable fields on another layer, nothing too complicated. But when it gets on press the tif shifts half way off the page. Same thing happens with a jpg. Too many records to write a rich file. We are using...

Been using Prepress 7.1 for 3 months now, I was just told that this system doesn't do keep aways. I find this very hard to believe. Is this true???

I went from Prinergy Evo to Apogee at a new shop. Can some one tell me why the resolution is so low when viewing the flats in Results? And can't you render a PDF as grayscale?

We need to upgrade from OS 10.4.11 to 10.6, I'm wondering if there will be any issues with Prinergy 4.0, Preps 5.3, Acrobat 7 with the Kodak plugins. Maybe even InDesign CS3 with HP SmartStream which we use for Variable Data. Anybody know of any problems we need to be aware of? Thanks!

I'm going to try to set up a file with 600 records and export it as pdfs, take that in to Prinergy Evo and set it up for an offset run. This seems doable, any one tried anything like this? Danny

I have a RUSH job coming in that needs VD and 2 of 5 barcodes with number under it. Has any one used this barcode font? I am using InDesign CS3 with HPs Smartstream. I downloaded a free version and can't get it to work. HELP!!! Danny

We had the power go out yesterday. When it came back on one of our monitors wouldn't come back on. It's a Cinema HD Display. It had a blinking light. I've been told it's better to buy a new one due to high repair cost. Anyone have any input

We just pulled a job off press after noticing type was missing. File supplied as a PDF from CS4. All type was on the SpinJet Proof, two characters we're missing on the Epson. This was a 4 color job, Refined CMYK in Prinergy Evo. Virtual Proofs looked good at 1200 dpi. Remade Virtual Proofs at...

I need to have a PC with Direct Smile backup over night, every night. I am going to install another hard drive to back up to, but don't know what software I need to do the auto backup. This is probably real easy, but I've never done it . . . Thanks!!! Danny

I was having problems with Prinergy, did a restore, and now all the marks are gray in Preps! (5.3) After re-rendering the 4/C colorbar, it shows up. Did the same for reg mark, looks good, but now shifts left about half an inch after making and viewing VPS. Wacko! Any help? Danny
