I do the input of jobs in a print on demand dept. I continually have problems with transparency and/or layer issues, ie, text (many time with a drop shadow) knocking out the background.
I am printing from a Fiery RIP to a Konica-Minolta 6500.
I have tried all kinds of settings in Acrobat (7&8) and PitStop (7.2). I have not found a solution with those programs.
The only way to solve the problem is open the PDF in Photoshop and flatten it and then save it back to a PDF.
Are there settings that I can use in Acrobat/PitStop to resolve this?
Do I need to have the designers use different settings when creating the PDFs? They use the export to pdf features which I have always had trouble with but I can't get them to change their ways.
Suggestions/answers...anything.
Dov, I know if anyone has the answer it's you. I've been a fan for many years.
Thanks in advance,
Gerry
