I agree it is probably the fonts not embedded properly. It seems like it usually occurs in a poorly designed PDF ad in the middle of a booklet, making it hard to catch sometimes. Usually converting to outlines works fine, I just wasnt sure if there was anything in the rip that could help...

I have been coming across some font issues after refining pages in Prinergy where fonts will come out as boxes. Does anyone know what causes this? I am new to prinergy and have not had any training, just learned by myself after losing our prepress guy. I have always used rampage in the past and...

Go to your local bulk mail office and talk with one of the workers, they are usually very resourceful. Get a quick reference manual, use pe.usps.com for more in depth information.

Check out Stouse, we use them for Business Card Magnets and I know they do some plastic items.

The actual mixing formula. For some 2-Color wedding invitations.

We have a job in that is using a Pantone Pastel color, but we can't find a Pastel Formula Guide anywhere in the shop. Can anyone give me the formula for PMS 9203? Thanks

I just noticed the default FPO Destination on the Ripping Profile was changed. I changed it to the main folder on our server and now it is working again. The folder it was changed to yesterday is a valid folder, so I'm still not too sure why it would cause Rampage to quit.

When I click "Network Path..." to choose my FPO Destination, Rampage either freezes and/or unexpectedly quits. It worked fine for the first few jobs yesterday, then it started doing this all of a sudden. Everything works fine my other Mac. Everything except choosing the Network Path works fine...

Just curious, what kind of creasing machine do you have? Is it pretty easy and reliable to use? I'm looking for one to use for mockups and short runs so we don't have to set up our windmill or die cutter to run only 50 sheets.

Any bonus points for the number of fingers lost in the process?

We recently did a large format production schedule for a customer. We printed the schedule on our Epson then bought a sheet of Dry Erase Plus and adhered it to the print. It went on really easy with the applicator squeegee they supplied. The film works great too. You can use just about...

I tried that and it wouldn't read our hardware key and just popped up with an error saying there was a problem with our license and to contact Kodak. Luckily I found a txt file with our SSN buried inside of a folder with a bunch of junk. Re-installed Preps from the installer I downloaded and...

I am setting up a new Mac in our prepress and we use a dongle to run Preps on multiple Macs. I have installed Preps on the new Mac but it is asking me for my company info and password to set it up. The other computers were already set up before I started working here and I can't find any CDs or...

We are doing a 3' x 6' canvas poster for a customer. Luckily the roll of canvas that we've had sitting her for years has about 84" left on it. Lucky us! ....until this morning when he asked for a second one. Since we pretty much never do any convas jobs, I'm trying to find a short roll of...

When I back a job up using the MPTray, the top feed roller will leave a smudge mark. Its from the first roller on the top. It happenes when the first sheet feeds all the way into the printer and it starts to feed the second sheet. It seems to only be really noticeable when I'm running 11x17 or...
