Oh, sorry. You said "action list" so I assumed you meant you were using Pitstop. pd

Hi emreimanc, There is an Action List command named, "Add Page to Document" that will add a blank page to the PDF: Best regards, pd

@PrintHusky, what is this software you speak of? pd

Although I don't have an answer, are they discontinuing the N95 plate?

Yes, Apogee can export 1 bit Tiff images using the 'TIFF Platesetter' task processor. If you go into 'System Overview', look under the 'Output' column and see if you have the following task processor: If it's there, you just have to configure it and add it to your job ticket. If it's not...
