Thank You for all the suggestions as you all know trying to change how the customer prepares files is impossible. Keep in mind that this is a InDesign doc CS4 or CS5 that has a Dieline placed in it by the customer which is a Illustrator file. I can not tell you if it is a AI or EPS. What I am...

We have 2 jobs where when we change a color in the Illustrator file which happens to be a die. When it updates in InDesign Doc it changes size or the position moves. Usually the size change is less that 1% so on large jobs it is difficult to see that it changed. Is there a preference that needs...

We have a Xerox 700 bought a year ago there are 2.3 million sheets of paper through it 8.5x11 to 12x18. It has provided good service and quality. The main selling point has been the service I rate the service as very good. Good response time and knowledgeable Techs.

Customer file had a Vignette created in Indesign CS4 Linear cmyk It could not get through the trapping module of Nexus 9.5. The only way we could get it to work was to create a Photoshop Eps file of the Vignette and replace it in the Indesign Doc. It then went through without an issue. Anyone...
