I might be putting 2 and 2 together and getting 5 but, is Dov inferring that if you place an LZW TIFF into Indd and Export PDF you get ZIP or JPEG compression. Dov also said for storage of Masters; "For that purpose, personally, I typically use ZIP-compressed TIFF with ICC color-managed 16...

The best way I think is Prinergy Workstation or similar where you can Map any Separation colours to any other. You can Map spot inks in Pitstop but its not as intuative and I'm not sure about cmyk. You can Map spot inks InDesign. Mapping will retain the tint weight but when you have artwork in...

first and last pdf pages often have different trim box size to the rest when spreads is checked on Export.

Have a look at the dots with a microscope. Also find some fine text in a 100% colour. I've seen Ryobi press results where parts of the shape of the dot on the plate are missing or weak in the print, also it shows in a piece of fine text or solid stroke as gaps. I can't remember exactly what they...

Prinergy needs an extra module to retain the Layers, I think called Versioning. Prinergy 1st refine will honour the layer settings in the pdf but the refined pdf will have all the content on one layer. You can edit those Layer settings up front in Acrobat Pro, visibility and printing, but if...

I'm on Mojave and the latest Acrobat DC. I've got Pitstop and Prinergy Plugins. My set up is to alt click on the green traffic light to maximise the Window to fill the screen but leave the Contextual Menu across the top, I then have documents open full screen in Tabs at the top. Its useful for...

thanks to you too abc

abc please can you add this as a feature request. I needed 5mm bleed which pitstop does, but needed the marks offset 5mm rather than the standard 2 and a bit, I found this thread so am sorted now with Jonasukulore's .eals . I'd ideally like to be able to set the bleed and offsets in the Clean...

I had a Kodak support calI a couple of weeks ago about a font which wouldn't 1st refine in Prinergy 8.3 but would with 8.4. When I asked about being unable to find the GUA forums, the Kodak engineer in the UK thought that the GUA forum links had never worked from Europe. Let me know when they...

my fave (even tho' vermilion is missing) http://www.datapointed.net/visualizations/color/xkcd-common-names-strata-graph/

Very sad news. Matt posted on several forums always with good humour. One of the Giants on whose shoulders we can stand. RIP.

the chemical component you require can be found on a new unexposed plate. Unfortunately I don't know how to transfer it from the new plate to your exposed plate :unsure:

"folded panels being slightly unequal" I would think is referring to a 6pp roll fold finished size A4 would be typically set up as a spread with panel sizes 209-210-210 or 208-210-210 whereas a concertina or Z fold would typically be set up with equal panel sizes 210-210-210 If you have a throw...

At Stage 1 take off the Gripper Margin(s) and Colour bar (Height may also include a white margin top and bottom) from your sheet size. as an example this could be 12mmGrip + 6mm Colour Bar +1mm +1mm (White Margins) = 20mm off your 720mm sheet. or as a 2nd example for a Perfecting Press 10mm...

As I understand it, later versions (including CS6) of Illustrator allow you to place the stroke inside or outside the vector (Align Stroke) as well as the default central to the vector, when you save Illy as PDF the mechanism isn't there so it converts to filled paths, the Illy half of the PDF...

wondering if by "flattened" they are seeing colour shifts due to converting/not-converting spot colour to cmyk rather than actually anything to do with transparency flattening. possible solution for matching results would be to print the Oris Postscript to file and refine the .ps in Prinergy.

I rely a lot on customers making changes and producing pdfs the same way they did the first time, e.g. colour settings and geometry and offsets, I am replacing the pdfs in Prinergy or switching in Acrobat. If i'm making changes I'm using Pitstop and not changing anything I shouldn't. The danger...

had a play 1. getting bleed to come out in a pdf (Export) is also an extra step. 2. switching on page information (slug) when Exporting a pdf you end up with a bigger gap at the top of the pdf than the bottom, so the Trim box is off centre to the media box. 3. placed a spot colour pdf and...

you want your standard 6mm gutter between pages, normally this is 3mm of bleed from from both pages. Your finisher has requested that area to be be white so change the bleed on the LH and RH pages to 0mm in Preps as described by Joe. You do not normally compensate for opening the book and...

:oActually I don't think I'm half right, I'm completely wrong, I have mis-read or mis interpreted the meaning of the words, though I think that the words could be clearer, I shouldn't have used my poor attempt at humour in my post, I'd just like to apologise to Dov, and anyone on the forum if I...
