    Illustrator issue

    Hey Ben, Thanks. That looks like the deal, exactly. I don't know why anyone would hold that key when drawing a shape unless they knew what it did. I will see if she knows why she did. Thanks much, Mike

    Illustrator issue

    A friend sent me this file from Illustrator. She says ANYTIME she uses any drawing tool the thing draws these repeating diminishing shapes. It is odd the repeating shapes are not uniform. Has anyone seen this and know what the issue is? (She is on CS6 - "Cloud" version) MSD

    ftp

    I finally repaired it yesterday. Even though I turned of our other AFTP server software I neglected to go in and turn disable the services. The old software was taking the upper hand and Filezilla could not connect. Thanks all, MSD

    ftp

    Do you folks host your own FTP site on an in-house server? What application do you use? Do you have a link on your company web site to hit the ftp server? I am trying Filezilla and having seemingly unsurmountable trouble trying to hit it from anywhere. I tried MassTransit. The express worked OK...

    InDesign or Illustrator

    ----- If you do all the art in Illustrator all the Black will knock out - unless you are savvy enough to make it not do that. If you do the art in InDesign all the Black will overprint - which is what your prepress will prefer - unless you set your preferences NOT to overprint which is what...

    HP Indigo 7600 vs iGen 4 110...

    Well, one thing ... the iGEN 3 was very crappy. The 4 is great. With the new matte toners. The 150 is - well the verdict is still out. It prints great but we call service a bit much. Not anywhere close to the 3 but we rarely called in for the 4. MSD

    Is Prinect really worth it?

    The Heidi workflow has many parts - which operations do you want Prinect to do? I can't imagine what parts you are looking at for 30K. MSD

    Difference between ink and paint

    With paints and toners the light bounces off of the paint or toner to the viewers eye With Litho Inks the light passes through the inks and bounces off of the paper back to the viewers eye. Much like a Photo Filter MSD MSD

    MACs - PCs - ExtremeZ - SMB

    I am planning a move from a MAC mini Fusion server back to a KickButt PC server I have sitting around. I, know in the past, (from Rampage days) the hot setup was to run ExtremeZ-IP on the server to run AFP and mostly to resolve font transfer problems. - Now -- if SMB is the network connection...

    Ripped PDF to Prinect workflow

    I believe the Printer needs to spend the money for the TIF license to take 1bit or 8bit TIFFs. - I just send the Signa imposed PDFs and let the printer be responsible for the screening. You could dictate your screen angles and dot gain to them. MSD

    Color management issue?

    Probably the background was created in CMYK and the box behind the logo is RGB.

    Number Up Calculating App

    I did not see if your app handles multiple ups of various items rather than how many up of one item. We are always trying to fit many small, differing sized items on one sheet. MSD

    PDFs from client

    In the "Page Display" preference of Acrobat there is a checkbox for "Use Local Fonts". Turn that off and Acrobat forces itself to use the embedded fonts only. If something is not embedded - you may then get the warning that Acrobat cannot extract that font. If you see what font is not embedded...

    View Separations without Adobe Professional

    We use seps preview on nearly every job we process. As a last step we turn off the Black and scan through the job to be assured there is no rogue "Built" Black in the job. We, quite often get jobs with RGB Blacks or Profile mis-matched Blacks that must be changed to 100% Black for printing. MSD
