Preps 6 does have built in collation marks, but they don't seem to work on forms that have 2 different 12up sigs. I thought it was a bounding box issue also, so we resaved images in Illustrator CS3 as EPS and PDF (thinking that CS3 was the version of choice for older Preps programs). The...

Screencaptures to show what is happening. Collation marks 1.pdf shows the mark placed in Preps - it's an Illustrator mark that has been used to create a SmartMark. Collation marks 2.pdf shows how the signature looks after processing through Prinergy. Collation marks 3.pdf shows a closer view of...

Let me try this again. We now have collating marks that work whether it's a vertical spine or a horizontal spine. But if we have two 12-pagers on each sig, the horizontal collating marks don't even appear in Preps. It acts like it is adding them, and under Edit I can remove them, but there is no...

I've created a new collating mark for a Perfect Bound layout. When I place it on the layout, Preps says it's there by turning the mark blue, but I can't find it. I've tried turning off everything but marks and it's still no where to be found. Even reduced to see the pasteboard area. Nothing.

Seems we had a corrupted ICC profile. All is well . . . until . . .

Our workspace is GRACoL2006. PDF with images come out of InDesign with no Profile, Refine in Prinergy with No Profile, Plate with a plate curve that is G7 certified. Question is, since we don't assign or convert to a profile throughout the workflow, the original image information is passed...

We just upgrade to Acrobat XI. They've included an Advanced Search but I'm not seeing the search all open documents. Is it hiding somewhere?

We upgraded our macs and Adobe software yesterday. The 2 macs that were retaining GRACoL2006 and the simulation profile in Acrobat's Output Preview are still retaining the profile, no matter what the profile is on the PDF. (And we prefer it to act this way.) All other macs are functioning as...

GRACoL2006 isn't showing our Blacks correctly. One image is Black Illustrator lines. One is Photoshop Tif. Both have a Black only line. With our workspace at GRACoL2006 these lines are showing 4-color black. But the original files have Black only. Am I missing a setting somewhere? Thanks.

We have our workspace set in Bridge to GRACoL2006. Several images that are created with only Black strokes are showing as 4-color strokes in Acrobat Output Preview. But, when using the eye dropper they read as only Black. Why is it this way? If we want it to show our press conditions (G7...

I was able to find that our presses were calibrated to GRACoLl2006. We don't have ICC profiles of the presses. The presses have been checked and are within tolerance of what we printed for G7.

Is there a way to get the Output Preview to stay whatever the workspace is? Instead of changing to the profile attached to the PDF?

Let me ask an entirely different question, which may help clear up my thinking. :confused: We get PDFs from several sources, with many different profiles attached or sometimes no profile or Document RGB, etc. On some Macs GRACoL2006 (our working space) sticks in the Output Preview. This is what...

Reading the "G7 for Creatives and Print Buyers" from IDEAlliance, (my interpretation of what it's telling me) . . . Our sheetfed presses are set to print within the G7 specifications using our current plate curve. Using GRACoL2006 profile on scanners, monitors, and proofers will set the...

I'm not understanding how this would affect the Output Preview not retaining our workspace profile (GRACoL2006)?

Currently we are converting all RGBs in Photoshop, prior to Prinergy. Just got out of a color meeting and this is the thought process - Out of InDesign all Profiles are stripped out so we have "raw" files. Plater runs raw files with a plating curve to bring everything into G7 methodology. If...

What I really want to know is this a "normal" workflow - if there is such a thing. Previous workplaces had a profile being attached during Refine.

Our current setup is to fail on RGB. We then convert to CMYK in Photoshop and resend. To get an RGB to go through Prinergy it has to convert to a profile.

Our current workflow has exported PDFs from InDesign - Output - No Color Conversion and Do Not Include Profiles. (Our Workspace is GRACoL2006_Coated1v2.icc.) This PDF goes to Prinergy which has Color Convert turned off. How does Prinergy know how to process this file and what colorspace to...

In Acrobat Preferences / Color Management / settings are using GRACoL2006. PDFs we are opening have been exported from InDesign with GRACoL2006 Destination Profile attached. I have 2 Macs that are defaulting to Adobe 1998 RGB even with Preference set to GRACoL2006. The rest are honoring the...
