Thank you for posting. This is very helpful (and I just learned some more about Canva!). pd

Hi everyone, Has anyone had any issues with PDF files created by Canva? I've been asked by my sales team on if they should encourage to or discourage their customers from using Canva. I've had limited experience with Canva and my gut feeling is to discourage. Your thoughts? Best regards and...

I don't believe there is a way to directly send data from your press calibration software into Apogee Prepress. You would have to manually import the .mime file each time (assuming the data within the .mime file is correctly formatted for Apogee to be able to read it). In terms of the location...

Hi Glenn, Are you working with REALLY high-res content? If so, that...could...slow you down when using the Marquee tool. If not........ I've noticed that with the latest version of Acrobat, when I have an object selected with Pitstop, there is a mild screen flicker. I haven't seen the SBOD...

I personally have two SpinJet's and love them. Unfortunately, the company that made them is no longer in business. pd

Technically, wide format Epson printers are not two-sided proofers as there is no duplexer accessory available for them (that I know of), however, they ARE capable of printing on pre-cut sheets vs a roll of paper. There is a guide on the Epson that shows how to align a sheet of paper. Your...

I once had a customer that 4 times a year would have us print a 4-pager (1500 quantity) but they would wait until the last possible minute to release art to us because of all the text changes they loved to make (and then make more after we proofed it!). So, about 11pm on a SATURDAY NIGHT, they...

I use Agfa's Apogee Prepress workflow. The nice thing about Apogee is that imposition is built in. Apogee Impose is a brilliant feature and offers A LOT of functionality. Best regards, pd

Mine says, "This proof is submitted to you for your protection against inadvertent errors. Color and/or typesetting should be checked carefully. Your signature will release us from any liability of typographic or any other proof errors." Best regards, pd

Oh, one more idea before uninstalling/reinstalling. Try creating a test macOS user account, login to that account, FlightCheck a PDF and see if Acrobat opens.

Although it's a pain, I wonder if a complete uninstall/reinstall of Acrobat might do the trick. After uninstalling, run the AcroCleaner tool from Adobe which removes all the files/folders that the Acrobat Uninstaller does not and reboot. The AcroCleaner tool can be found here: AcroCleaner —...

Do you get the error if the PDF you are FlightCheck'ing isn't on the desktop but maybe in a folder somewhere?

One other thing to try would be to temporarily disable any Anti-Malware software you might have installed. It could be interfering with this.

I doubt this will work but it's worth a try: In Acrobat, go to Preferences > Security (Enhanced). If enabled, try disabling Enhanced Security, close Acrobat, and see if Acrobat will open the PDF through FlightCheck now. Best regards, pd

Hi NW3, I don't have iCut or anything Esko but there might be a solution that could work outside of iCut/Esko. If you have a Mac, you can run the following AppleScript (if you don't have a Mac, I'm sure a JavaScript could be written) on your PDF which will duplicate each page in the PDF : tell...

Bossman should be fired.

I have experienced this on the Mac version of Acrobat (with Pitstop but no FusionPro) when the PDF contains images with ridiculously high resolution or when there is A LOT (ie thousands of paths) of vector content. Reducing the resolution of said images usually does the trick. Rasterizing said...

The Montax interface can certainly be confusing. As for their variable feature, it basically works like this: 1. Open an imposition and select your data source. 2. Add a text box to the imposition. 3. Select a field from the data source. 4. Configure font properties of the text frame. 5...

Choose Print from the File menu. There should be a dropdown menu as shown below and one of the options in the menu is 'Save as Postscript'. Hope this helps! Best regards, pd

Are you looking to RENDER 1bit TIFF images? If so, I'm pretty sure you would need the 'OpenConnect' license. Of course, I could be wrong. Unless Agfa has changed the name of it, I don't see it listed. Anyone from Agfa roaming these halls? Best regards, pd
