    M1 Mac with Monterey

    I have one already (it has Big Sur on it though) and so far, Adobe-wise, things seem to be running well (we only use InDesign, Illustrator, Photoshop, and Acrobat). We typically don't design anything. We just take our customer's files and prep them for printing. Best regards, pd

    M1 Mac with Monterey

    I probably could. The reason I would like to purchase is because the (Intel-based) iMac's I have now are all 7 years old. pd

    M1 Mac with Monterey

    Hi Chris, I have heard that Apple has continued to improve their System Integrity Protection feature which as you said really locks things down. While I don't necessarily fault them for doing so, I wonder if this will complicate the process of cloning one Mac to another. In the past, I've...

    Native Document Preflight

    Ah ok. Unfortunately, I don't know of any preflight (or other) software that can warn if an image "looks" low-res even when the document resolution is 300. I've had to explain to my customers many times that increasing the resolution of a low-res photo will not improve the look of it.

    FlightCheck is pretty much the defacto standard for what you're looking to do. Out of curiosity, why not use FlightCheck? pd

    Indesign Question?

    Hi BRW, Knowing more about your setup would be helpful. Here are some questions: 1. It sounds like you have multiple Mac's where you are. Are the specs (model year, model) of the other Mac's NOT having this problem the same as yours? 2. Do the other Mac's have the same macOS version as yours...

    Adobe Performance...

    @chriscozi, what's your experience with exporting a PDF of files created in Affinity? Correct me if I'm wrong but I believe Affinity uses GhostScript for making a PDF? I don't have much experience with GS. How well does Affinity export PDF/X-1a (especially where spot colors are present) and...
