    Automating prepress workflow

    Esko’s Automation Engine (AE) can monitor emails for files, pick up the files and create a Job folder (with a predetermined sub-folder structure), and move the files to it. AE has PitStop built into it so it’s possible much of the PDF file manipulation you are doing may be done with it. There...

    We don't preflight check

    As a FYI - Esko Automation Engine has PitStop built into it - (Enfocus is part of Esko) - so it’s possible to do PitStop Preflight and PitStop Actions as part of an automatic workflow to check for and, if asked to, correct common errors in PDF files. As in PitStop server or standalone versions...

    two seperations one plate

    I’ve seen a situation like this before. A prepress shop wanted two separations on one plate because they then cut the plate in half to save plate costs. What they ended up doing was to rip the separations then ‘wrap’ the TIFF files (embed them) in PDFs that could be stepped 1 up 2 across and...

    9/11 Remembered

    “A plane just hit the World Trade Center”, a colleague in the office in Atlanta said to us all sitting in the room. (I had returned from Print ’01 early the night before).

    Macs cannot connect to Prinergy EVO Server after power outage

    Cool. You may want to consider a battery backup for your server, then in the next power outage you will be able to shut down the server properly if need be. Most battery backups these days should be able to ride out a 10 minute storm as well.

    Macs cannot connect to Prinergy EVO Server after power outage

    Does your Prinergy server have a static IP address? It should, if not make it so. First thing I would do is open Network Utility on the Mac, go to Ping, and enter the Prinergy's IP and ping. If it returns ok but you still can't connect editing the Mac's hosts file may help. There are lots of...

    Problem with Post Script Files

    If your Harlequin Rip is "up to date" then it will accept PDF files. I would suggest you contact your vendor or Harlequin support. Have you tried sending PDF lately?

    PDF Editors

    Try this. Open the PDF in Acrobat. Go to the Document menu, Crop Pages. There is (should be) an option to Change Page Size using either pre-sets (Letter etc..) or Custom. Worth a shot? PS - I was using Acrobat 9. In Acrobat 10/11 it's in Tools, Print Production, Set Page Boxes. You can only...
