    Yosemite Fonts

    I put this into the Adobe thread as Adobe knows the most about fonts. I have followed the Extensis font guidelines for years now. I just installed Yosemite on a test machine. The machine was working perfectly - until I took fonts out of the system that I would normally take out. I had to wipe...

    Acrobat DC

    Leonard The above states exactly what I do not like about the window. I rarely use previous files. I have no use for the cloud.

    Permanent Crop Pitstop and or Acrobat

    I have read many threads on this. I have tried everything. 1. PDF that is 8.5 x 14 2. Want to crop to bottom 3.5 inches only first 3. Went into protection and deleted out extra crop stuff (Or, the Germans would have me believe) 4. Did a Save as as Leonard stated in the past 5. Now, I need to...

    Acrobat DC

    10.9.5 on a 1 year old Mac Pro (round not cheese grater) with 32 gig of ram and ssd. I think a lot of it is my complete inpatient with the new window being visible at all times.

    Acrobat DC

    Anyone know of a way that I can get back to the Acrobat I loved a week ago? I stupidly updated to DC. NOT a fan whatsoever. Seems slow and buggy - beyond the fact that Adobe somehow thinks I want the "Windows" look and feel with that stupid white page open all the time. I am on the cloud and...

    31 years in offset...

    We now print 16 million feet per month on our two CiPress digital web presses. Probably 80 percent of that is variable names. Of that 80 percent, we are 10 percent variable pictures based upon state / sex, etc. I have been in the business for 25 years this August. The way to survive is to...

    Uncoated paper proof

    Way back in 2005, we used to get sheets from our supplier. They were 40 x 30. We could put them in, print the first side, then manually flip and print the second. They did a fantastic job of simulating 60 pound white offset. Unfortunately, I have slept since 2005 and cannot for the life of me...

    Trueflow 7 error 10504 trying to create job

    Have you tried renaming the file to test? We had one that drove us nuts. We found it was a word we should not have been using - like page or something.

    Trueflow vs Esko Automation Engine

    We have a facility 1,000 miles from us. Their RIP is old and they will be replacing soon. We have Screen Trueflow and have had it for 10 years. 250,000 plates and probably 60,000 rips - of which 90 percent have been APPE since we received that RIP in 2007 or so. It is a workhorse, but no bells...

    PDF "resizer"

    Is anyone aware of a product that can do the following for me: I have a 20 x 14 PDF I want to end up with a 17 x 11 I do not want to crop. I am fully aware of how to crop in Pitstop and or Acrobat Professional. I simply want an XX reduction of my PDF Say, from 100 x 100 percent to 80 x 80...

    Unusual font substitution

    Unfortunately, my customers use Word all the time. Here is the issue. I am quite positive this started with CC. We have never had this problem with previous versions of Indesign. My question is this - WHO can we bring this up to? How do we get this before Adobe for them to look into?

    Unusual font substitution

    We have been doing a LOT of testing on this. So far, our hypothesis is this - there is corruption occurring in imported text form Microsoft Word. In every single case, we have tracked down to find that text got imported from Word at some point. Sometimes, there is a style sheet. Sometimes not...

    Indesign Creative Cloud Font issues

    We really think we have narrowed this down to imported text and Microsoft Word style sheets. They seem to be getting corrupted. I have no idea who to contact at Adobe about this?? Any ideas?

    Indesign Creative Cloud Font issues

    Dov, there is a separate thread on this as well in Prepress and workflow. I am on the latest Extensis and CC. This happened on both version 4 and now even version 5 of Universal Type Server. It happens so infrequently that I have no way of knowing if the fonts being stored locally would fix...

    Unusual font substitution

    michaeljahn - I am going to PM you a copy of a bad pdf from us. I am not posting as it is from a customer - and I don't have permission to do that. I could go into Pitstop and remove some of the parts that show what customer - but that would mess with the integrity of the file you are getting...

    Unusual font substitution

    I did not see this one in time. I just posted a very similar issue in the Adobe thread. We are seeing this more and more often. I believe it only started in CC INDD, but I could be wrong. Yes it is a ligature issue. Person X on Mac XX will have the issue. Quit out of INDD, or sometimes do a...

    Indesign Creative Cloud Font issues

    Before somebody gets mad at me for the name - I am just trying to clarify what version is having the problems. My team pays our dues to CC and I am up to date on all adobe products through the cloud... With that said - Seems that our ligatures are substituting with hieroglyphics (or something...
