    We've tried Auraia also. You should remember - i've contacted you about it. And I have to tell you - it is better than staccato. It has been a very long testing period. And maybe we're just unlucky, or their new product (Belissima) was top priority, or British just don't like Russians - I don't...

    That is funny, because on our coldset presses we've succsesfully printed Staccato 36, but our customers didn't like it. But we did it successfully. I'll try to quote our customer's response: We: You know last month we've been printing all your books with Staccato. How do you like images quality...

    You know, with Colorflow we've done that too long time ago. We were pleased also. But then we've found out that we cannot maintain same good result with staccato day after day due to: Trouble with air temperature Poor ink Poor blankets Poor rollers, especially water rollers etc. The biggest...

    Staccato of what size? 10, 20, 25 micron? Did you measure final gamut?

    That's true, for sure. But. Some years ago we were into staccato implementation badly. Willing to print everything with it, market it to our customers. One of our main customers told us (after some orders printed with staccato) that "staccato is good, for sure, but we do not want that". Other...

    Show me customers willing to pay for quality, understanding, difference and "value". It is open market - give you customers what they want. Most of customers do not want DMAX, expanded gamut etc. Because their customers do not want that either.

    Hissing or whisper it depends on lots of things. Not to mention the age. The older you are - the lesser frequency range you hear. So it depends. Jokes aside

    AKIYAMA J-Print - Opinions

    Hard to find good service for this press. Our used jp44 did not print on coated stock. Even after gripper replacement and 5 years of trials. Akiyama has it's own format and app for ink profiles. So you will need to convert any standard profiles for it. And the app is old and do not work on every...

    Striped halftone printing

    Line screen for small type? Seriously? Large blocks of 50% K is good point, if they aren't rotated.

    Striped halftone printing

    Probably he wasn't. The biggest problem of today's printing industry is that people who work there actually think that pushing the "print" button is all that they need. And, of course, blaming customer for their own dilettantism.

    Striped halftone printing

    But there is no custom halftone info in the pdf itself — so line is obviously a printer's choice. Line "dot shape" is very bad idea for this kind of work.

    Striped halftone printing

    There is nothing wrong with your pdf. But i've got a question — why did your printer choose line halftone pattern instead of e.g. circle dot?

    Nope. We're not happy. I just need to say it loud - HUBER SUCKS!

    Linerize or not to Linerize plates... that is the question

    My 5 cents — if you have 2 or more CTPs with process plates and you want the output to be exactly the same then you should go 2 curves way. If you have one CTP i would suggest 1 curve way if you take good care of your plate processor. In our printshop for example we have 2 magnus vlf with...

    Preps for perfect bound book, no bleed on the inside

    For standard layout odd pages will always have spine on the left, even on the right. When you set your bleed values at the front they automatically applies to the back

    Preps for perfect bound book, no bleed on the inside

    That's not true. You can manually set any bleed for page in preps 5.3 and any preps. And preps do not use bleed box - only trimbox.

    Fascile sewing

    Thanks, Gordo! That's what we've decided to do. Btw i've found that one printshop in europe describe their multiplex sa with "1000 facicles per hour", though neither our multiplex manual nor meccanotecnica catalog use this term
