    Removing stubborn Form Objects

    Tim, I could only remove the large outer form element with an action list. The smaller form element, for whatever reason is an intrinsic part of the smaller objects and does not select and if manually selected and removed the actual printable objects go too! Strange… Stephen Marsh

    Exporting icc profile from Colorflow

    Not sure if this matters, but ColorFlow or ColorFlow Pro? It has been a while and I no longer have access… However click/select/highlight the frame of the primary or secondary colour output (the large round cornered box holding all of the icons) and then use the export menu, or press the CIE...

    Sending PDF Proofs

    So 99% of the time soft-proofing is not actually happening and is just “busy work”, right Danny? Agreed, the input PDF is refined (regenerated) – but not RIPed as that is a separate and different processing step and is why there are VPS and raster PDF output and many other options for the...

    X-Rite Isis 2 and CGS Oris Color Tunner Problem

    If you have installed the X-Rite software after installing ORIS Color Tuner, then reinstall OCT and see if it installs a different preferred X-Rite driver… I would not manually move/place drivers. Hope this helps, Stephen Marsh

    Send high resolution data directly to printer?

    I believe that this is so, when 1-bit proofing of high resolution separated plate files is used with KPS, one must use a 1440x1440 resolution media configuration (in KPS the media configuration controls most of the low level features of the printer). KPS: CGS ORIS Color Tuner Web...

    Send high resolution data directly to printer?

    Epson license an SDK to various RIP vendors. Some RIP vendors will use all or part of the SDK and may elect to use their own development in other areas. I know that Kodak Proofing Software can use various symmetrical and asymmetrical resolutions (360, 720, 1440x720, 1440x1440 etc) and CGS ORIS...

    16 Page Signature Work & Turn Using Print Smith Vision

    Didn’t EFI cover this when they were onsite training you? I’m just curious, as when I train new clients on the Accura MIS, there is a minimum of three full days of face to face onsite training and this would be day 1 stuff. Production methods such as work and turn are generally setup in the...

    Recommend me quoting software

    I don’t see “cost plus” as being incompatible with “market rate” or “market leading” or “what the market will bear” or any other pricing goal – the “plus” get’s you to the market or any other desired rate! Without knowing your true costs, how do you know if you should even try to compete against...

    Creating lab colour swatches in illustrator using csv text

    That is great, I’m glad that you are not hitting any conversion issues or running afoul of RIP/DFE and PDF spot colour limitations. P.S. Looking at i1Profiler, I believe that the minimum recommended swatch size for i1 handheld devices is 10mm wide / 9mm high (and a little less for the...

    Creating lab colour swatches in illustrator using csv text

    I just tried with the latest version of CGS ORIS Color Tuner // Web using the APPE engine. I created a PDF with 50 named spots. I then created a spot colour lookup defined as solid cyan. The first 30 spots in the test file were correctly colour managed to cyan. The last 20 spots were not...

    Creating lab colour swatches in illustrator using csv text

    Ah, that may be an issue… Is the DFE pickup up the Lab values from the spots and then converting them on the fly to the final device space using a spot colour lookup table of some sort? Is the DFE APPE based? At one point in time, the Adobe PDF Print Engine (APPE) licensed from Adobe for...

    Epson 9890 - Missing Nozzles

    What you describe seems normal to me! :] Epson recommend powering the printer off when not in use, which caps the heads and stops them from drying out. These machines “love to work” and seem to behave better with regular printing, even if it is just a small test strip or even regular nozzle...
