And there's beer in many of the booths! IMHO everyone in the print business should attend at least one drupa in their life.

Honestly, the way I would approach this job is to use white kraft paper and print brown to give the appearance of brown kraft. Knock out the areas where you want your two spot colors to print - that way they go down on a white surface. That makes it a 3 color job with possibly a 4th color to...

1. Possibly. But you can't assume that. 2. Yes, offset. The ink drawdown is done on a hand cranked mini offset press called a "Little Joe". It is a dry offset press (no fountain solution). It is typically used by offset printers and/or ink suppliers to show what an ink color mix or varnish...

Emulsification is normal and the ink is formulated to accept a molecule thin film of fountain solution. Over-emulsification is not normal. Fountain solution/water is a solvent. Large areas of ink (solids) can somewhat resist the solvent effect while small areas of ink are less able. The effect...

Are you assuming or do you know that your customers use Acrobat Reader?

I assume there's a way for the client to sign and date the proof? Also, my PDF viewer doesn't give me the option of turning overprints on.
