I like the idea of a new vision and even if it is not the way to go… may be the way to provoke others to think out of the box? He raises several important points.

It should be possible, still not quite clear what you want to do… from what to what. If you need to do in several stages there is a great plug called multi-find/change (Automatication | Multi-Find/Change (CS4/CS5.x/CS6)) Look into forming a query (part 1 = what is infront of keyword) (part 2...

Looks like the alpha channel is down sampled differently than the image. Note that photoshop to PDF does not support blending modes, which can cause problems since what is left is the alpha channel to handle all transparency. This kind of issues could happen with OPI images, which is where I...

I missed the Adobe CS6 launch tour since I was traveling to Drupa the same day… was expecting to see something from Adobe… if nowhere else at least via other companies, but I didn't see anything? How do we interpret this?

Just back from Drupa… interersting to see (or not see) anything about CreativeCloud or CS… didn't even see an Adobe add anywhere… it seems the sector is no longer of interest? …or are they under the impression that they are not needing to defend/maintain their position?

I'm glad the time when customers faxed diskettes so that we could get the files is over ;)

Download the trial and test it ;) http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=master_collection

For print and preflighting there is still ways to go… now if we talk about the advantage to a publisher it's a different… we have to ask ourselves what is it we are good at, and what is the purpose of what we do. Is print the product… or is communication the abstract product and print just...

Unfortunately there is still a way to go for there to be total consistency between the applications in the Suite. There are some typographic issues that still need to be solved in Illustrator for it to catch up (in CS6 illustrator has been redone at a deep level making it possible to persue a...

Was the PDF x-flavoured?

As Drupa is closing in anyone else? I'll be there 11 and 12th I think.

Note this is one of the BIGGEST CHANGES in CS6. Adobe is moving to the Pantone + libraries and colours will be in LAB and based on the Pantone+ libraries. There are CMYK breakdowns in books, but then the customer should use the PANTONE BRIDGE+ libraries. Just warning you so you can get polish up...

If you learn CS5 it it will not be a problem with CS5, all the energy you put into 5 will be well invested.

You can place an indesign file in another Indesign file, so I think it should work to place a CS4 page in a CS5 page.

The cloud licensing letts you download Mac or PC, and many applications you can switch language if you like… why not expand your print vocabulary in French or German ;)

This article may help understand the problems that have caused Illustrator to lag behind. Real World Illustrator: Illustrator CS6 is 64bit: What does it mean? also if you are doing any packaging work even if ESKO has great tools they are not in the price range that all can live with… but you...

I agree that there are more things that can be done in Illustrator, and as you say the big thing with AI CS6 is the 64-bit move. (The new pattern creation method is awesome, but does not affect all clients, also the linear gradients is great, but I'm not sure they affect daily work… and with...

Some day we will all communicate colour in Lab ;)

Well kids is a bit condescending they're all young adults ;)

Was the planning reasonable. Demanding plates to be ready is one thing, but also there needs to be a clause about "provided that the material is trouble free and approved n-days/hours before the plates need to be ready". If plates are not ready when the press is to run it is just as much (if...
