I can connect my iSis to MeasureTool and CGS Oris rip with out problems. However, when I try to connect to ColorPort, it will not connect. I am using a MacBook Pro, Core i5, running 10.6.5. Thanks to all that respond. -Bill-

Greetings, If Curve can read your file, I am guessing the ColorThink can read it too. Do you have ColorThink? If so, create a new worksheet in ColorThink and drop your ColorPort file into the Color tab. With a text file, ColorThink will parse the data and list the cmyk and equivalent Lab...

I was using ToolCrib on a MacBook Pro running Tiger to interface with my 528 spectro/densitometer. I had the data dump into an Excel file that calcuated chroma, hue and dE to ISO 12647-2. My Pro has broken and I have a new one on order. I was going to set up the same system, two partitions, one...

Images For Press Target Greetings, Sorry for a delayed response, I found the images I was seeking. I have attached a screen shot of the press target, images and layout I use for our 17" flexo presses. For our narrower web presses, I have created a custom target consisting of 992 patches and a...

Greetings, I made a .ps file of the InDesign file with your .eps placed and then a .ps file of an InDesign file with my .eps file (with changed color names) placed. I can distill the .ps file that has my .eps file using Distiller (v9.3.2), but I error out when trying to distill the .ps file...

Greetings, After my last post, I read your log, should have done that first, sorry. Your problem is not in placing the files, but exporting them as PDF files. I noticed that the custom colors you created in Illustrator include k=10 1 and K=24 1. I made a duplicate of your .eps files and...

Greetings, Unfortunately, I could not duplicate your problem. I was able to place both of your .eps files into InDesign without incident. Additionally, I do not have Quark, so could not test that. I am involved in flexographic printing and I do not work a lot in either program since neither...

Greetings, We are in the process of updating our Brisque front end to Tiff Assembler Plus (TAP). It is reported that viewing trapped and imposed files using (TAP) is much faster that using Copydot. Any comments / real world experiences on the difference between the TAP and Copydot in terms...

Greetings Michael, While we are a flexo printer, the location that is considering the WT7900 install is really more interested in expressing as many of the pantone colors (as well as accurate process images) over being able to print white on clear. Any testing been done to see if the removal...

Luc, when you say "not very good for proofing only" are you referring to process images on paper? Have you had a chance to compare a proof from the WT7900 using one of your profiles against your present solution using the same profile? I am in the process of doing that with my CGS...

Greetings, Anyone out there using the new WT7900 that will print white? If so: 1. Can it print on proofing paper as well as other Epson printer such as the 4880? I have been told is was optimized to print on clear and metallic media and does not print color managed proofs on paper as well as...

Greetings, I would like to change my username, as it is the same as my present email address, which in a few days will no longer be my email address. I have searched through the various options in the User CP section but can find no option to allow me to change my username. Additionally, I...

Greetings, Obviously I am looking for low numbers in the Average/Sigma/Maximum areas when comparing measurements. But above what numbers should I start to worry that my measurements are too far apart? -Bill-

Greetings, I have tried, with limited success, to use Lab values in Photoshop to determine a matching set of CMYK values for my press. The press is an Indigo on which I have printed a target and made a few profiles with different attributes. I also made a proofing queue for the press on our...

Greetings, I am looking for a couple of images to add to my press target. One image is of, I think, 3 women with colorful clothing and holding instruments. The other is a silver tray with silver objects on it. If anyone can direct me to a site I can downloads these, or any other images that...

Invalid .svg file Invalid .svg file I found the following on the web - hopefully it will be of some help. Flickr: Discussing How do I validate an SVG? in Church Marketing Lab (beta) At this url find and read comments by cami618 and A.B. Dada. At some point A.B. references a validator can be...

Greetings Cory, Thanks for the link, and sorry I did not research this on PrintPlanet before posting my question. Somewhat consoling to know I am not the only one with this challenge. Appears there is no answer, only vigilance in removing the pesky empty downloads. I can handle this problem...

Greetings, This seems to be a relatively new event for me when visiting PrintPlanet. I am on a Mac using Safari 4.0.3, OS10.4.11 and when I reach the PrintPlanet page, a file and a folder named NewDownloads-X-X appears in two places on my computer. The X-X are numbers, and when I navigate to...

trapX-i trapX-i Humm, I cannot seem to get this plug in to work. An example: A yellow(PMS 012) box that lays over a red box (PMS Warm Red). I can use the Trap to All Tool and I get the appropriate trap between the yellow and red. Interesting, though the trap is not set to overprint it still...

Dare I ask, are you on a PC or a MAC. I am on a MAC running Excel X for Mac and I have heard there are some differences - maybe this is one of them. -Bill-
