    Your thoughts on the new iMac 2.8GHz Quad-Core Intel Core i7 - PrePress Work?

    For all the reasons posted here, is why Apple needs a Mid tower Mac. The Mac pros are great but way more pricey and to much expansion then needed. But as usual Apple knows best.....

    The email flip to prepress....? ugh!

Basically production/planing/CSR forwards a email from the customer to prepress and excepts us to interpret the info and do the work. Most of the time it is a change to a file, and most of the...

    Image Compression

    We don't compress anything. Just another variable to worry about, and in print there is enough already. If I had to choose then it would be zip for the lossless. Good luck

    Anyone transitioned from prepress to web design

    I'm trying to get out as well. Print is a shrinking industry where as internet is a growing one. So I've been taking a web fundamental course. The basic HTML is easy. As for how it relates to prepress. Well you will have the edge in manipulating photoshop images and creating CSS style sheets...

    Windows 2000 Server backup solution

    There are a bunch of great suggestions already. Another easy solution would be adding another internal drive. Partition/install win 2000 on the new drive and copy over all your data. Run symantic ghost and save the image file to dvd. You can use the image to restore your OS whenever it dies or...

    Quark 6.x on Intel Macs

    Quark 6.5.x with 10.4 on intel Mac works perfect. If you have 10.5.x it doesn't work and is a known issue. The step and repeat function is one of the symptoms of it not working correctly. Quark 7 is intel native and with the latest patches you will have no trouble opening Quark 6 documents...

    .zip files corrupt fonts?

    What I have noticed is if clients create zip files with stuffit zip, it has problems. Stuffit had some very bad versions and people have not upgraded to the latest version which is much better. But you should mention to your customers is to use the built in zip function (right click...

    FTP Fear

    We use rumpus as well. Works great. I think you will have to trust your customers some more and not worry about it. You don't know what is happening at their end. Could be a junior who is fumbling the info. Good luck

    Cockpit with Snow Leopard

    You must live in the future. 10.7 is not out yet. I'm sure you meant 10.6 =) Apple released 10.6.1 a couple weeks after the initial release. It was the same bug they had in 10.5 with smb shares. You would think they got it right already. I would wait until about the third patch, it seems to be...
