    PDF Overprint

    Lukas, I take it these are the settings from the native application. What about if you have a PDF already say from a prepress workflow? Do you apply similar settings within Acrobat? I've found our workflow does not always produce a small enough PDF for email (never mind about the overprint) and...

    Fonts, Servers and our new iMac

    Does the older Mac run 10.5 and your new iMac run 10.6? If so I am guessing your are storing your files on a SMB type server? Then the way 10.6 writes or see's files on this type of server is different then 10.5. p

    New Release CS 5.5

    The subscription method might be a good thing after all. Like us whom only a few clients have CS5. So fewer will have CS5.5. The pay as you go could work. p

    New Release CS 5.5

    I never found the background processing that relevant. I rather know my PDF is done, close my file and move onto the next one. Instead I must wait for the warning box to close, then close my file. I have not found a way to turn off the background procesing. p

    Cockpit and Lion

    Apple doesn't write or patch java. They just preferred to have java updated using the software update tool. The situation may be better for end users to be able to patch/upgrade java when it is actually released instead of waiting for Apple to allow it to be patch. Which is the real reason they...

    Seriously? Don't you think you are jumping the gun there? Plus you only can have the preview addition of Lion if you are a software developer.. p

    Max Os big print problem

    Try printing without the fonts loaded. I assume you are printing directly from one application to the device. Do all applications fail to print on only this one? Also try to print to a file (PDF) with the same application. p

    MAC networking...unheard of issue??

    Permissions on the Mac are really screwed up, its a PITA.. Windows does a much better job at this stuff. I'm not sure if I followed you. Are you on your workstation Mac creating the folder on the local drive (say the desktop) then copying to the server? If so this could be the problem. But if...

    MAC networking...unheard of issue??

    Hi So it sounds like you are using the build in File Sharing from the sharing panel. For a basic setup like this it can work. But it depends how you are connecting to this share folder from your other Macs. I suggest you create the same accounts you log into your Mac workstations, on the Mac...

    New Release CS 5.5

    FYI in case you have not heard. Website design software | Creative Suite 5.5 family I'm not feeling it. We are just settling in with CS5, seems are customers are as well. If we can open CS 5.5 files in version 5, I will completely pass on this version. But I doubt it will be possible. p

    MAC networking...unheard of issue??

    Mac OS Server is the software. As mentioned check your group/user account permission settings. Try setting it to full control instead of read/write. You might have to proprigate the permissions on the share. Also there is a default workgroup account automatically setup when you create a share...

    new versions

    Now that you know/have the new version are any of these functions/features beneficial to you? The one feature we use is the ability to assign a page to multiple imposition positions. But most times we forget the feature exists. The assignment of colour bar colours is a little smarter. But the...

    Mac OS X 10.6.7 ok? how about fonts?

    The more I am finding about this issue the more challenging it is. You can be as diligent as you want by clearing caches, not using certain fonts etc.. but the problem seems to manifest itself in other ways. Thanks Apple I'll wait for you next latest and greatest patch... p
