Re: Photoshop Clipping path trouble-help! > I have been doing clipping paths in Photoshop, like I normally would How is how you normally would? I am not sure about the path not working past .200, but I know a path won't show up in InDesign if it was not made a clipping path in Photoshop. I...

Re: PDF Engine Have them turn on overprint preview in InDesign. If the pics disappear, then more than likely the nonprinting box is checked in the attributes panel. Dan R.

Re: PDF Engine This is probably too simple, but did you look in the Acrobat folder inside the applications folder?

Re: Processing Photos You can just pull up your curves. You can open curves, click right in the center. In the curves dialog box, there is a box for input and output (they won't appear until you click on the curve). When you click in the middle, your input should say 50. In the output box add...

Re: Illustrator 10 pallets Did you try running the [CS3Clean Script|http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cs3clean.html] before you reinstall?

Re: Placing PDF Files into InDesign Yeah, but does the resulting PDF contain a PDF within it or is the information it needs extracted (graphics, position, fonts, etc...) and then rewritten into the new PDF? Not that this has anything to do with the price of apples in China, but it is an...

Re: Processing Photos > Personally, I hope Adobe will do away this option soon. Well, I use it for at least one thing. When I have a color ad that contains 4-color black element that should be solid, I go to convert to profile-custom cmyk and change the black generation to maximum. This fixes...

Re: PDF or EPS from Quark7 I think both methods make a PDF the exact same way. Both are creating a postcript to be made into a PDF, but with the print method I can select the Adobe PDF driver and then select my distiller settings under PDF settings. That way the postscript code is intercepted...

Re: Processing Photos Yeah, I would like to know how it works for you. It has helps us a lot. I don't have any experience with Fotostation, but maybe someone else here does and can offer you some advice. I really like the integration of all the Adobe apps, so there would have to be a very good...

Re: Processing Photos > the rip will have to tag it with another source profile if it's configured to do profile conversions which could make the end result look even less predictive. Is that common? Why would the RIP be set up to assume the source profile is something completely different...

Re: Processing Photos Does your printer have a custom icc profile? If not, I would suggest using the [SNAP|http://www.color.org/registry/index.xalter] profile. I handle a lot of photo processing at a newspaper and had a similar problem. Someone here suggested SNAP and I could not be happier...

Re: PDF or EPS from Quark7 I know this is from a few months ago, but I have a question. Why wouldn't you just print from Quark using the Adobe pdf driver and your distiller job options? Then you wouldn't have to mess with watched folders or make sure distiller is running. Are there any reasons...

Re: maintaining meta data in eps files Are all of your computers running the same software versions and operating systems? Are you finding images (processed on other computers) that do not have the metadata you want or have you watched this happen on your computer? Have you opened a jpeg with...

Re: Ready to get OUT of the business ... It seems to me that the problem is with the salesperson. They should have provided the client with a spec sheet. If the client did not understand, then they could call pre-press. Obviously if the client ignores your warnings, they are going to get...

Re: color settings edit in photoshop Do you know of any other icc profiles available that are for newsprint? SNAP is good, but the Simulate Black Ink is not exactly right. The shadows look gray and they should look black. Thank you for all your help, Dan R.

Re: color settings edit in photoshop > {quote:title=meddington wrote:}{quote} >The technically correct way to softproof would be to go to View/Proof Set Up/ Custom and select "Simulate Black Ink" with your SNAP profile, which simulates a relative colorimetric rendering without BPC for the...

Re: color settings edit in photoshop > I think the general rule for black point compensation would be if your converting from a low L* to a higher L* (Adobe RGB to SNAP), you'll want BPC on to preserve shadow detail. So does BPC improve shadow detail in my soft proof or the final print? If...

Re: color settings edit in photoshop > {quote:title=disbellj wrote:}{quote} > I leave Black Point Compnesation on (it's on by default). Someone may be able to tell us why you would want it off. I turn it off because it just seems to be closer to reality than when it is on. When black point...

I was just wondering what everyone here thought about the best time to convert to cmyk in photoshop. Do you guys, when working with an original RGB image, correct for color and tone first (using view proof colors) then convert or convert and then correct for color and tone? Also, do you prefer...

Re: color settings edit in photoshop Thank you. This issue has been bothering me for months and you just answered my main question with one link. I tried out that profile and it matches much closer. You just made one small community newspaper look better. So, I am guessing that loading SNAP icc...
