    It is Said

    I watched a tv show that explained that there isn't enough time for this to happen. On the basis that Time only started at the big bang and it will end at end of the universe. On the flip side assuming the monkeys have completed the text its only a few more random key presses to get a PDF/X -1a.:)

    Low Res PDFs to client

    I used to get this from sales all the time, along with the White text on overprint that shows on the customer's screen and doesn't print. Since adding the following text to the bottom of all emails 95% of these queries are gone. Please ensure PDFs are checked in Acrobat and the Overprint...

    How does Adobe figure out the multiply value?

    (100-87)*((100-40)/100)=(100-92.2) rounded to 92

    I like this, but I'm not showing anyone else at work this as they'll want their own version!

    Indesign CS 5.5 (bugg with clipping paths)

    Yes you are right, it depends on activating "Apply Photoshop Clipping Path" not just the Import Options. I still think its a bit hit and miss and can't be intentional behaviour, Each time I re-start InDesign CS5.5 the "Import Options" is de-selected, and I'm assuming Clipping Path is ON, I can't...

    Indesign CS 5.5 (bugg with clipping paths)

    I can get both behaviours with InDesign CS5.5 :confused: It depends on whether when you place an image the Show Import Options is checked or not. I think this is dependant on last time you used Place. On my install when its checked the File updates without the clipping path, when its unchecked...

    Indesign CS 5.5 (bugg with clipping paths)

    Was the customer supplied file InDesign CS5.5? If it was a previous version does the same thing happen when updating the Link? Is it possible the reason the Link required updating is that they added a clipping path?

    Scratches On Electra XD Plates

    We've been seeing scratches for a few months now with Elektra XD, not very often maybe 1 in 50 plates but they come in clumps. We think they appeared when they shifted production to Sofia, we never saw them from Leeds, we're almost certain these are manufacturing defects rather than something...

    QuarkXpress 7

    Most Mac's built after Nov2009 won't run Q7.5 and OSX10.6.x (there is a similar thread on the quark forum) Some people have reported getting v7.1 or 7.2 to run. The main downside of opening a v7 file in v8 would be text reflow, my experience opening a v7.0 in v7.1 or 7.2 or 7.5 or simply using a...

    Cs6?

    Between the announcement of CS6 and actual shipping dates Adobe usually allows about a one month grace period during which purchasing or upgrading to CS5.5 would qualify you for a free upgrade to CS6. In reality the CS5.5 boxes will disappear from the retailers within a week or so, and there is...

    Jagged Text Outline Punk and Bloat style

    I've been out for a bit but today have been in touch with the designer and got hold of the native files, it turns out the split text file is a Freehand MX EPS, open the EPS in FreehandMX and its magically back as text shapes, open the EPS with Illy or Distill and you have the long strips. I'm...

    Jagged Text Outline Punk and Bloat style

    Lukas has suggested its a clipping path that has been split due to the number of points, I'm thinking that a whole paragraph of text converted to outline is a sort of compound path with many many points and somewhere an application is deciding to simplify this by splitting it into horizontal...

    Jagged Text Outline Punk and Bloat style

    I have a PDF (according to its properties its created by Distiller 9.0.0 from QuarkXPress pictwpstops filter 1.0) of an outer cover it has the wrong spine size so I'd usually place this 3 times in InDesign and create a new one with the correct size spine. 1st question: What looks like text in...

    Using ECI-RGBv2 instead of AdobeRGB

    I thought Perceptual moved ALL the colours (the whole space) not just "those colours available in the original colour space but not in the destination colour space". I also had no idea that the rendering intent had to be included in the destination profile so am hoping to learn more.

    Using ECI-RGBv2 instead of AdobeRGB

    RGB to another RGB space Perceptual, wouldn't that be the same result as Assign Profile. Perceptual aims to keep the differences at the expense of the colour or am I having a doh! moment. Fascinating discussion by the way.
