How can you align one object the press with ink set A, (4 specific hues) with another object with ink set B ( 4 to 8 different non matching hues) IMO the best you can do is profile the press and consistently run to that standard, profile the proofer as best as possible and manage the client...

I prefer manager expectations.

Ok here's what I see, objects in the file, image A,B,C and D, vector A,B,C and D. They all look, under controlled viewing conditions one way on the proof and another way on the printed product. Matching means they look the same way on both. The best example of that definition would be to pull...

AP90, there are issues with all software, the cons of CorelDraw certainly but more so Corel corporation is that they have totally left long document support go. Maybe that's because the return on investment is not there. As far as I know therein lies the only real advantage for Adobe products...

PricelineNegotiator I can only say that computers are the now and future and when you're not moving forward you're automatically moving backward. You'll be mentally stimulated keeping up with the technology of the systems which of course means changes to keep up with in terms of software. I...

I did my first SSD about 5 or 6 years ago I believe and I haven't looked back, typical installation now is OS on a 512 SSD and 1 or 2 - 1 or 2 TB drives for storage. NVidia display cards all the way.

What do you mean futzing around? You install the software and it just works. Just built a system for a client, assembled the parts installed the software, updated the software and delivered the device. All printers and scanners (all less then 5 years old) simply installed and worked. Windows 10...

Now back on to photoshop alternatives, I've updated to PaintShop Pro X9, now to be clear the almost exclusive reason I use PS is to RIP lousy Adobe PDF files to a Raster and it appears the PaintShop Pro X9 may work out. Doing so from Acrobat is way too slow. I need more testing. I'm currently...

>we just upgraded an 8 year old mac to a mac mini we still have an old mac pro running as a work station First your MAC is jut a PC with a different operating system, if your PC's don't last there can be a couple reasons, 1, they get used more, 2, you bought inferior components. I make sure my...

Of course I'm not a typical user, my wife is a typical PC user, Jane and Joe the office person is a typical user, most likely 150 million of them, we in graphics should be professionals. If you can't make a modern Windows 10 64 bit Pro system run like a race car you may not want to use a computer.

Ok is it me or what? I've been doing graphics since 1975, started out on R Hoe metal decorators, ran 6 color Heidelberg presses, went into management, ran a few companies then started my own. I've bought printing all over the United States, I do high end color correcting for architectural...

Today that's not how it is, my largest CorelDraw client has over 200 employees and 1 IT guy, no MACs in the building. When did you last work at Creo? I also bet all the secure data was on the server. I currently personally own 12 machines all my production systems are 64 bit Windows 10, my...

I started using Pc's in 1990, now so much of my work is 250" to 125' and CorelDraw allows me to work at 100% size for that work. CorelDraw also allows second to none quality in all print except long documents. If you do allot of 40+ page work CorelDraw is not the best choice. Photo-PAINT is...

Gordo I tried the Affinity PC BETA, crashed a lot (it was BETA) also was WAAAY too much like an Adobe/MAC product for me I just can't think like that. I did try Capture One Pro 9, a decent program a lot for the money but $400 for a RAW /Image editor with an end result that was not any better...

Don't be sorry I'm happy with an I7 quad core, 8 tread, 32 GB ram, 2 gb video, a 512 SSD and 2 - 2TB WD drives, 3 USB 3 ports, DVD all in one drive, and an SD multi-reader for $1185 hard not to be.

pualy92 I do quite a few donor walls we use starfire (iron free glass) all the time if you'd like an opportunity to look at a future project that may come up email me at davidmilisockgraphictechnology.com all this work is architectural in nature and many times takes a year or more in the design...

pauly92 your glass substrate is very stable when compared to vinyl which can and does change from roll to roll let alone lot to lot. Our artistic media is better as far as stability goes and we have a great grey balance profile for that. We do a few archival prints a few thousand a year. As far...

It was an interesting show, I was there for a few business meetings but had time to walk the floor and talk to many vendors. WOW what a change over the last 15 years, NO MACS and NO ADOBE at all period. The only software I saw was proprietary applications to run output devices and every device...

With about 45 years of experience and experience with wide and grand format work since it began most of this talk is a waste of time. We use many media, we use basically 4 on a regular basis, each media requires a specific profile for each print speed and output resolution. Each profile costs us...
