    File creation for large and grand format/ Adobe alternatives

    Oh my God PDF files just crap out imagine 300 inch PDF files let alone 50' or bigger. Try working at full scale with a 5 page document each page 100' width x 65' height with building images on each with sign mock ups with drop shadows with an Adobe product. We buy quite a bit of grand format 10'...

    File creation for large and grand format/ Adobe alternatives

    You clearly don't work in grand format. A 250 meg file is nothing. And Photoshop can take hours with a large file. I had a 1.6GB PSD file a wall paper job with smart objects, changes took 18 minutes each, 12 changes, saving the file on a GB network 26 minutes. I have every one stay off the...

    File creation for large and grand format/ Adobe alternatives

    All the above and no THEY'RE IDIOTS, can you say LAYERS? I looked at the last file and damn near every idot mistake that can be made has been. We have to seam the file for a 54" printer so there has to be some editing. I have a new file that just came in it's an RGB 240" x 183.5 at 125 PPI...

    File creation for large and grand format/ Adobe alternatives

    To all we get PSD, PSB and TIF files and in fact Adobe Photoshop performance with tiff, PSD and PSB is a new definition of AWFUL. Layered or flattened Corel CPT or TIF files of the same size simply process in about 1/3 or less the time. Smart objects are a cause for slitting my wrists.

    File creation for large and grand format/ Adobe alternatives

    IMO size is not the issue it's the lousy performance of Adobe products. Working with large image file 85" x 65" 125ppi or larger in Corel Photo-PAINT is simply a lot faster. It comes down to money and time is money.

    File creation for large and grand format/ Adobe alternatives

    Not sure I'm posting in the right area. Ok we do a lot of window graphics UNFORTUNATELY! We get PSD and PSB files that are just awful, 1.5 GB files ad for 3 edits and a save it took 3 1/2 hours if we getsmart objects we just pray and get more coffee. Not one file but many dozens of files over...

    93% of online responses are driven by direct mail

    Clearly they didn't poll me, I haven't read a piece of mail in years. My staff screens it and they are told that everything except checks and bills go to the trash. My real mail goes to the house and everything but checks, bills and mail from family goes in the trash.

    Remove the ban from Turbotom.

    So I read tuorbotoms post, if this is what got him banned someone needs help. You should try being an idiot and working in the field with men that carry M16's. I've seen so many BAD LEADERS in the last 40 years I can't count them or asses the damage they've done to the companies they ran, the...

    Remove the ban from Turbotom.

    >Sounds like a union worker-oops that was below the belt, I'll keep the gloves up. ​At the risk of getting banned judging from the management I see today most (99.9%) could use a good kick in the pants! I just tried a new print vendor for products we couldn't produce, so I was a CASH ACCOUNT...

    Using LAB values to create a color chart - what can go wrong?

    All of them, paper changes during the run. An example would be the time we spent making swatches and profiles for an inkjet, all was well until three days later the new lot of media was different, significantly different. In my view balancing color management with production realities are not...

    >what can go wrong You've ask the wrong question. The correct question is what wouldn't go wrong?

    The Upgrade Request

    From my experience with testing and forums users can sometimes push application publishers to provide features that we (when first released) would be better off without. Example the early days of transparency in vector applications, I said BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU ASK FOR. Well we all see how that...

    Identifying layered TIFs in InDesign

    Draw not being an image editor cannot edit them, it can flatten them directly within Draw. there is a direct interface though with Photo-PAINT, the only problem is that now you have an image in your file that is not universally compatible. Layrd TIFF is a bad idea. No crashing in Draw just a...

    Identifying layered TIFs in InDesign

    Then why does the guy in this post have to find them? Our 3 RIPS fail with them, flat tiff only please. CorelDraw sees them as does Corel Photo-PAINT, they're just smart enough not to save in the layered tiff format.

    Identifying layered TIFs in InDesign

    I understand TIFF I just don't understand layered TIFF files. WTH, TIFF files were great layered TIFF files have been a PITA.
