    Hardware to address magazine?

    What you are looking for is an inkjet from Domino, Videojet, or several others. That being said, you will also need to get mailing software to process the mailing lists through CASS, DPV, and NCOA.

    MACs - PCs - ExtremeZ - SMB

    The fonts with 0kb are older Pre OS X fonts with the actual font information in the resource fork instead of the data fork like newer fonts. That being said, if you copy fonts from a Mac to an SMB mounted drive, you should maintain the resource fork of the font. When looking at the mapped drive...

    Cross Media Pricing - How?

    Price according to value, not according to your costs, but keep your costs in mind so you don't lose money. When you price just based on your costs you get where we are today, a cut-throat industry.

    The Battle Continues

    One of the reasons why IT would want you to switch to Windows is so they can control permissions of your computer and what you have access to through the use of Group Policy. They would also want to make sure you can't install your own software, so you would not be an Administrator of the local...

    Colour Mapping and custom colours in Nexus

    You can't tell a color to Overprint by default using the Raster part of Nexus. I believe you can when using the Vector part or the PDF part. You create a trapping pair and make dieline a technical ink.

    VDP directly out of InDesign with no plugins? How?

    Creating a PDF from InDesign is now done as a background process. You will need to open the background process window to see the progress of the creation. You should notice you can't close your InDesign document because it is creating the PDF in the background.

    Your recommendation on Management Informaiton Systems (MIS)

    Just glancing at Netsuite, I doubt it would fit the bill for a commercial printer. Estimating for commercial printing is unique. That being said, there is a different piece of software which does work with printing companies and other industries as well. It was in the article you reference...

    Imposition Upgrade or New Imposition

    I would also recommend looking at Metrix. The company I was working at before was using Preps 5 and was working on switching to Metrix. We had looked at Preps 6 and realized it was going to take relearning the software so decided to look for alternatives. What we found with Metrix was more than...

    Who has the best all-around package for web-to-print?

    Something else to consider when looking at these web to print systems and demos. Most of them look and function good on the customer facing side. When it comes to the backend workflow, they fall flat on their face. Some systems require you to manually release each order. This sounds great at...

    GMC PrintNet T and PDF Transparency

    If you want to maintain the native transparencies, you will need to "Place". "Loading Natively" will convert the PDF into native elements within GMC, thus loosing any effects GMC doesn't support.

    Customer Folder Management

    I would like to get feedback from others on the structure of your customer/client/job folder. I realize every job will have its own folder, but where does the job folder reside. Currently we have a folder for each customer and inside of that folder is the job folder Example: Customer A > Job...

    Using both NIC's on your network is possible. It doesn't happen how you described though. What you will end up in doing is called Link Aggregation Link aggregation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. You will need to configure your switch to allow for this as well as crating a "Bridge...
