Can even just be the complexity of such files. They play nice in Illustrator and Indesign, and then when they are saved as a PDF the output is a really complex PDF which redraws really slowly. Vector graphics being the main culprit in most of the cases I've seen. Every time you do something it...

Not any more I'm afraid. These days I can help you out with Imposition, ganging or nesting, or maybe even automating your finishing though? I left Enfocus in November 2021. You can always reach out to Enfocus support and see if they can assist?

No idea. You would need to ask Esko. but that interface has had those options for years, you don't seem to have the ability to define a color for some reason.

Yep, I'll pass thanks. Sounds fraught with danger and a lot of manual work. There are other better solutions IMHO.

You called! Somethings not right, you should see more options like this.

So you convert everything to an image in Photoshop and then add bleed? Doesn't that cause problems with unsupported PDF constructions and Spot Colors? Trying to understand how this works, can you give a bit more info?

You might want to post a sample file or files. If Puzzleflow had any export capabilities like JDF they would be worth adding as well. But I would think it would be a bit of a long shot.

Hi there Nothing wrong with Quite Imposing, but you might want to take a look at Impostrip as well. We've already replaced Dynagram in quite a few sites, and custom marks are no problem. https://imposition.com If you would be interested in having a look let me know and I can arrange it.

PitStop and Callas (Acrobat) have the functionality to allow you to remove content that is outside of a PDF Page Box. In Acrobat you are looking for a Fixup (wrench icon) called 'Remove page objects which are completely outside of page area' This is based on the Media Box, you can edit this and...

'Enable native OS mode for optimal performance' this enables M1/ME native support. Turn it off and it uses Rosetta emulation. I assume you are running on an Intel Mac if you don't see the option?

PDF/X-4 with a GRACol2013 Output Intent

If everything looks fine that's a start. A few things to check. Is your Acrobat set up correctly to show overprint? Acrobat Preferences > Page Display > Use Overprint Preview. It should be set to 'Always' Default is "Only for PDF/X files' If you have PitStop check that the overprint mode that...

Define Text with Variables > Stats > Trim Box Height/Trim Box Width Two separate fields Also Switch internally works in points, so you'll need to deal with that, also a tolerance as well

There is no batch run in the Acrobat version, you need PitStop Server for that

This is a good place to start. PitStop workshops | Enfocus When I was there I started monthly workshops to go through all the features and we talked extensively about Preflight. They are an hour long, and there's about 90 of them now I think.

Long shot, but you could call Esko?

This is the one you are looking for. https://gwg.org/gos5/

One of my better ideas... :)

Good plan but please read the instructions on the Output Suite. It can be very useful, but you should know what it is for, and what it is not for!

It should depend if the type is part of the transparency group, you should be able to see that in Acrobat if you open the Flattener preview and ask it to highlight 'all affected objects'. If the text is knocking out then it probably is part of it.
