I would be interested to know if it was simply a location price difference. Like New York vs Chicago vs Los Angeles vs Dallas. It might not be country wide, only that specific geographic areas.

We run Prinergy, and looked at XMF a year or so ago. It looked pretty interesting, but for us it was missing the Rules Based Automation function, which we use a lot. I know now that some of the automation could be achieved via Enfocus Switch. Still definitely worth a look.

Simple answer is Fusion Pro is a plugin for Adobe Acrobat. And they have a companion plugin that will work with Adobe InDesign too, to help speed up the design work in Acrobat. But the final work needs to be done in Adobe Acrobat.

Going back to the original questions: Does the software perform in the manner you would expect? Yes. Was it easy to learn? Yes. Could the output file go directly to your print queue without any additional modifications? Yes, in theory. And what features are “must haves” before you would consider...

vdpdf, Conversion might not be as much as an issue. I tried with a PDF that already had bleed and crop marks in the file, which incorrectly altered the page size and duplicated the crop marks. Maybe a way around this would be to put a note saying to include the PDF or image to include bleed...

I gave it a quick try too. 1. Initial reaction, like the look and feel. 2. I do like all the options for the layout on the first step. 3. I agree with another poster about step two, being a bit confusing to load both the data file and pdf into the same area. 4. Would be nice to have the top '1...

Out of curiosity, which don't? I've only seen a couple and they were quite low contrast. Although, I heard that one is in the process of making a newer version with a higher contrast.

Basha, don't you mean Illustrator? Possumgal, I haven't used Multi-Ad Creator, but that sounds like something that would be closer to features in InDesign or at least that could be achieved with plug-ins. Even though Illustrator will let you do multiple art boards, which is nice. But InDesign...

Could be a sensor having a hard time reading the plates on occasion. We've had that here, with a rainbow banding on the back side of the Fuji plates, that will sometimes cause issues with our Magnus. So now, we look for it when we are loading the plates, and correct the issue before it ever gets...

Trying not to take over the thread. But seeing someone else post about Roboto, reminds me about the Release Notes for Prinergy where it references it in quite a few versions. And then checking on Kodak's Partner Portal, I found a link to this article...

We have the 135, and service calls for us, in the beginning we quite frequent, but we also push the limit as the stock we run. Right up to and sometimes over what the machine is supposed to run. But when we run it right in the middle of the specs, it runs great. We've got almost 20mil on the...

That was pretty funny, about the Pantone. I must admit the the names of color are sometimes quite interesting.

Sure, you come on in and push the button, then, if it's so easy.

Gordo, like you I was on my way to Print '01. But my trip was from Grand Rapids, MI to Chicago via train. My first train ride actually. Which back then we did not have internet on my phone, just portable headphones with stereo. The train was stopped numerous times on the way. I got on the train...

I remember those days too. But I remember it more as, the laser had written edits on it that were not on the Zip disk. Way more confusing. Sometimes the lasers and the Zip matched, but not always. At least now, you get on file, unless they send in a revision.

It's your retirement gift early. Should also come with a great medical plan and a lifetime job. But I'd always be wearing a glove.

pd, Another thought, maybe place the PDF in Indesign without 'Separations Preview' being ON. And that should show you the PDF without Overprint Preview, and without the need to turn it off and on again in Acrobat, which is a PAIN. We do that quite a bit in our shop as we get files from all...

We are a Mac shop. We use Macs for just about everything, unless we absolutely can't. And as far as our Mailing department, they use Macs running virtual machines for their software. I am more familiar with a Mac, but I also know it is only a tool. That is why I have both on my desk. Use what...

It's been a long time since I worked with a Dolev 800, but normal issues I would look for is, wires that are not making good connections or a not connected. DO NOT just go plugging in cables that are not plugged in currently unless you KNOW they are supposed to be plugged in. Then also look for...

For stubborn contacts I have used a contact enhancer for many years called "Stabilant 22". I have seen it bring back equipment that would not respond to a normal "cleaning" of the contacts. I have included a link to their site that explains it more. Might help in your situation.
