Hello, Still use film every day. The image setter has gone. We use an Epson ink jet now. Twelve inks installed but we only use black. Sad really. Very narrow web fed flexo print.

Hello, Thinking about purchasing PACKZ. Anyone got anything negative to say about it?

I reckon SAAS is the way to go to start with. If this really takes off for you then you could revisit an in house solution in the future. We use GMC and this will handle both print and email content but it does not come cheap...

Never had trouble with Skype from a laptop but if you use a smartphone then you might experience drops in signal. If you really want an alternative then look at 'Go to meeting'.

Hello Kringle, My bad. I was expecting an announcement on the home page. Once I got into the HP Indigo Forum I got the sad news... "The question about billing was not about making money or covering costs- it was about the perceived value amongst the users, 80% said they wouldn't pay less than...

Hello, I've been a member for years. It's struggling but are you certain it's closing?

Ok. Well in that case have a quick look at https://colourprofiling.com I've not used it myself but I've heard good things about it. It's a cloud based profile maker that is pay as you go. if you a feeling adventurous then there is Argyll CMS...

Hello, I think you can install i1Profiler on as many machines as you like. It's the i1 that acts as a USB dongle.

Ok...I'm no expert but I think you need to view your converted CMYK image in soft proofing mode to see how it might appear when printed. Otherwise you are looking at a RGB device doing an impersonation of a CMYK device whist allowing for a theoretical substrate...

Well Geozinger, I agree with you on almost everything you posted. I got started about the time of Quark 4. Now for what we need Quark 4 would still do the trick. By the time we got to Quark 7 we agreed to stop renewing our ten licenses. £10,000 is a lot to pay for a whole heap of ...

Maybe ten years ago it would have been difficult to run PC only prepress department. Now software and fonts work equally well on both systems most of the time. Today there is no reason why you cannot or must not switch. ​​​​Let's be honest, Apple no longer regard print as one of the...

Love it. Where can I buy one? .... hmmm .... maybe I can whittle one?

My grandmother had something similar to hold balls of string. It wasn't as ornate as yours Gordo. I don't have a photo of it but I found something similar... see the link below.

Hello Try to see if you can see one "in the flesh" if you can. You might find it feels a little flimsy / toy like. Check out the ITD Mercury Series. Not sure if they have any dealers/support where you are but they are worth checking out. ​​

Well . . . The Jack Kerouac quote was used by Apple in Think Different commercials. Is it a young Steve Jobs? ​​

Good to know . . . Thanks for the link

I still have Quark 8 on two Macs. Use it about three times a month. I have lots of old HP Smart Stream jobs that use the Quark plug in. We used Markwearz Q2ID to convert our old documents to Indesign. We needed it for about one year and it did a really nice job of the conversion. I never had a...

Hello Mellow yellow, I'm away from my Mac at the moment so I can't be specific. One way to script automation is to use System Events on your Mac. It's crazy dangerous so you need to take care. Basically you are going to send a set of keyboard strokes to the app of your choice. But if you get...

No Title Hello Mellowyellow, I am not sure what you wan to achieve here. You want to Print the File but your Post is called "Flight Check". If you want to Preflight a PDF then Adobe Acrobat will allow you to save any Preflight (custom or default) as a Droplet App. (You can see the screen shot...

Wikipedia.... "In colorimetry, metamerism is a perceived matching of the colors that, based on differences in spectral power distribution, do not actually match. Colors that match this way are called metamers." "The term illuminant metameric failure is sometimes used to describe situations...
