    TRY TO PREFLIGHT THIS !!

    Just for kicks I opened the file in Esko PackEdge-the icons were filled with white-set to overprint. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    Windows 11

    I meant don't wait because of an impending revision to 11. You'll be able to run 10 for years to come and you won't miss 7 at all.

    Windows 11

    We held out on upgrading from 7 to 10 until early 2020. Much more secure and easier for our IT department to maintain. The transition has been pretty painless. Most people were familiar with Windows 10 for a while seeing that they had laptops and tablets at home already running 10. Go for it!

    chriscozi no shade intended. I agree with you that at the very least they could've mentioned it in the release notes...this is Adobe we're talking about though... just upgrade, you'll love it ;-)

    Adobe Photoshop - Workflow Change in Vs. 22.4

    chriscozi-I just upgraded this morning and saw what you mentioned. If they click on Save a Copy all the old options are there. Also, if you click on the Info button it brings up a dialogue box with a More Info button. This takes you to an Adobe help page explaining all the new options...

    Editing a Normalized PDF in Illustrator

    To be clear, editing an ESKO normalized PDF is not our typical workflow-we were in a jam. I'm not sure why ESKO uses that format but even they are moving away from that clunky beast. Thanks for chiming in Dov.

    Nice Gordo - just a little April Fools fun. Personally, I like the Lucid EV.

    Where's Your Ambition?

    Gordo that's brutal. True, but no one ever says it. Every family-owned business I've ever worked at had some junior born on 3rd base strutting around like he hit a triple.

    Photoshop 16-Bit Mode in 10-Bit Display. How does it work ?

    In my experience, professional photographers prefer 16 bit but a conventional offset press can only utilize 8 bit-anything more is overkill, creating bloated files that are a pain to push around and manage. Not that the difference is indiscernible but to the average viewer it is not worth it...

    Illustrator question

    We have a client who provides extremely complex files that they use a single clipping mask to create 4, 5, or 6 individual parts. I am drawing a blank on a good way to turn that single clipping mask into separate files. The way they create it, I end up duplicating it and then deleting the...

    Font management - Mac vs. Windows

    EEM thank you for your thoughtful and in-depth reply! My experiences mirrored yours in many respects. At a previous workplace, we too kept a Windows workstation to get through Windows issues.
