You should be able to make them grayscale with spot channels. Add a new empty spot channel, move it to the top, select it, then Image > Mode > Grayscale. You can then save as TIFF.

Do you have a printed sample of the correct colorbar? If so, you could probably just create a PDF or EPS file from scratch to match it. I don't know anything about your particular hardware. If I had a scanner and needed to figure out what it needed for a colorbar (and had no physical sample to...

I would do a binary search. See if pg 472 matches the 472nd record. If so, check pg 708. If not, check page 236. You should be able to zero in on the first mismatch in this manner after checking ten pages. I suspect something about the records there will stand out as the cause.

If it's any consolation, quoting is available for abuse.

Great premiere post, ddonevski. I'd say that sums it up very well. Welcome to the forum!

I'm fairly certain the current version is all HTML (ours is Flash but it's a couple of versions old). I've reworked the script assuming you'd be running it on a Mac instead of Linux, and that you would run it on the same machine Flip PDF Professional is installed on. It assumes the webroot of...

We're doing this for some of our customers to provide an online version of their catalog to their customers. We don't use it for proofing and I wouldn't call it a proof unless it was given PDF proofs from the RIP where every page is a single image. We're using the "professional" Mac version...

If you have any spare press units, you can try taking the sheet off impression in the middle of the press. For example, in a five unit press, instead of printing black-cyan-magenta-yellow-(off impression), you can print black-cyan-(off impression)-magenta-yellow. Depending on the press and the...

For printing processes, gamut is usually represented as a three dimensional volume in CIELAB space. RGB monitors often have their gamut represented as a triangle on the xy plane (with the horseshoe shape) since they can be simply described that way. The horseshoe shape is usually seen on a two...

"Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to eat for lunch. Freedom comes from the recognition of certain rights which may not be taken, not even by a 99% vote." The first sentence in various forms is often, and probably incorrectly, attributed to Benjamin Franklin. Full quote from...

Don't worry about not getting back to me quickly. I'm certainly in no hurry! The file "names.csv" is Windows 1252. I can only tell that because that is the interpretation that yields the most correct file - there isn't anything in the file data that explicitly marks it as a Windows 1252 file...

I'm going to shorten my reference to the person's name to just their last name, so this page hopefully won't be the first hit on a Google search for them. :) Is "Capek" an acceptable substitution for "ÄŒapek?" I was eventually planning to arrive at a solution that would give you "Capek," since...

The Bulk Mailer software is taking in a CSV/text file you've saved from Excel (not an Excel file) right? For your example data, if you were to save it as a UTF-8 (or whatever Excel might wrongly call it) CSV file, then import it into Bulk Mailer, I would expect names like "AARÓN" and...

No Title ASCII only defines the 128 code points that seven bit characters can produce. Text files are typically eight bits per character, since that's the smallest possible atomic data unit on almost any computer. The extra eighth bit doubles the possible code points to 256. Most text files...

If you have Acrobat Professional, you can duplicate all pages of the active PDF by putting this in the Javascript console and executing it: for (var ThisPage=this.numPages-1;ThisPage >= 0;ThisPage--){this.insertPages({nPage:ThisPage,cPath:this.path,nStart:ThisPage});} If you don't know how to...

I'm guessing that under Object > Image Color Settings... most of the links are set to "Use Document Default," and the exceptional links are set to use their embedded profile. I believe it always reads "override" if a profile for the link was chosen in Indesign that is not embedded in the file.

No Title This would probably be easier with Enfocus Pitstop, but here's one possible solution with Acrobat: Create a preflight fixup that redefines the alternate color of the spot color (to CMYK, with values of zero for CMY). Unfortunately, this forces you to do a complete resave as fixups...

No Title Dov, If you're able to convince the Indesign people to change the PDF export behavior for stroked text, I would also suggest to them a few more changes: 1) If text has a fill other than none or white and a stroke of zero width applied, to omit the stroke (this often causes undesired...

It looks like Gregg is using the context-dependent toolbar for the "PitStop Inspect" tool category, and PrintIT is using the "Quick Tools" that is always at the top of document windows, and has added some Pitstop tools to it. Both look fine to me, but I'm still on Pitstop 12 (latest DC...

They're all just black clicks here. Machine: Konica Minolta Bizhub C8000 Product: Fiery PRO80 80C-KM PS Color Server 2.0 Version: 2.0 Software: 9 Rel2 Print settings are attached. The one potentially relevant setting not listed in the PDF is "Adobe PDF Print Engine Preferred," which we have off.
