Maybe, and you are probably correct but I don't have any such software that requires Java 6 runtime and I have a lot's of the software installed. I am not developer but if software asked me to install Java 6 runtime, I would hesitate due to old version or due to perception of old version, at...

That is the latest version of Preps, are you sure it requires Java 6? If so, than Preps is really out od date.

Is it possible that you can not get vector trapped PDF out of XMF? I mean could there be setting or something that you missed, any other XMF users that might help?

We are using Printready workflow and automatic assignment. I can not remember last time we had to manually assign colour to certain patch. Since presets are done automatically by Printready, it all works very well. I remember many years ago when we were using Brisque, we had to manually assign...

Usually Rip vendors have their own ways to automate, I would suggest you research it there first. Unfortunately I am not familiar with Caldera and Prepare-It, but if you are looking for excellent automation tool for file manipulation, Enfocus Switch is hard to beat, especially when you pair it...

Ditto to what Dabob and Arosetti said, just to add for example on Nexpress, even though it is digital device, you can utilize additional toner (5th unit) that will complement CMYK to expand colour gamut and create close match to actual Pantone colour, so leaving spot channel as such is desired...

Even folded dummy can be misleading without artwork on it to show proper fold, which side is in and which out. Sometimes design can be misinterpreted by different operators, you definitely do not want to play guessing game in Bindery, it can lead to spoilage. Perhaps description with written...

Sorry, I did not see this earlier. We use Kongsberg table in our Wide Format department, we also use it for packaging mockups and special projects, however we did not have need to cut any plates so far. You are correct that you need marks for registration with camera. You can either use special...

I have X, XI and DC installed concurrently, it works ok. I am not sure if I am the only one but since installing DC, every time I launch Acrobat X I have to enter serial number again. This is daily occurrence.

We are running 2015. To me it's not about being worth it but being on top of the latest technology as well as support. If you ever have issue with your software and you contact support, they will tell you install latest version and try. Nobody will support old versions of software and I am not...

Forum must have scaled it down automatically. Sent an email with attachment.

No Title It's Prinect and perhaps attached screenshot can help explain. There is much more to Calibration tool and that dialog change accordingly. I am not expert on it though.

I can not comment on that particular job since I don't have hands on it, but if I did, I am sure I would be able to troubleshoot and figure out what is wrong. Not every Indesign job is a problem, it depends who started it and how good designer is who created document in the first place. We make...

I wanted to reply only "Yep!" but forum would not take post that is shorter than 10 characters. Fonts are hit and miss, you can use Font Management app or my best workaround is to use Indesign application font folder, usually fonts work ok when placed there. Layered Tiff files could be...

Cool, thanks

Joe, would you recommend Kodak do the upgrade or you are ok doing it yourself?

Why not run Meta, same vendor, same workflow, same APPE that renders plates. We've been using Meta for 7 years and it always perfectly matched plate output, never disrepancy. 1-bit tiff to proofer is waste of time and overprotecting if you ask me.

Great, thanks. We were stuck on Preps 5 than we switched to Signa Station. We would certainly have to get training for Preps 7.

Joe, I was told by Kodak rep that we should upgrade from Prinergy 5.2 to latest version only if we get training as well, since interface and how everything works is changed significantly. Is there merit to this and how easy is to migrate, learn new interface? Thanks

We are running Trendsetter and Kodak did not tell us anything yet. Trendsetter is still a beast that does not break down, amazing machine.
