    Convert Pantone to CMYK

    Chevalier, Thanks for the info. I did not know about the four dots in the Pantone legacy book. All I can find in the shop are swatch books supplied by ink manufacturers. Those books only list the build info, ex. 55.7 Process blue, 47.2 Rubine Red, 3 Process Black. Looks like a press trial...

    Convert Pantone to CMYK

    Hello All, How do you determine the cmyk value for a Pantone. I have a customer that wanted to make some last minute color changes to their files. They supply pantone numbers knowing we would have to convert them to CMYK values. We convert the Pantone values in Indesign CS5. When we got to...

    Rampage to Prinergy?

    I came from a very large printer that used Prinergy. I was part of the implementation of Prinergy in our plant. Now I am at a medium sized printer that has Rampage. I believe each has strong points. In a very general sense Prinergy is made more for automation. Rampage has automation but...

    Luscher Set Back

    Joe, I did restart the queue after I made the changes. I can see a move but it will only go to the same position as when I have it set to 0,0. I know I could make adjustments in the imposition but I do not what to have an imposition for each device. The other setup is a backup solution incase...

    Hello, I have a Luscher Xpose 160. I was wondering if anyone can give me guidance on how to control the set back in the spool folder. The manual that I have does not define how to do this. I need to match plate position to another offsite Lucsher. When in the Luscher Q2 Configuration Editor...

    I do not have PHS. My best guess is that is being caused by static electricity. Any other thoughts?

    Luscher in automatic mode

    Not sure what PHS is? I am able to get into the support menu that the tech's use. It has areas for laser readout and a bunch of other stuff. Not sure what I should be looking for in there? R

    Hello, I have a Luscher Xpose 160. A couple times a day it will freeze up and give and error message of "Machine in Automatic Mode". Does anyone know what causes this? I checked the short and sweet manual, but it does not say anything about that message. I have to turn the device off and...

    Ramproof

    All, Thanks for the feedback. How do you verify that your proofs are in spec? How often? Mike, Why is it necessary to have a tech come in to re-calibrate? Can't you create/modify ICC profiles with software like Monaco Profiler? How does Rampage/Ramproof handle the ICC profiles? Is it...

    Ramproof

    How are you generating color accurate proofs in the RAMpage workflow? I am looking to run the proofs on an Epson. Are there many using Ramproof with the ICC profiling? Or a third party solution like Oris?

    Film Scanning

    Does anyone have the ability to scan imposed film and have it broken into single pages? Something like an Eskoscan? I have 18 titles of 16 page books that I need scanned. I am a smaller printer located in central WI and I only have a 12" x 18" flat bed scanner. I would prefer not to destroy...

    Illustrator mouse over highlights

    OK, I must have entered a key command in Illustrator that now highlights everything the mouse moves over. I am not talking about the preference setting that highlights anchors. Whenever I move the mouse across the screen, it highlight whatever it goes over. I had this happen once before, but...

    How do you handle RGB?

    How are you handling RGB files when they process through Rampage? Do you have it abort on RGB images? Do you use the default conversion LUT of RGB2CMYK? Or do you have a custom profile? If you have a custom profile, how did you create it? Thanks!
