We have changed from Fiery to Onyx as our wide format RIP, because of hardware change. I am having problem understanding how to affect print order of white and view visualise separations. How do I control ink order if I want CMYK under white. white under CMYK or CMYK white CMYK As is now it...

Trying to calibrate a Xerox 700, but I keep getting yellow contamination spots, when sending device CMYK even on linearisation I see a yellow dot pattern. Does anyone have any advice on how I can deal with this?

Some will understand where the question comes from, but wanted to ask the community as a whole. When targeting ISO or eg FOGRA 39 do you have linear CTP plates? Is it important? Are you able to hit the target TVI curves on paper? If you are having problems to get the TVI for FOGRA 39, would be...

I missed the Adobe CS6 launch tour since I was traveling to Drupa the same day… was expecting to see something from Adobe… if nowhere else at least via other companies, but I didn't see anything? How do we interpret this?

I was asked by some students at Brobygrfiska in Sweden about if I had tips for internships, those students studying packaging design. They do have good knowledge of english, and know how to use Adobe software as well as Esko plug-ins and will send a portfolio. But I don't have enough knowledge...

I'm looking for a script that can replace a "find" expression, typically "myImage.jpg" with character style "imageLabel" (or GREP expression would also work), with a linked image of the file "myImage.jpg" in an anchored object, with objectStyle "myObject". I can find a script to look for fames...

I'm trying to help out to set up some quality control procedures at my "old" job, so I'm wondering if there is any basic software to run reference check on a Ugra/Fogra Media Wedge CMYK v3.0. The idea is that the operator should be able to scan his/her reference and see how values compare to...

21 december the Altona Test suite 2.0 was released, as I understand it. It's supposed to be a test for PDFx4, opentype etc… (Technical Page 2 of the Altona Test Suite 2.0 released [ECI.ORG]) Just wondering if anyone had looked at them, and if so would like to hear your opinions.

Just hope you al had a great christmas, and want to wish you all a happy new year :D

Some things are hard to write. These days I am not so involved in day operations of prepress, but last week I visited my old job. It was sad to hear how they were disappointed by the local sales reps, getting the feeling that being a stable customer made them uninteresting to the regional sales...

Just interested to hear in your views on narrow or wide black in your GCR. Correct me if I'm wrong but I understand it as narrow means GCR in near neutrals only and wide means that even the high chroma colours will have black in as soon as it is possible.

In a world where academics have the last word, and where a field is not academic until there is an area of formal research, I'm wondering what formal research is there in the field of prepress. Much of pushing the borders is done in software development, and to some extent in beta testing and...

Just wondering how many are using CS Review. I have known about it for some time and have used the screen sharing and PDF notations for some time, but recently I have a project which gives me the chance to look into CS review. I find it has some good features, but can be a bit slow (perhaps...

Just need to check what you are using. I'd also love to hear the arguments you have. I am hoping all agree, but please be honest.

I was preparing for a colour management seminar and find my PNG screen dumps are no longer placable unless the file is sRGB (InDesign now gives error that the file is not a valid PNG if it has other profile than sRGB...*that is the good part) The bad part is that if the InDesign file has other...

I haven't decided if this is a bug or a feature... but with a macbook and gestures enabled it is possible to rotate the master overlay (and/or everything on the page) by selcting a page and useing the rotate gesture. I see no dialouge telling me I can do this, an am still in a bit of a shock so...

Hope you all have at least a moment off to think about your life priorities and spend some time with those that are important to you. Happy Christmas :)

With Adobe CS5 we needed to uppgrade a few machines, some hardware and some software. I find myself once again with the dilema of Windows servers and NAS devices not accepting the mac loggon strategy. IN OSX 10.6 the OS tries to logg on as guest directly, somehow I can see some folders, but I am...
