I have a new customer sending in files using the PANTONE GOE libraries in photoshop, illustrator and indesign. Pantone no longer provides a link to download these from and I do not have them laying around anymore. Anyone have these available?

We are getting into shrink sleeve production and I have been tasked with researching and recommending a 3D scanner to be used to scan supplied bottles and containers to create 3D models which will be used in Studio Toolkit for shrink sleeves. Does anyone have any recommendations they would be...

At one point I stumbled across a PDF how to guide published by HP on shrink sleeve production. I have looked everywhere but cant seem to find it now. Does anyone out there have a copy saved or can point me in the right direction to find it. I have looked all over dscoop and MyHpIndio but just...

We are very new to shrink sleeve distortion. We have a customer building 3D bottles in Solidworks. Solidworks does not appear to have an export to .dae or .zae that Eskos is telling us we need to bring into studio designer to add our printable area to. Does anyone here know what we can do to...

How do i set up my workflows to automatically delete the files that are generated in the DeskPack Container volume when submitting a job through Shuttle? Anybody doing this?

I am using a simple select file ticket linked to a copy ticket in AE14.1 to copy a file to external server once a workflow is started. To be exact, I have a worflow set up to rasterize separations (rip), when I initiate the workflow AE scans the job URL for any pdf file containing the characters...

Our company has an old Thelco Scientific Laboratory Oven that our Q.C. uses for testing shelf life of our glue (for printing coupons), adhesion, U.V. and Waterbase ink life and what it will do on product after sitting out in the stores or wherever the consumer keeps the product.* I am wondering...

We had an operator change the name of a job folder in the finder after they created the job in Pilot. Is there a way to re-link the job in Pilot or do we need to make a whole new job and copy the files over?

I am very new to Pilot and have only had it for a few months. During install, we created a folder named "2014" under the main container with the idea that we would organize jobs by year. So, I made a new folder named "2015" in the same container but it seems by default Piolt goes directly back...

Before I open a call to support I thought I would post here. We have recently upgraded to HD. I am wanting to make plates that have the benefits of micro cell without the "effects" of the hd dot. What I mean is I do not want the scatter/hybrid dot in the highlights of ct images. Is this...

We have an i1 Pro (V1) that we need a new back-up board for. This is the board that an operator would set the i1 on and slide it across a proof to measure color blocks. Ours has gone missing and X-rite doesn't sell them anymore. I did a quick google search and found a few folks selling the whole...

I have a file built in AI CS6. The file was supplied to us with live type. It is common practice for us to convert live type to outlines to avoid any unforeseen type re-flow at the rip. This particular file added a character at the end of a line that wasn't there before the conversion. I have...

We are strictly a label shop. We have dealt with mainly Illustrator and ArtPro files for years. We have taken on a new customer who builds everything in InDesign and Quark. I come from a commercial background so working with the files is not a problem. The problem is trapping. We have been...

At my last job I was just being introduced to VDP when the place was bought and shut down. The guy I was learning from used a combination of AppleScript, BBEdit, Excel and FileMaker Pro to accomplish what needed to be done. It seemed to me he was self taught and just tried to find a way to make...

I am looking for a form that our CSRs can fill out when a change is needed on a job. Recently, there was an email forwarded by a CSR to myself that had a change needed on a job. I made the change and sent it back out. My supervisor was not aware of the change and when the job went to press the...
