    Oh and by the way, the government now owns the company. So you have no worries. You'll always be getting paid by the government.

    Matching proof to customer supplied proof

    Asking the consultant those questions I proposed is a nice way to have him come up with the reason for his client. I think we know the problem but it would be "nice" to have the consultant submit the answer.

    Matching proof to customer supplied proof

    I would think that you are bypassing your press simulation and printing the full gamut of the Epson printer. Ask their consultant what specs his output simulates and how he verifies it.

    Anyone use Production House and having these issues?

    Glad to have helped. We're on 11.2, I think. Onyx made a lot of changes from 10 to 11.

    diffrence between black color in photoshop and acrobat pro

    Uncheck "Embed Color Profile" in the first Save dialog box. In the secondary dialog box make sure the "output" tab shows, "no conversion" and "don't attach profile".

    Anyone use Production House and having these issues?

    Go to Page Tools on the left side where you select files....at the top click "Page Tools" then "settings" that is where the option for image name or default job number is. In the settings area there is a "soft proof" button. This may help with your preview but not sure. I don't use this app from...

    Anyone use Production House and having these issues?

    To get rid of the second Layout Preview screen(if you want to that is.) Go to Media Manager...click Media Library...right click media to "edit media". Click to second page and that's where you'll find the "Media Options" button as described above. Looks like your preferences file got corrupt...

    Neat color vision test

    This was posted a bit ago but I wanted to thank the poster. We've actually incorporated this into our sales teams practices when searching out new accounts. Here how it works. We let the potential customer play the game, evaluate the score, and let that determine how we are to proceed with that...

    Anyone use Production House and having these issues?

    I think you're confusing Layout TOOL with Layout PREVIEW? Layout Preview is a function/window that comes up after you hit PRINT in Rip-Que, and just before you send to the printer. It allows you to set offsets but not much else. We turn it off. If you don't want to have Layout Preview to come...

    Printing on wood doors

    Don't get me wrong. I'm very familiar with R&D projects. If those wood doors from HD were an order, without any product development, I'd be worried and wouldn't guarantee anything. If they were for a fun little project, great. Did they need any durability or scratch resistance requirements? Were...

    Printing on wood doors

    This sounds just like our place. "We have an order for doing xxxx." Now we have to figure out how to do it! How was it sold? What are the expectations of the product? Our sales staff specializes in selling things we DON'T do. Glad to see I'm not alone. Hopefully you are starting with a flat...

    Can it be done a lot simpler? What do you think?

    I have no idea what the output file is but Wasatch offers SP, which, from what I understand, is used to do separations printed on inkjet "Film". The RIP could also do your proofing. I would think these would both work from a common PDF. Haven't used Wasatch in a while and have never used the...

    Gigantasmic leak in my HPZ32200.. help?

    I don't have this exact printer either but it looks like your park station has had a lot of use. Where heads purge during nozzle cleaning. It'll get pretty built up after LOTS of prints and head cleaning. I think you're doing the right thing, and saving some money, by cleaning it yourself. If...

    GRACoL color conversion formula

    Your files don't convert directly to Gracol. There may be some "usuals" but it doesn't work that way. The first "it" in your question refers to Gracol profile. The second "it" refers to your CMM or engine that does the calculations. When conversion occurs, your embedded profile is converted...

    Converting to Destination in ID

    "InDesign does what it's told to do." Right on Magnus! Since I don't post much, and have recently felt this pain, I want to take a shot at this! First, I think we all understand that converting to different printing conditions allows us to repurpose an image without changing its appearance. If...

    Converting to Destination in ID

    If CMYK images were color managed within InDesign, they wouldn't get converted to your output color space.

    GRACoL final PDFs differences

    It looks like you're putting a SWOP link into InDesign and wanting InDesign to convert the link to GraCol? You either have to color manage the link to GraCol in PS, then link...or have InDesign do it by color managing the link under the "Object" menu...Image Color Settings. Select SWOP(or...

    SWOP to GRACoL Conversion

    Seems your issue is with spot colors? Do you have Onyx using it's color tables instead of color management? Another solution, since this is large format printing, is to convert spot colors to CMYK in the "ink management" option in the output tab of PDF dialog box. "Converting" to your Onyx...
