Stephen, thanks a lot for your help. Yes, this is the same file as sent to the printer for testing purposes. I will notify the printer about Altona and Ghent files - I will visit him in next few days. Dgraves - thanks for the tip. I know the text behind transparent image can cause problems. But...

Stephen Marsh, sorry I didn't see your post before. Thanks a lot for doing this test and your suggestions which I will forward to my printer. It seems I got another confirmation that there is nothing wrong with my PDF. BarbWPP regarding CMYK colors - it's 100% CMYK - preflight confirmed and...

I double checked that there is no trace of spot colors in whole PDF. I even have in my preflight profile checked not to allow spot colors. Also the overprint attribute is not selected anywhere. This seems to be only related to text vs. line art so your explanation makes perfect sense! Thanks...

pacart thanks for the info. Printer said he used "Simulate Overprint" option, but that it didn't help in this case. BarbWPP, but the text that is just text is not printed correctly, the text that is rasterized OR outlined is OK, just regular text. But it's a good tip to always keep the text in...

Hi WishIWasScotty, if you read my first post you will see that I basically did save as PDF/X3, so transparency was flattened. I did choose "High Quality Print" profile, but then before exporting I selected PDF/X3 which means that it was exported as PDF/X3. Well in the end I sent the printer PDF...

Yeah Stephen, that would work too, but I too hate such solutions while the real problem is still there. Thanks. Igor

Wow, thanks Eric. I will let the printer know about this. Best regards, Igor

Hi Eric, yes, your suggestion seems to be very possible. But I couldn't find any information if his machine CANON IMAGEPRESS C6010 uses this kind of technology. I did ask him if we can meet for troubleshooting session to try out all combinations of settings to see if anything helps, I will ask...

He said PDF/X3 is OK, so I did what he said. He basically has no real requirements as his machine is pretty much new and should chew through anything. The problem is that he claims I am the only customer of his with such problems. Thanks for your help and insight Colorblind! Igor

Thanks a lot Colorblind! Yes this PDF is built exactly the same as the original one (100 pages catalog). Basically first entry is copied from that catalog. I sent this PDF to the printer for testing and he said the problem was the same. The other thing is that this same thing was printed on...

Hi CHM. Yes sure. Attached is the PDF I sent to printer to troubleshoot the problem. Of course he only replied that there is a problem with my export settings, but he had no idea what it could be. I hope PDF will give you some clues. Only one text on this page printed properly - third one from...

Hi gordo, thanks for your reply. But that doesn't seem to be the problem in my case. I am talking about title with 61pt size and shapes as thick as the outline of that text - so basically similar shapes but in print colors came out very different . One other thing - in one place the text was...

Hi all, this is my first post here. This seems like a really great community and I hope someone would be able to help me with my problem. I got prints from local digital print shop with colored text too dark by orders of magnitude. The weird thing is that line art (shapes) with exactly the same...
