[bradc]

Hi,

I have a PDF that we are printing to a 700 xerox fuji, when we print it from a MAc, and then from a pc, we are getting colour variance, when we impo the file on the pc, we are getitng the same result as whats comign out of the mac, all % in the pdf are reading the same.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers

Brad

Sounds like a difference in either the printer drivers or the settings being used. What app are you printing out of?

HOW are you printing it form the mac? From the PC?

Are you printing from Adobe Acrobat? Adobe Reader? Some other method? What versions of the software?

What settings in the software are you using? What settings do you have on the printer? Especially concerning color management?

Sounds like color management is gunking things up between ColorSync and WCS/ICS.

I did a couple of tests, running the file throu our rip that has been profiled to the press, and the result is the same that we are getting of the mac.
what the operator ended up doing, was imposing it on the printer, and not from acrobat
