Prepress Software :: RE: Indesign: Any way for crop marks to print only black?
Hmm, I feel your pain, had same issue on my HP Indigo Clicks. Only solution we found was to go ahead to pdf, use PitStop to convert the black only page, then go. There are so many docs that are SUPPOSED to black only but contain RGB black, thus will go 4cp. It's because of that why i decided to simplyt use Pitstop and check/convert every black page to be sure it's all done. If crops are in the PDF, bam, they are now black only too.

Over on Adobe's forums there is a pretty long thread about this issue: http://www.adobeforums.com/webx/.59b57c28 It looks likes some people posted a script or two but there might be bugs in them.

As a last-ditch resort, if you have no qualms about converting text to outlines, etc., take the file with conversions done and open in Illustrator, re-save as Illus .eps, and placed in InDesign to output or distill directly. If it still acts odd, down-save the Illus .eps to Postscript Level 2, and repeat. I have had Nexus and Rampage both error until I used Illus on .eps files and either placed-printed/exported, or directly RIPed the simplified file.

We get a lot of files which occasionally have small areas of 4 color black type and we generally have to either 1) call the customer up and request a new PDF (time-consuming) 2) mask out the 4 colour black text in inDesign and overlay a greyscale version of just the affected area (EXTREMELY time consuming) 3) or most often we just run as-is which looks like dung and sometimes leads to complaints so is there a tool out there that can resolve these problem areas? any quick and dirty work-arounds? - Read More at This Link..

Hi Jamina, I know this is a bit late but, If you create a pdf preset (job options) for indesign you can export to any version of pdf you like. Eliminate the postcript stage and go direct from Indesign. Postscript tends to flatten transparency , going direct to pdf 1.4 and up will preserve it. Cheers, Tom - Read More at This Link..

We impose hundreds of PDF files everyday in Indesign CS3. When finished we export the whole page as a PDF which goes to our RIP. During the exporting process some images simply jump out of their bounding boxes and ruin the job. I've contacted Adobe about this and they acknowledge there is a bug, does anybody know of a way we can stop this happening by changing say a PDF setting. Imposing in CS2 or Preps or Metrix fixes the issue but presently we are stuck with CS3 because it works with our own autoplater plater program. - Read More at This Link..

It might be the fonts that are installed on your machine. Try this. 1) change the fonts that you are having problem with to say Arial or Times. Just as a test, don't worry about re-flow on the page, just print. If the fonts are ok then you need to install the fonts onto the printer somehow. I use a Creo rip and is easy, not sure on your equipment. Try this next 2) select all your text boxes in your doument, go to TYPE>>>Create Outlines. Print now. If the fonts look good, then yes the fonts taht you are using need to be installed on your machine. Hope this helps - Read More at This Link..

I am looking for a script to merge two PDFs in InDesign CS3 (Mac or PC); with an interesting twist for print production. We have one PDF that is 408 pages. The second PDF is only one page. What we need to accomplish is importing the 408-page PDF file into InDesign, then inserting the second 1-page 408 times PDF AFTER every page of the first file. This will make a 816-page file, where every other page is the "generic" PDF. I've used PDFplacer.jsx and it does a great job of bringing in a PDF to InDesign.

Prepress Guru, This is my method to copy & patse from Ai to Id. With Text object : in Ai, use text tool to mark all needed text and copy (Ctrl+C) and switch to Id and then use text tool, click (or drag text area), paste it. The text now is text and I can re format it. If I use pick tool in Ai, the text converted to graphic when paste in Id, but it can change color in Id.

C=0 M=0 Y=0 K=100 Any kind of "rich black" will print grey as the IGEN lays down black toner first. Everything else gets laid down on top cyan- yellow-magenta - and will make the black lighter and muddy. We have also had good success creating R=0, G=0, B=0 photoshop files and used those as background images - and that has again created a great black. Considering the IGEN "optimizes" any CMYK value you give it, I believe that even c0m0y0k100 might change once on the press.

Prepress Software :: RE: SPOT-CMYK conversion models
I agree that the color should be converted at the earliest point. But just to see the other side is If all your Indesign stations don't use the same color settings then the spot could be different depending on the color settings. Now Idealy all your work stations will be set the same and stay that way but as we all have seen the settings will get changes and no one will know who or why they were changed. So if the colors are changed at the rip it doesn't depend on each work station being the same. - Read More at This Link..

Hi all, I work as a designer at a toy company on a PC. I have an old version of Marzware Flight check, v5.5, & have downloaded the update for v.5.8. Now that I have installed CS3, it no longer works. Do you have any suggestions on a different preflight program? We do not have InDesign otherwise I would be using Preflight in that program. Will FreeFlight work for me? Any suggestions you could supply me will help! Thanks. _ Kind regards, toast2town - Read More at This Link..

Prepress Software :: RE: SPOT-CMYK conversion models
Prepress Software :: RE: SPOT-CMYK conversion models
I agree that the color should be converted at the earliest point. But just to see the other side is If all your Indesign stations don't use the same color settings then the spot could be different depending on the color settings. Now Idealy all your work stations will be set the same and stay that way but as we all have seen the settings will get changes and no one will know who or why they were changed. So if the colors are changed at the rip it doesn't depend on each work station being the same. - Read More at This Link..

Prepress Software :: SPOT-CMYK conversion models
Prepress Software :: SPOT-CMYK conversion models
We're having an issue with color conversions with spot colors. Where I work, we use Prinergy 3. We also do a lot of work in InDesign. When I need to send work that is going to be CMYK and we get it as spot, I change the color in the Ink Manager to CMYK and then send it to the RIP. Our day shift people send the jobs to Prinergy as spot, then do a 2nd refine to convert to CMYK & trap. We're getting color shifts. The dayshift says that I'm doing it wrong, but surprisingly, some of the jobs that have printed, the clients prefer the color of the jobs that I've worked on! Regardless, I'... - Read More at This Link..

Graphic Design Forum :: Safe layout transport from Indesign to Illustrator??
OK, here goes.. I work on a G5 PowerPC Mac with adobe CS3. I do preflighting for P.O.P. graphics, such as floor displays and hanging signs etc. The files I prepare are sent directly to prepress at our vendors for making plates for press or digital printing. So, here at my job, we prefer to work in AI, as we rarely if ever need multi page layouts, and we must work extensively with vector die lines (complex shapes, i.e.not rectangles) to make sure the art is in register.

Thank you Monster of Beers! Yeah, I guess I had a sinking feeling from the get-go that it just wasn't worth it. Placing live vector lines in ID does work nicely. And the risk of changes DOES seem too great to hassle with trying to convert all ID files to Illy. I need to break out of my comfort zone, and get better with ID. It just seems annoying that there is not more stable program transfer among adobes. If ID had certain AI capabilities I suppose i wouldn't b*tch so much.

Hi, I am hoping someone may be able to help. I am wanting to set up several PDF templates that will range from A4 -SRA3. these PDF templates will be Proof Approval Templates. I then want to be able to send artwork to print from say InDesign but I want it to print into the PDF template. Hope that makes sense. I would then end up with say a compliment slip artwork centred onto the Proof template enabling me to send out the proof. How do I go about this or is it not something that can easily be done?
