    This is what microsoft was so scared of back in the 90s during the browser wars that eventually led to the antitrust suit against microsoft. 75 percent of the people out there will be happy to use google docs, gmail and watch youtube. Arm processors would be the way to go for this. They have no...

    Do you use colorburst with your vuteks or have you moved to something else? ColorBurst has a nice spot color replacement feature. When it sees the spot color defined in your file, it will replace it with the correct mix for printer and media based on your profile. This works well as long as you...
  4. Epson GS6000 Discontinued???

    Randya, Do you know the print speed for 540x720 6P Bi-D on this machine?
  5. x-rite

    Sorry, I think we misunderstood each other. Without the UV Cut spectrophotometer, chroma based linearizations used to give you a yellow tint. Until I purchased the I1 UV, I was forced to do density based linearizations in ColorBurst.

    DTP41 will work like a charm for this since it is designed for strip reading. When using an eye-one and a ruler however, I found the low res option to be indispensable. Are you sure about compensation for optical brighteners? The profiling guide for version 9 of the queued version still...

    Lots of experience with colorburst and the 5300s here but I never used I1 Basic. I have always had ProfileMaker Publish. Measure tool in publish has a feature that is critical for the 5300s if you plan to do strip reading. There is a a checkbox called "Low Test Chart Resolution" which I found to...

  9. double-sided banner length is wrong

    Are you sure its short or did the front side stretch? At any rate, short of measuring the front and adjusting the back, I usually build 2 files a front with no bleed for trimming and a back with bleed. Just be sure to add white to the front where the bleed is in back so the files have the same...
  10. Banner w/ no photo glare?

    I used to do a lot of banners for a kids television show. They loved a 90/10 weave mesh for large banners or synthetic canvas for things that would appear close up.
  11. AGFA buys Gandi

    From what I hear, HP actually improved on the colorspan line and they are continuing to upgrade some of the Nur products like the FB6100. Agfa on the other hand seems to rebrand more hardware for digital printing than they develop. The Anapurna M series is the rebranded dilli neo titan IRRC. The...
  12. AGFA buys Gandi

    I imagine Agfa will get whatever use they can out of the UV flatbeds from Gandi but not really develop them any further. Support for solvent will be gone much sooner. This is just my opinion of course.
  13. read 100 posts; still, illustrator cut line prob

    I'm glad you got this to work Salmoneye. To clarify my earlier and vague post. You should use the direct select tool to select the points on the path that touch and then use the join command. Join only works with two endpoints selected.

    Be sure the points on your graph are joined. Object > Path > Join or command/control J Then you can outline the path
  15. I need advice

    Wow, i thought I was going to be the 2cnd post. Guess I took too long. As above, set your rendering intents to relative colormetric, turn off spot color replacement if active and use Adobe RGB for color.
  16. I need advice

    If you are not color managed, your only option is trial and error. With good color management, You should be able to hit any spot color that is within the gamut of your printer. The trick is to rid yourself and your clients of the old "CMYK is the correct color for print" mentality. Files...
  17. Auto numbering in Illy?

    I do not know of a way to do this in Illustrator. Do you have InDesign? You could create a csv file of the numbers you need, perform a data merge, and save the file out as a PDF.
  18. large scanner

    If you do not need to go wider than 36 or need color you may be able to get away with a architectural scan. These are typically done on either Kip or OCE equipment. These produce 1Bit B&W scans and the pricing is dirt cheap. Otherwise you will have to step up to the color scan. Look for a...
  19. 3M IJ35 Fell off the wall

    These are very short term graphics (6 month max) and they change out regularly. This is approximately my 6th install for this client with this product.
  20. 3M IJ35 Fell off the wall

    We recently installed a graphic digitally printed on 3M IJ35-20. 3 Days later, the client called and said the graphic fell off the wall. I called my dealer who in turn spoke to a 3M representative. Apparently, there have been a few other complaints and 3M is currently researching this. Keep...
