Nope, nothing is set to overprint

That would make sense but just checked and there is only one layer.

A few small elements are compound paths but other than that everything shows as a path. I turned on outline view to make check that nothing else was hidden. It's just so odd.

Currently the file contains all vector and no raster images. Would this still be the problem? Unfortunately, we can't change the color as we've printed everything else and it we are referencing a Pantone color.

We are printing window graphics and everything has gone smoothly except for one. The blue background comes out much darker. This blue has been printing perfectly in all other panels. The color mode of the file is correct and we've used the same exact swatches. I've tried saving it in .eps and...

Any progress with this issue? The same has been happening for us except it doesn't always show that it's still printing. We're using Windows 10 Pro for our RIP computer. This has been happening more lately. I'm not sure if the weather may have a slight impact as its been much colder in the...

Thank you! This worked :)

netsol Thanks for the advice. I tried to look into production manager but there is nothing queued. I think because it is already in the Versaworks Queue it's been processed. I actually tried to click the files and wait overnight for it to process but it is still loading. Oof!

I mistakenly added a full scaled file to Versaworks. The size was 15" x 624" in PDF format. I dragged it in and it took forever to load so I canceled and tried again but the same thing happened. I realized I needed to scale the file down so I revised it and went to re-load it. However, I then...

JBurton Thanks! :)

Does anyone happen to know where I can find a print file that lists all of the Color Bridge Pantone swatches?

Wonderful idea. We do have this booklet already so I'll print some charts of our own out soon. I'm curious to see how many are a close match.

I'm the Graphic Designer and I handle the pre-press setup. I have about 7 years experience with most of it being pure design. Eventually, I gained some production and management experience due to employers being short staffed and needing roles fulfilled. Hence my lack of knowledge in some areas.

We do have a CMYK color chart for a majority of common combinations. A Pantone chart is a great suggestion as Bob mentioned. I will definitely look into doing that. Appreciate the advice!

Apologies! I meant to type "Of course" as in I do not mind telling you. As I said, "If our rip software doesn't re-create the Pantone color as accurately as we'd like, we adjust it in CMYK values and then note that in an excel sheet." Unfortunately, not all printers are as accurate as we'd like...
