Sounds like the pdf process is converting your file from one RGB working space to another.
Look at the settings when you save or convert from x3 to x5 in the color section and make sure it is not converting.
It's my understanding from speaking with a couple of ink vendors that ColorSpan has the locks down pat. None of them have an effective way to get past the "profiler" chips.
I got this as well. Very annoying!
Now i don't use a stroke but a solid fill instead. Works as expected.
But, I've gotten 0.25 inch offset from my UV system with the same version you're running. Onyx seems stumped on the problem. After a couple of call backs all I get is crickets.
I really...
You do indeed need proper CMYK profiles. What you have is suited to profiling desktop printers that use a "driver" instead of a RIP.
Get you $ back and get an EyeOne package that makes CMYK profiles.
I used them to get a couple of heads for my jv3. All went smoothly and according to expectation. Saved several hundred $ at the time compared to anything I could find in the US.
Who makes a color test file with no embedded profile?
A few years ago, I was having BIG color shifts in paneled print jobs. I was going crazy relinearizing and even reprofiling for every other tile. Not much was really keeping things tight. Then I started to track temperature and humidity...
A perfectly valid method. I call it "funneling" incoming jobs to your preferred working space. You obviously have the where with all to easily handle this. A beginner or someone who's feeling overwhelmed by the color stuff is better off with the more common setup.
A very elegant comment, well...
Nothing at all wrong with wider gamut working spaces. Thanks goodness we have them available for us to use. I take full advantage of them when I'm working with my fine art clients.
Thing is, they only really work when you have influence over the design process and can choose to create and...
I was checking out Bly's link and noticed something I've never seen before....
"you can upload in the colorXact online-profilation-tools"
What is profilation? Sounds like something my wife used enjoy but now refuses to do for me.
Restrictions can absolutely be done with a densitometer. The downside is that the density continues to ramp up after the chroma (gamut) tops out. So what you'll get is excess ink use for the same end gamut.
Let's keep things in perspective here...the "excess" ink by doing restrictions via...
I never used the method myself. I prefer to read the chroma directly. Especially since I don't setup proofing systems these days, only straight production for me now.
True, nothing innovative on my part. I learned from others that are much smarter than I.
What chroma? I'd say the biggest you can get with some consideration given to the gray balance of the CMY.
There was one guy I worked with that did ink restrictions by holding a Pantone book to the...
I was getting lots of media feed and alignment errors until i repositioned the right hand cap on the feed side. Seems that loads rolls again and again had moved the cap enough that it was too far over.
The media would still load and align within the stripes decal on the feed side heater. But it...
