HELP!!! My settings are wrong need to send for printing

Hi
I am doing brochure's for my company. I am from South Africa.
I use Illustrator for the brochure, Layout and Text.
Last month the printer had problems with printing the brochure. I discovered my settings are wrong.
This was the settings:
Colour Setting
Settings:     Custom
WorkingSpace
RGB:               sRGB IEC61966-2. 1
CMYK:            U.S. Web Coated (SWOP) v2
Color Management Policies:
RGB:               Off
CMYK:             Preserve Numbers (Ignore Linked Profiles)
Profile Mismatches:  Ask When Opening (ticked)
                               Ask When Pasting ( Not Ticked)
Missing profiles:       Ask When Opening (Ticked)
Then I did research On Adobe Community Help and changed it to the below but its wrong too
Colour Setting
Settings:     Europe Prepress 3
WorkingSpace
RGB:               Adobe RGB (1998)
CMYK:            Coated FOGRA39 (ISO 12647-2:2004)
Color Management Policies:
RGB:               Preserve Embedded Profiles
CMYK:             Preserve Numbers (Ignore Linked Profiles)
Profile Mismatches:  Ask When Opening (ticked)
                               Ask When Pasting (Ticked)
Missing profiles:       Ask When Opening (Ticked)
Can someone help me to set it right according to RSA printers settings, something like a default setting.
Last Month the printer said the below:
- fonts are not embedded.
- black is not on overprint and is 4 colour black
I never had this problem before, so I have no idea what went wrong all of a sudden.
Now when I open my prevoius work on Illustrator or Photoshop, a small window pops up saying work is not according to this settings, etc.
Please help. Im desperate.
I need to start my new brochure tomorrow
Thank you in advance

You should get a preflight checklist from your print vendor.  Here's what I have set in Illustrator...
You should also send the print vendor a press-ready PDF.  Not all of the file problems are limted to color settings.  For instance...
"Last Month the printer said the below:
- fonts are not embedded. "
When you Save As > EPS, select "Include Fonts" in the selection process; and when Save As > Press Quality PDF, select "Embed Fonts" in the Settings dialogs.
"- black is not on overprint and is 4 colour black"
In Preferences > Appearance of Black, select "Accurate Black" in both screen and print; in your file, set appropriate Black elements to Overprint in the Color "Attributes" dialog.
Whenever you are not sure what the printer is talking about, ask them to explain what they mean and help you fix the problems.  If they refuse, ask them where you can get help.  Most good shops will be willing to help you.

    What settings do I need to use for an indoor basketball game?

    Sit as close to the game as you can possibly be.  If you can sit on the ground on the sideline, do that.  If you are closer, you can use a shorter mm lens setting, so you can use a less expensive and/or wider aperture lens.  It can also mean a less-fast shutter to counter camera shake (though subject movement will still be an issue).  It will also mean you can crop the photo less, which improves IQ too.  It may also mean you can avoid the ugly part (the longest part) of a lens like the 70-300mm, and use the sweet spot instead.

    pkg4ibm wrote:

    Not sure what you mean by that: is that URL in an image, or is it actual text?
    If it is in an image, then you need to extract the image, edit it with something like Photoshop, then add it back to the PDF.
    If the URL is actual text, I suggest that you remove the entire URL, then add the corrected link.

  • Are socket needed to send emails?????

    hi guys,
    lets say i need to send an email notification everytime i finish doing a cetain task....do i need to create and use a socket to send these emails????
    thanks in advance for any help...
    lost and blur.
    Below are the codes to send email:
    (So are socket needed???)
    public void execute(String mailto, String mailcc, String mailsub, String mailbody){

    }

    everytime i finish doing a cetain task....do i need
    to create and use a socket to send these emails????Yes, sockets are needed to send emails. However, you don't need to deal with them yourself. You can use the JavaMail API. It will hide those low level details from you and let you deal with concepts that are related to sending emails--addresses, contents, servers, etc.

  • Help with cropping & sorting images prior to export for print

    I have large project (wedding) within which I've sorted images into several folders (pre-wedding, church, family portraits, etc.) within which there are smart albums based on my ratings. I also have a generic "5 Star" album at the top level which contains the final images that have been adjusted and which the client has been provided with in order to choose from.
    I now have a list of print requirements from the client (image name, size, and quantity).
    I'm curious to know what the quickest way to sort and tag the images selected for print, particularly in view of there being a number of different size requests for the images which are to be printed.
    Also - I'd value opinions (based on experience) on whether I should bother cropping to size for images that are 5x7 and 8x10 (the default ratio is 2x3 at the moment).
    The bottom line is that I'm trying to minimise the amount of time I spend on print tagging and cropping prior to export, and post export sorting prior to sending off to the lab.
    Thanks,
    Paul

    To answer your questions:
    I am assuming that you want a new version of the crop size especially if you have an image/s that are required in multiple sizes like 8x10 and 5x7 the image would end up in each crop size album so you would have two versions one for each aspect ratio and doing the new version in the context of the album would make in the album pic so that the proper one will be at the top of the stack in each respective album.
    Orientation does not matter with the stamp it will work fine - if you have an issue let me know.
    with respect to the stamp - the stamp will position the crop relative to the one you lifted - if your lifted crop is in the middle then so will the stamped ones.
    As for adjustment of the crop - just click on the crop tool, the click on the browser image and arrow through the images with the crop tool open - you can drag the crop around for each one with a minimum of keystrokes.
    Try it and hit me back with issues. I do this all the time and it is about 3000x quicker than my old workflow 5 years ago. For that matter the power of albums, stacks, and stack picks for this kind of thing is fabulous, there are a million ways to use it to speed things up. Bonus is that you are not copying anything so it is virtually free from a resource perspective.
    Last but not least I would think twice before using a smart album to do this, youi really do not want the content changing in this type of album, it will not save you any time, I would use static albums in the manner that I suggested.

  • RGB Logo uses Overlay transparency... need in CMYK for print but color changes in overlay

    I am working with a logo someone else created in RGB using the Overlay transparency. When I convert it to CMYK just one area seems to "change color".
    I tried inserting both versions here - but it isn't working too well. Basically, in the image below the outline of the "scales" appears darker in the CMYK version for printing. Any ideas on how I can adjust it to print in the same vibrant color the RGB is showing?

    fill in info RGB is light (like on your screen) and adds more light when mixed, CMYK are pigments and adds more color or multiplies, when mixed

  • K8t neo fis2r- CMOS settings are wrong!

    First I would like to thank all of you for taking the time to help me resolve my problem.  My current system specs are as follows:
    MSI k8t neo fis2r mobo
    AMD athlon 64 3200+ (clawhammer I believe)
    2x 512 MB Corsair Xtreme XMS Memory
    Radeon 9800 Pro 256mb
    80gb Samsung HDD
    600W Xconnect PSU
    After having problems with my computer not loading windows I downgraded my bios from v 2.2 to 1.9 because I heard that versions higher than 1.9 may have problems with my older clawhammer cpu core.  The bios flash worked in that I can now start up my computer if I reset CMOS and load default settings.  However when I load my computer this way my Core Center is displaying my Vcore at around 1.1v.  3.3v is at around 3.41, 5v is at around 5.1, 12v is at around 12.1v.  In the past I needed to manually set my Vcore under bios at 1.4v or 1.5v to get it to start, and when I started it that way Core Center correctly displayed the 1.4 or 1.5vcore and stated that my computer was running at 2000Mhz.  Now my computer is running at 1.1vcore and 800 MHz.  If I clear cmos and enter setup to try to change my vcore to 1.4 my computer will hang after the save and exit just as if I had restart my computer without clearing the CMOS.  I have tried changing the mobo battery, which did not do anything.  Its odd, if I choose to load default settings and continue, my computer will start up and is entirely stable.  If I choose to enter setup however and choose to load default settings and then save and exit, my computer will hang just as if I did not reset CMOS to begin with.
    I really do not know what to do here.  I was thinking about trying something like this http://crystalmark.info/software/CrystalCPUID/index-e.html to up my vcore after I get my computer started so that I can play my games without the low fps I am currently getting.  I know this fix would not get my computer to start up without resetting CMOS, but would it work as a temporary solution?
    Does anyone have any ideas for what is wrong?  Thanks again in advance.

    Thats bad news for me!
    Anyway, I found a program called RightMark CPU clock Utility that has enabled me to get my 2000 MHz out of my cpu by setting FID to 10.0x and VID to 1.550v 
    With these settings Rightmark is reporting an idle cpu temp of around 31 C, but when I get in a game like world of warcraft the temp will go all the way up to around 90 C, which I feel is incorrect.  Ive had my computer become very unstable in the past when the temp got near 65-70C.  It seems to be perfectly stable at the moment, even under the high loads of world of warcraft.  Do you have any thoughts on this?

  • TS2755 My husband and I have iPhone 4S's.  For some reason, my text messages show up on his phone.  We share the Apple ID, and my settings are such that I send and receive from my phone number and email address. How do we correct this?

    My husband and I both have iphone 4S's and for some reason he gets my text conversations w/ other people.  We share the apple ID and I have my settings set to and from my phone # and email address.  He is getting tired of being apart of text messages I am on.  How do we remedy this?

    Each of you need to have your own apple id's instead of sharing is the best way. But you can go to each phones settings, messages, send and recieve, and down to start new conversation from, and make sure each of you have your own email address with a check mark beside of it not the same address.

  • Re: Satellite L10-90 - Time settings are wrong if I start computer the next

    Hi, I have Satellite L10-90 with XP Home. Since about one month the time setting is always wrong. I have synchronized the time and it seems to be corrected. But if I start the computer the next day, the time is wrong again. I have found some information in Google. Some people say that the battery on board is already discharged and need to be replayed with a new one.
    I don't know what could be the reason. If I need a new battery, where is it on this computer and how to change it?
    Help will be appreciated.

    Hi
    I have did the following tests:
    1 Synchronize the time with time.windows.com, the time will be set correctly. The current time will be displayed and the time goes on. Shut down the labtop, wait, turn on the labtop, the time is wrong. The time beginns from the moment at which the labtop shuted down.
    2 Synchronize the time with time.nist.gov, the problem is the same as 1.
    3 I just have normal DSL, don't connet my labtop to a server.
    4 I always use the AC/DC adapter as power supply. Even I shut down the labtop, it is still connected
    It seems that if the labtop is off, the time wil stop.
    Any ideas?
