Color conflict when printing text boxes layered with images

Thank you in advance for any insight on this question. I've got a text box grouped with an image in a Pages document. The text box is layered in front of an object and is transparent (no fill color in the text box). The object however, is filled with a color. When printing the document, the image comes out in two shades of blue even though the text box is transparent. Thoughts?

Want to add that if you uncheck the Retain Slide Quality Settings, you'll have to keep the High setting.
Another way to change slide quality is before publishing, and in that case I prefer Optimized to High (which is not possible when overriding the Slide Quality on publishing, there you only have the choice between Low and High).
Still I'm puzzled because the simple TEB normally do not cause that kind of quality issue, have seen it happening with shapes (because they have transparent pixels) and images, but with TEB's? Wondering

  • Is there a way to have a "text box" stay with a table or chart?

    I have multiple tables on one sheet. I understand that the table is named over in the left side of the screen. For what i need to do,  I am looking at multiple tables on one sheet. Its easier to know which is which by having a text box above with its desctription. If I need to move that table I would like for the text box to move with the table it is for, rather than having to move them both seperately. Is there a way to like "merge" them together? I've selected the two together and looked for an option in the inspector & in the menu bar, yet still cant figure it out.
    =/ help!!

    For a table, you can use the Table Inspector to Show Name (checkbox near the top of the Inspector pane).
    As seen above, the Table name can be formatted using a choice of font, size and colour (not changed in the example). To format, click on the displayed name to select its frame/box. Then use the controls in the format bar to chose font, set size and color, and set the background colour if desired.
    I had finally just figured that out before I read this, after quite some time of messing around with it. Thanks for your quick response. Wish i realized these discussions were available when I first started using numbers! How very  helpful!!
    And to fireflyer, thanks for that advice I didnt know you can do that and I will be able to use that in many situations! =)

  • Printer Settings dialog missing when printing to another Mac with Bonjour

    I want Photoshop to manage my color settings rather than my Epson 4800 or Epson SPRX 580 printers, so in the print dialog box I select the "Printer Color Management" tab and set color adjustments to the OFF position. This works fine as long as the printer is connected directly to my MacBook or my MacBook Pro. But if I try to send a job on my MacBook Pro via bonjour to either of the printers when it is connected to my MacBook, the print dialog is missing the choices of "Printer Color Management", "Printer Settings", etc.
    All that is available are things like "Layout, Cover Page, Scheduler, Summary." The "Printer Settings, Color Management" options only show up on either computer when connected directly to the printer.
    Is there a way to get those other choices (Printer Settings, Color Management) when printing over a bonjour network?
    I'm on Mac OS 10.5.6 on the MacBook Pro and Mac OS 10.4.10 on the MacBook. I have downloaded all the driver updates from Epson and deleted and added the printers again with the same result.

    HP must have release a driver update because we no longer encounter the problem.

  • Color shift when printing

    We have a Xerox workcenter 7655 at work and since I upgraded to Snow Leopard I get bad color shifts when printing. It's mostly too much magenta. I converted a cmyk file to a high quality pdf and the color was accurate when printing from a Windows machine but the light blue was badly shifted to lavender from my Mac. I tried different cmyk profiles when creating the pdf and printed the native file out of InDesign with the same results.
    The print I get from the Windows machine has the same colors as what I see on my Mac's monitor. I do mostly web design now and have been out of the print end for some time. Until I moved to Snow Leopard, I didn't have this problem.
    Can I get some ideas on how I can address this?
    thanks

    You answered your own question: CS5.  There have been a slew of reports of workflows spun upside down when upgrading to CS5.  It may require updating your system software and/or Adobe applications, along with any printer driver updates that may be lurking out there somewhere.  The twist to your situation is ( and is very common ) that everything was working before and now it does not.  Or there is a certain print disorder of some sort.  Very troubling.  I wish I had a smoking gun answer for you, but I don't.  It sounds like you have a very viable workflow in place that worked before and damn well should perform for you now.  I'd stick with what works and dump what doesn't ( if you can ).

  • Delay when moving text boxes or graphics?

    I have recently installed CS5 and am having trouble with editing/designing in In Design.  I have a 2-page document, 1 with a lot of text and graphics and the other with just a few text boxes and images.  Moving items using the arrow keys on my keyboard has not been a problem in previous versions of ID, but now there is a significant delay in when I push the arrow key and when the text box or image moves, but only on one of these two pages.  Any idea how to fix this or what is causing this problem?  Am I the only one having this experience?  I've searched online and already tried changing the interface preference to every possible option but that doesn't work.  Someone help me please! 

    First of all, this belongs in the InDesign forum, not here.
    Setting the Live Screen Drawing preference to delayed seems to be helping others with the same problem.
    Please post any followups to the InDesign forum.

  • HP LASERJET CP1525nw print error when printing online Gmail emails with Google Chrome

    HP LASERJET CP1525nw print error when printing online Gmail emails with Google Chrome. Extra large font sizes and weird formatting issues only when printing emails from Gmail within Chrome. No problems when printing the same email from Gmail+Internet Exolorer or Thunderbird. Using the IE Tab extension in Chrome prints the email correctly but the style of Gmail's message window is completely weird ie: formatting bar is spread out vertically instead of horizontally. I believe it is clear that this is an application specific issue between the HP LASERJET CP1525nw printer and Google Chrome + Gmail. This printing scenario does not occur when printing anything else or when printing via another printer. I would appreciate receiving any suggestions to solve this issue.
    OS: Windows 7 Ultimate x64
    Browser: Google Chrome 15
    HP Print driver: HP Universal Print Driver for Windows PCL6 v5.4.0
    Printer is connected by WiFi to 4 computers

    Hi AbZu, 
    You need to contact Google Chromes technical support as this is only an issue with Chrome. You have indicated that the printer functions correctly everywhere else. Check out the link below for Google Chrome technical support. Let me know if you need additional assistance?

  • Problems with color matching when printing...

         Hi, I work for a small family business in the P.O.P. industry.  We currently have myself and one other designer, we both take illustrator files that have come from the graphic design firm that we contract with and get them ready to print on our Vutek QS3200.  However ever since acquiring the printer we have begun to run into problems with the colors when printing.  When the files are exported off of my computer, I use either .tif or .pdf files, they print as they should, the colors seem to match the proof and everything goes smoothly.  However when the other designer exports a file, he tends to do mainly pdfs, the colors tend to be extremely different from where we want them.  Also we will get very strange results, such as yesterday he kept getting a faint yellow 1/2" border around his prints.  After I believe 3+ hours of him trying, I was given the original CD and instructed to try.  After 15-20 minutes of making the changes that we needed to make (adding a new price point) and ripping, mine printed perfectly. 
         We both use Macs, both have CS3 Design standard, only differences between the computers are mine is newer and a bit faster, and I'm running OS 10.5.6 and he has 10.4.  He has also at some point loaded various color profiles, whereas my CS package is just whatever the default is when I loaded it.  When we were being trained he grabbed the color profile off of the Colorburst RIP server and loaded onto his computer, plus I believe he has a couple for freelancing purposes on there as well.  My thought is that these profiles are somehow corrupting the files that are going through that computer, but I honestly am lost with it at the moment.  He believes the problem lies within the fact that he does not have the newer OS, I honestly cannot see that as having any effect on this at all.  I was wondering if anyone has run into any similar problems, or if anyone might have any advice on this issue?  I would really like to be able to solve this, as I was hired to do mainly structural design for the P.O.P. and I'm having to put in a lot of overtime to get my work done along with the additional work that I'm having to do.
    Thanks for your time

    I've got a few years experience calibrating large format printers.  First, the Yellow sounds like a file problem.  I used to work with two workstations, one PC ( RIP station ), and one Mac ( file prep station ).  I tend to agree with you in that the OS is probably not the problem.  But, any Colorburst profiles should remain in the RIP, not in the originator application.  My workflow consisted of creating EPS files that were based on established color settings in their given applications ( i.e., Illustrator, Photoshop ) which were interpreted by the RIP which had it's own calibrated profile ( perhaps more than one based on how many different substrates were being used ).  Your partner may be complicating things by incorporating a RIP profile prematurely.  If there are deviations big enough to be noticed, there has to be something in the application color settings that is causing some type of corruption.  This could lead back to the operating system, but I would think it lies somewhere in Bridge or the application color settings.  Start there.  You should seriously consider implementing a calibration system if you do not have one already.  Another slight possibility is the driver's ability to interpret files coming out of Leopard vs. files coming out of Tiger.  It may benefit you both to be in the same operating system dynamics, using the same driver versions and RIP profiles.  At the very least, match everything that is currently working successfully and put them on both machines.  If there is still a noticeable problem in color matching, then something is seriously wrong and you should call in a prepress profiling expert.  Hope this helps.

  • Color cast when printing from Lightroom with Epson 3880 printer

    Just got an epson 3880 printer. Printing on epson paper is fine. But printing on Ilford or Moab or other papers from lightroom and photoshop have a terrible magenta color cast.
    WHen I print the same image from Preview, with the same print driver settings, it looks fine. So somehow the adobe apps (or my settings) are messing up the color sync.
    I used to have an espon 2400 which worked just fine.
    I have Mac OSX-10.9.1. Monitor is calibrated. (Prints to epson paper with their profiles look great...it's just other profiles that are really bad).
    I need help!

    Are you using moab icc profiles or are you using one of the epson profiles?
    I always use the moab profiles which you can download from their Web site. This way you are matching the specific epson printer with the specific moab paper.
    At that point you change the printer manages color to Lightroom manages color and select the specific profile. Very easy to do - they even have instructions on the Moab site for installing the profiles if you haven't done that.
    Once installed you can also use them through the system print dialogs in PS but it is really much much easier to use in LR - Since coming on board with LR last summer, I have switched to doing ALL printing from LR. Since you mentioned that you are having the same problem with LR and PS, I'm betting you are using epson profiles and this will solve your problem.
    Hope so

  • Color shift when printing with LR 3.6

    LR 3.6, win 7, screen Nec PA 241 W, Epson R 3000. When printing with colors managed by LR and paper/R 3000 profiles, I get prints with a strong color shift (printer pilot "mode" : desactivated) . How can I correct it ?

  • HP Deskjet 5740 Color Inkjet Printer cutting off bottom half of letters when printing text

    My Printer is cutting off the bottom half of letters when printing documents.  I have tried all the troubleshooting options given on the computer and have changed out the ink cartriges as well.  I am hoping SOMEONE might have a solution to share. Thanks in advance!!!

    I have a user experiencing the same issue.  We have removed the drivers and reinstalled them but the problem persists.  Steps we have tried.... Completely uninstalled all the HP software and printer driversRebootedReinstalled drivers and printer softwareI have verified the printer has the latest firmware. It doesn't matter what program we are printing from, approximately the bottom 4th to 3rd of the photo is cut off.  I do have examples I can send that show the problem.   Our organization buys a lot of printers and it would suck to have to start ordering from a different vendor for future buys.  But if HP cannot fix this issue, we'll have to switch to another brand.  Since we cannot attach in here I have uploaded the examples.  The first is an XPS printout from a word 2013 document.  When it's printed it comes out as shown in the scan.pdf file.  (We printed it and then scanned the printout to a PDF).  It is pretty clear that the bottom of the picture is cut off. Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks. Brian  

  • ICC profile conflicts when printing from Aperture?

    I have worked with Aperture now for two years, and I still have problems printing anything that is close enough to what I see on my calibrated screen. And believe me, I have done some reading on color management and ICC profiles. I suspect that Aperture pulls in ICC color profiles in a way that doesn't allow reproducing what I see on the screen. I wonder if these problems are related to the Registered ColorSync devices: opening ColorSync Utility under Devices reveals a bunch of default printers with a diversity of profiles, even if I have no access to these printers (in part these are network printers of my previous employment). I cannot figure out how I can delete these entries: I tried to find remaining printer profiles of these printers in my files, but could not find anything. How can I delete these entries, and can these entries cause color profile conflicts?
    More specificially: I work with Aperture 2.1.3 and view my photos on a calibrated 23" Cinema display, run from a MBP with 2.16 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 10.5.6, and 2GB of memory. My monitor is calibrated with a Spyder for D65 and gamma of 2.2. I print with an Epson 3800 on Epson paper.
    Here is my problem: despite calibrated monitor I don't get the prints to look even remotely close to what I get on my screen. Of course, I use the correct ICC profiles for my papers, and of course I have Aperture (and not the printer) run color management. It seems, however, that my prints resemble my monitor more if I use strange profiles such as "Wide Gamut RGB" or "ProPhoto RGB" as my monitor's profile instead of the calibrated D65, gamma 2.2.
    In detail, here are my regular print settings in Aperture:
    Print Mode: AccuPhoto HD
    Color Mode: Off (No Color Management)
    Output Resolution: SuperPhoto - 1440 dpi
    Advanced Color Settings: Epson Driver Color Management is Off.
    In the Aperture Print menu I use under Printer Selection:
    ColorSync Profile: for example, Pro38 PGPP, when I use Epson Premium Photo Paper Glossy
    Black Point Compensation checked.
    Gamma: 1:00
    Under Layout Options I use Print Resolution: Use Best DPI
    With these settings the prints look significantly colder than what I see on the screen. Of course, a certain amount of the warmth of the screen colors comes from the calibration to D65 and gamma of 2.2, but shouldn't this give me the best correspondence between the calibrated screen and the print (using of course the color management of the application with ICC profiles, not the printer driver color management)?
    I tried the same in CS4 and Lightroom, but no difference. Again, the problem is not that the prints are terrible: they are just not very close to what I see on the calibrated screen.
    Where do I make a mistake? All suggestions are very welcome! This is driving me crazy. Many thanks for your help!
    Best,
    Kai

    While the technical aspects of color management are complex, they are largely irrelevant for users.
    The following steps have worked well for me:
    Step One: Calibrate your monitor. I use the Datacolor Spyder. This produces a monitor profile. Use System Preferences to set your monitor to use this profile. Don't use this profile for anything else and give it a clear name so that you don't confuse it with a printer profile.
    Step Two: Download and install the latest drivers for your printer. Buy a small box of photo paper (gloss, semi-gloss) from the manufacturer of your printer. Make sure that you have the correct ICC profiles for this paper and printer. You are trying to establish a baseline.
    Step Three: Pick an image with a reasonable range of colors and exposures. (Don't start with a "difficult" image.) Turn soft proofing off and adjust the image as desired.
    Step Four: Send this image to the printer. Load up the manufacturer's paper.
    Step Five: In the "print" dialog, go to the "Printer Settings" sub menu and select the correct "Quality and Media" and the appropriate setting for "photo" quality. Make sure that all of the color options are neutral. Save.
    Step Six: Back on the "Print" dialog select the correct ICC profile for your paper/printer. (Careful, DON'T use the calibrated monitor profile!) Adjust other settings as required. Save and name the preset.
    Step Seven: Print and Pray. (And pray I haven't missed a step - sorry I'm not at my Mac. From your initial post, it sounds like you know how to do all of this.)
    The results should be reasonably close. (That is why you should use the printer manufacturer's own paper and profiles as a starting point.)
    If you are happy, great - get a beer. If not, try the following, making only one change at a time:
    == Turn Soft Proofing on using the profile of the paper/printer. (Don't select the profile for your monitor, or any other.) Do the screen and print match now? If so, then you know to do your adjusting with soft proofing on. Remember, soft proofing is not exact - it is merely an attempt to make your screen look like the combination of paper and printer.
    == If Soft Proofing makes your monitor look LESS like the print, then don't don't use Soft Proofing.
    == If the results are close, you can make fine adjustments using the "Printer Settings" sub menu and saving presents. For example; I use a lot of CostCo paper in my Canon Pixma Pro9000. CostCo says that their paper mimics Canon's Photo Paper Pro, so I use the settings and profile for that paper, but I tweek the cyans and reds a bit in printer settings.
    I have found that Red River profiles are a very good match for their papers.
    Hope this helps. Good luck!
