Correct settings for SWOP proof

Hi,
I need to export a pdf of an ad created in InDesign and have a "SWOP-certified  color proof "
printed. A vendor told me I can just export the pdf as "High quality print." Another vendor tells me
I need to export the pdf with the correct SWOP settings. I'm guessing he's right?
I attached images of my current settings. Am I doing this right?
Thanks so much!

the correct format depends on the format your camera (PAL or NTSC - 4:3 or 16:9) meaning the project format should meet the camera format. pleas note that that format changes in iMovie/iDVD are effective only for new projects and cannot change existing ones. the dvd quality settings depend on the length of your movie and can be set in iDVD under preferences.
my movies are never longer than 30 min. so i set it to faster encoding and check background encoding ... i also tried with best quality once but frankly i can't see the difference

  • Correct settings for HDV capture

    Hi. I'm using Premiere CS5.5. I went on a few forums to get the correct settings for HDV capture.
    I can record the footage fine. However I saw a few things which didn't seem right.
    After capturing the HDV footage, the file was a .mpeg file. Secondly, the clip was 1 hour and 10 minutes and
    it was only 11.3 GB. Does this sound right? A 55 minute .avi file is 11.6GB. I thought a HDV clip would be quite a large size file.
    If this dosen't sound right, is there somewhere I could go to, to check that my settings are correct? By the way I'm filming and capturing with a Canon XHA1.
    The footage is 1080i. HDV. I've exported it and it looks fine. Just want to make sure I've captured it correctly and to the best quality.
    Thanks for your help.

    The HDV format was advanced by Sony and others to use the same miniDV tapes used for SD.  In fact, your Canon XHAI can record and play either without changing the tape transport speed.
    Your observation in relative file sizes is due to the fact that HDV is highly compressed (MPEG), whereas, SD (AVI) is not as highly compressed.  This is one of the reasons folks (such as Harm) don't consider HDV to be an edit format, but just a delivery format.
    Note that what Harm was saying is symantics--you capture an analog source through a capture card that digitizes it.  When you transfer a image file from HDV or SD, it is already digitized, so a bit-to-bit transfer occurs.

  • What are the correct settings for the Canon 5D mark II in FCP 7 ?

    I am shooting full HD at 23s97 fps.. tried making a preset for the Canon but when I import fils FCP always wants to change to appropriate settings for this file type but doesn't tell me what that is...
    (latest firmware installed)
    Please, can someone provide all the correct settings for me?
    And also, why doesn't the camera show up on the desktop/in the menus when attached to the mac? I have ro use EOS utility every time I want to get anything off of the camera... and FCP doesn't see it either. That's just not right - FCP MUST recognise my camera!! : (
    Please help - I don't want to start editing until I have the right settings for this footage.
    Thanks
    Jim

    Welcome to the Boards
    Not sure what you mean with the following, looks like a word dropped?
    I have ro use EOS utility every time I want to get anything off of the camera...
    Anyway, some more specs on your system could help point where the issue is. With the new Plug-In by Canon you can Log & Transfer from the Flash Card (not sure how you connected the camera.) Alternatively you could just drag the files in (but make sure to keep all files such as THM in case you use Log and Transfer later.)
    Generally it is best to transcode to Pro Res to be able to work with the files in Final Cut. (Log & Transfer should do that, or using Compressor/Mpeg Streamclip.)
    It (Final Cut) is probably changing the timeline to match the codec, or depending on your last preset used, just switching things around. In other words if you were editing in DV and had a set up for that, new sequences would default to that and if you try to ad anything else you will get the message.
    Take a look at the search over there -> to look for the Canon 5D threads for some more info.
    What I would do is just pull one of the clips in to start and look at what the sequence settings are aftr Final Cut changes them for you - they should be fine generally, though you will want to change Codecs to Pro Res.
    I like just batch conversion of all my clips from the 5D Markk II and then work from there. (I do not hook up the camera to the computer, just use a card reader.)

  • Which are the correct settings for gmail in MacBookPro

    I want to use mac mail to access my gmail. Can I  ? instead of going directly to web to access my gmail.? Which are the correct settings for the incoming and outgoing servers ?

    Hi,
    Yes. You can absolutely access your Gmail account from within either Mail or Microsoft Outlook for Mac. Make sure, that you have enabled POP/IMAP in your Gmail settings, then follow the instructions here: http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=180188 if you wish to access your account via POP3 instead of IMAP, change the incoming mail server to pop.gmail.com

  • HT1277 i have all the correct settings for my e mail but i can't send for some reason it keeps taking my outgoing server offline

    i have all the correct settings for my e mail but i can't send for some reason it keeps taking my outgoing server offline can anyone help

    If you can receive mail and your connection to your ISP is otherwise working, but cannot send mail, then your SMTP settings are incorrect; the SMTP server port is wrong, your SSL setting is wrong, or the username or password credentials don't match what the ISP has, or your attempted accesses are being blocked or your ISP SMTP server is offline.
    And in general, don't use port 25 for your outbound mail, unless your ISP specifically requires that; these days, that port is best left to communications between mail servers and (usually) not used by any mail clients.

  • SAP on Ubuntu Correct settings for etc/hosts?

    Hi,
    I installed the SAP test drive version on Ubuntu (VirtualBox). After starting the SAP GUI (
    /home/minisap/SAPClients/SAPGUI7.20rev5/bin/guistart /H/ubuntu64/S/3242
    ) I get the following error:
    Error: partner 'ubuntu64:3242' not reached

    I guess that the settings of the file etc/hosts are not correct. After the installation of ubuntu the file contains
    10.0.2.15    ubuntu64    # Added by NetworkManager

    ff02::1 ip6-allnodes
    ff02::2 ip6-allrouters
    ff02::3 ip6-allhosts
    According to the test drive readme file I have to ensure that etc/hosts contain at least the following lines:
    127.0.0.1      localhost      
    n.n.n.n      <HOSTNAME>.<DOMAINNAME>      <HOSTNAME>
    n.n.n.n      nplhost      
    where "n.n.n.n" is a valid IP-adress.
    I tried different settings but the above mentioned error still occurs... Does anyone know the correct settings of etc/hosts or know what the problem could be?
    Thanks and regards

    OK, I logged on as user nnpladm and typed

  • Anyone have the correct settings for iCloud in Outlook 2011 with OS X 10.7.2 ?

    Just an FYI Julian, Unfortunately in that document MicroSoft have given the Mobile Me server addresses so it doesn't work with iCloud.
    If you substitute iCloud server addresses (imap.mail.me.com etc) these instructions work.

  • Correct settings for your phone

    During the last week I have spent many hours trying various settings.  I then found a site where you pay £1 and they send the settings to you.  It worked very well.  I just had to fill in online the details of my phone, its service provider and if it was on a contract or PAYG.  No doubt there are several companies who do this.  I used "configuremyphone.com"  They send the settings on a text to your phone and give you a pin number to use which then moves the settings in the text to the correct locations in your phone.

    It probably reset the access point for the browser.
    First make sure that the access points are ordered correctly in your internet destinations and also check that "Internet" is the default destination.
    Then, from within the browser, check the settings and make sure that it uses "default" as its access point. It will then attempt to connect via the WLAN and, if it's not available, go for the packet data service.

  • Correct settings for using varDisplayTopic Title and varTopicTitle

    Say I have a module 20 screens long (CP4 by the way) with four topics. The template I'm using was set up by someone else, but had the $$varDisplayTopicTitle$$ and the $$varTopicTitle$$  already defined.
    Titles are assigned TopicTitle01 through TopicTitle04 in the Project>Actions, along with varDispalyTopicTitle.
    Correct me if I'm wrong, but the first page of my first topic shold be set to:
    Label: Topic01 Page01
    On slide enter: Assign
    Assign: varTopicTitle01
    with: Understanding Our Products
    For the pages following topic 01, what should my settings should be?  Do I need to label every page (e.g., Topic 01 Page 02, Topic 01 Page 03) after the first Topic page?  Do I use Execute Advanced Action and Set Topic Title for the pages to follow.    Or do I use the Assign again?
    Much thanks in advance!
    JT

    Hello,
    OK, now it is very clear, thanks to the screenshots.
    From your first screenshot, I deduct that you already created the 3 extra user variables you do need: varTopicTitle11, varTopicTitle12 and varTopicTitle13. And I think you gave them as values the complete title of each topic.
    How do I wish that Captivate 5 were already there, this kind of actions is so much easier to create there (I'm not an Adobe employee, be sure, just happy to have been a tester for this new version).
    Will try to explain step by step: you'll have to add 3 more conditions to your already long action SetTopicTitle. They are quite similar to all the (10) others, so for Topic11 it will be:
    Check if     cpInfoCurrentSlideLabel contains Topic11
      Begin
      varDisplayTopicTitle = varTopicTitle11
      End
    Nothing is needed as Else statement.
    Do not know if you ever wrote such an action? The interface is a bit 'clumsy' (explains my sigh about CP5). After choosing the action, scroll to the end after the last statement:
    select 'Add statement'
    use the space bar to open the dropdown-list, for the first action, choose Condition
    after 'Check if' select 'Select variable', use the space bar to open the dropdown-list, choose varDisplayTopicTitle
    select 'is equal to', use the space bar to open the dropdown-list, choose contains
    double-click (or space bar) to choose variable out of choice between variable and value
    open the dropdown list with variables (space bar) and choose varTopicTitle11
    You can leave the rest as it is. Repeat the same steps for the two other Topics.
    Since you are using the same advanced action on each start of Topic, there you'll have nothing to change.
    Hope this helps?

  • Final cut won't export the correct settings for MXF videos

    I have final cut 10.2 and compressor 4.2. My video footage is DSLR media shot at 1920x1080 at 29.97 in Mpeg format. I create an NTSC timeline that is 29.97 and 1080P and I can import and edit with this no problem. My issue is i want to export as 1080i29.97 XDCAM HD 422 50 Mbps in MXF format.(their is a preset for this in compressor) What i get is an mxf file that is 720x576 at 25 FPS and the picture is squished.  I added the destination through Final cut to compressor and selected the preset i want. I also checked the preset and the settings are correct. You can see from the picture below.
    However when i select this destination from Finalcut 10 it shows in the settings that it is 1080i and also 720x576 on the same page! You can see from the image below that the title of the destination is "1080i29.97 XDCAM HD 422 50 Mbps" and below that it says 1080i, 8ch 24bit mono tracks. But at the bottom of this menu it says 720 x 576 | 25 fps!
    if i export as a master file this does not happen, even if i choose XD CamEX 50Mbps. Any help is appreciated. Not sure what is going on. Thanks

  • Correct settings for flv video

    I have a bunch of videos, which I exported from Premiere pro CS5.5 to mp4 files. After this I used the Media Encoder to encode those videos to flv-files. The I opened Flash pro CS5.5 > import video > publish as swf and html. Same settings in the Encoder and Flash but still only half of them work. Those sites / videos that don't work just load and load, but nothing happens. Only option I have so is to encode them again from mp4 to flv using different settings to find ones that work. Sometimes bitrate encoding should be CBR, but sometimes it's VBR. For some videos I should encode alpha channel and for others there is no need. This is so frustrating. I'm using a whole day with this trial & error thing. It's hard for me to believe, that encoding settings should have such effect on the outcome. Could someone please help me with this one?
    Example of an non-working site http://ok-opintokeskus.fi/tapahtumavideo2/jalkitoimet/jalkitoimet.html
    and a working one http://ok-opintokeskus.fi/tapahtumavideo2/toteuttajatyhteistk/toteuttajat_yhteistk.html

    Graficozzo
    If you have 1920 x 1080 60i that 60i is not 60 frames per second but rather 60 fields per second. Consider that the same as 29.97/30 interlaced frames per second.
    So, you want the Premiere Elements 11 project preset to be
    NTSC
    AVCHD
    AVCHD HD 1080i30
    but if you have 5.1 channel audio with your video instead of stereo, then you want to use the project preset
    NTSC
    AVCHD
    AVCHD HD 1080i30 5.1 channel
    When you drag your video for the first time to the Expert view Timeline, the project should set this project preset for you based on those video properties. You can check what it has set by looking at Edit Menu/Project Settings/General and the reading for Editing Mode, Timebase, and Frame Size. If it does not set the correct project preset, you can do that manually with File Menu/New/Project before you import you video into the project.
    Please review the above. If you have any questions or need clarification on anything that I have written please do not hesitate to ask.
    Thank you.

  • Correct settings for wireless broadband service

    Ok, I’m about to lose my mind over trying to get my wireless broadband connection working correctly.
    I had the wireless broadband antenna installed on my garage. I mounted AEBS in my garage and connected it to the cable from the wireless broadband antenna. I can access the internet with no problems, but I have questions about the proper settings. (I’m having printing issues that I didn’t have with my phone line connected to the AEBS and I just want to start from scratch and try to understand how this should all be connected.)
    Here are my questions:
    1)     What settings should I be using on the AEBS for wireless broadband and which port on the AEBS should be used?
    2)     Why is it that when I look at the status indicators in the Network settings control panel, it only will show yellow and never green?
    3)     I have a second AEBS in the house, what is the best method to connect that one to the one in the garage?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated. After I make sure this equipment is working OK, then I’ll tackle the printing issue.

    Thanks for the response…
    1)     I had to turn off DHCP on the AEBS in order for it to work. They supply an IP address. (If you can’t tell, I don’t know a lot about what I’m talking about…)
    2)     I now have two AEBS and an Airport Express. I purchased another AEBS this weekend trying to solve the printer problem. I think your comment is related to my green status light that I mentioned. Actually what I was referring to is if you look at the system preferences in on the Mac and show the Network Status, it shows a red dot for anything that is not working and when I’m at work connected to the network, it shows a green dot if everything is working ok. At home with the Wireless Broadband, I get a yellow dot which is kind of telling me that the connection is somewhat working.
    3)     I currently have the two AEBS connected by using WDS and I don’t plan to connect the AE until I make sure everything is working correctly and I can print again.
    I assume I should be using the WAN port on the AEBS to connect the broadband. I’m not sure why I can’t use DHCP.
    Thanks again

  • Selecting correct settings for a new project

    I'm about to start my first project using Elements and the final output for the project will be need to be a H264 or a “WMV” file which which can be uploaded to an FTP site.  It will also be displayed in front of a group on a screen (size is 7.5’x10’.)
    What is the most optimal project settings I should use when I start the new project?  Something in the AVCHD catagory?  (Using NTSC).
    Thanks!

    Yes Premiere Elements has several H.264 options under the AVCHD tab including output at 1080p and 720p with various frame rates. If you only have Photoshop Elements you will be limited to making a wmv file. If you do have Premiere Elements you will get best advice at it’s own forum.
