How to advise non-prepress professionals on ink weight reduction

I am putting together a document that has a lot of advertising artwork which is being created by semi-professionals/non-professionals. The printing requires a total ink weight/ink limit of 280%. Despite supplying very detailed instructions on how to achieve this with the supplied artwork, it is beyond the expertise of many of the artwork creators. In the past, they have objected to using (and paying for) a third party advertising artwork delivery service which could amend ink weight issues. It seems my options are to 1. send the files back until they are correct, or 2. amend them myself, which leaves me open to potential issues if for any reason the artwork doesn't print as expected. Are there any other options that anyone could suggest? Thanks in advance.

If you accept tagged RGB, then it moves the burden away from the creator completely. If your creators are not experienced, having them work in CMYK seems unnecessary.

  • HT4461 how to download non-Apple store apps on iMac 10.8

    How to download non-Apple store apps on iMac 10.8. I want to transfer photos from a Samsung Galaxy S4 to the iMac.

    If your Mac is not allowing you to download 3rd party apps that are from a source other than the Mac App Store, it is likely the security setting in System Preferences. Go to Sys Prefs/Security & Privacy/General and set the download options best for you. You will likely find the download options grayed out. You will need to click the padlock below and supply your admin password to unlock the preference pane.

    How to Stop non statistical condition type value from updating Total Amount
    Regards,
    Sai

    Dear Sai,
    You need to make that condition type as Statistical one
    Go to SPRO - Sales and Distr. - Basic Functions - Pricing - Define and Assign Pricing Proc - Maintain Pricing Proc - Control Date
    Select the proc. - select the condition type and activate the  check box Statistical
    This will show the amount of the condition but will not consider for the net value calculation
    Hope this will help you

    How  to track non-valued customer owned inventory, including retained samples

    Dear Paddy
    As for as inventory is concerned, you can track through MB51 where you can see customer code and delivery reference.
    In case of samples, if you have maintained a separate order type / billing type and raised commercial invoice, you can track through VF05 by selecting "Further selection criteria". 
    thanks

    I believe Solaris 9 also has RBAC control. If so then all you need to do is present the uid with the PRIV_NET_PRIVADDR privilege. See the privielegs(5) manpage for more information on the subject.
    This privilege will allow the userid to bind to ports < 1024. You can give a user this privilege either by using usermod (you will probably need the auth_attr(4) manpage as well) after which you need to login again. Or you can try using ppriv to modify the privileges on the users shell.

  • How to Export Non-Administrators Local GPO for import on a different PC

    How to export Non-Administrators Local Group Policy and import on another PC?
    All articles for exporting local GPO say to copy the C:\Windows\System32\GroupPolicy and C:\Windows\System32\GroupPolicyUsers folder to another PC however that only works for changes done to the "Local Computer" or "User" (if you
    alter the SIDs to match), respectively. It doesn't work to import Non-Admin Local GPO.
    There are several requests for this you can find when searching and no solutions provided.

    Hi,
    For manage local GPO, we could take use of the LocalGPO tool included in the SCM.
    LocalGPO allows you to manage the local group policy objects (LGPO) on non-domain joined computers. You can use LocalGPO to backup the LGPO from a stand-alone machine. You can also use it to apply the settings from a GPO backup to other computers, this includes
    GPO backups created by LocalGPO, SCM, or the Active Directory Domain Services GPO backups created with the Group Policy Management Console.
    Here is a good article talking about it:
    SCM v2 Beta: LocalGPO Rocks!
    And here is a thread for reference:
    Using LocalGPO.wsf for standalone PC's

  • Total ink weight for fabrics or suggested color profile.

    My client's approved their project and I now have some tradeshow pop-up panels to "convert to CMYK" that will be printed on [some stretchy unknown] fabric. I was wondering if anyone knows the total ink weight for the [stretchy] textiles used for tradeshows or if there is a suggested color profile to use during conversion (or if the real printers actually want this... I had seen that some textile printers actually prefer LAB). In the past I took a guess and used Web Offset Coated and it came out "okay" on Tyvek where something was printed locally, but these are a "stretchy fabric," so I'm guessing something like Web Offset Uncoated? I know the inkjet printers are capable of outputting a lot of ink and do not want the fabric to run or visually bleed though, also I wasn't sure if the tradeshow fabrics are printed with the typical oversized inkjet printers at all.
    The "print vendor" (middleman) told me emphatically CMYK conversion was a must, but seemed confused by the question of suggested color profile for converting and could not provide an answer. Unfortunately they're in a deal with my client and the producer of the booth so I'm stuck with them. Also they have not provide the contact info for the producer of the booth. I'd rather not use uncoated because I know there will be a significant loss of vibrance in the printing. So I come to the plethora of knowledge here at Adobe.

    Okay so I received more feedback from my client. When they were pitched it sounds like the vendor is going to print with Dye Sub. I'm thinking the middleman might not know what he's talking about (since they couldn't tell me which CMYK) so to be safe I'm going to provide the files in RGB (Adobe 1998) AND CMYK (U.S. Web Offset Coated SWOP). That way they can pick and choose. I got U.S. Web Offset Coated as a suggestion off a search for CMYK conversion and Dye Sub on large format printers. Hope this helps someone.
