  • CS5.5 Gripes/CS6 Wish List (from the perspective of an FCP switcher)

    I have been a Final Cut Pro user for more than 10 years (starting with version 1.2 on a 500 MHz G4).  Final Cut Pro X is a disaster, but that’s a well-covered topic for a different forum.  After experimenting with Premiere Pro CS5.5 for a few months, I am ready to make the switch for all of my future projects.
    I make a living editing video.  I don’t, however, work for a big company, and I don’t have a lot of money to spend on third-party software or hardware.  Much of my work is shot on DSLRs and delivered online.  That may put me in the category of “pro-sumer” to some, but I wouldn’t be making the switch if I didn’t require a more professional alternative to FCPX to do my job.
    I also don’t think “pro” has to be synonymous with clunky and ugly.  (I’m looking at you, Avid.)  When Final Cut was young, it was fun, intuitive, and sturdy.  It became a robust, professional NLE over time.  I think Premiere Pro is on that path now.
    I like the look, the feel, and the functionality of CS5.5.  It’s not quite Apple-slick, but it’s very much at home on a Mac.  Overall, it’s an upgrade to FCP7 and a very strong alternative to FCPX.  I have high hopes for CS6.
    But this is not a comprehensive review.  It is just a list of negatives:  my gripes, wishes, and personal preferences.  My list of positives would be much longer, but my concern right now is with CS6 and the improvements that I hope it delivers.  As I am new to Premiere, it's quite possible that I am mistaken about certain functionalities or lack thereof, but I thoroughly researched each point in the help docs and forums before posting this.
    My primary system is a 3.2 GHz iMac 21” (2010) with 8 GB RAM, 512MB VRAM (ATI Radeon HD), running Mac OS X 10.7 with external Firewire 800 drives and a DisplayPort-to-HDMI external display.
    MAJOR ISSUES
    Hardware acceleration support for ATI GPUs
    There are rumors that Apple will be switching back to nVidia, but all recent iMacs have ATI and only ATI cards.
    Background rendering (or at least improved rendering options)
    Background rendering is probably FCPX’s most impressive feature and Adobe needs to catch up.  However, even if true background rending can’t be achieved, there should be an auto-render option (after a set idle time), partial rendering (if you cancel a render, keep everything that has been rendered up until that point), and more render options (e.g. render all and render selected). Regarding that last point, I think the whole work area concept should be dropped.  It makes sense for other apps, particularly for animation, but it just gets in the way of more important timeline functions while offering little functionality beyond being a clumsy way to control the area to be rendered.  At the very least, have a way to hide it.
    Full-screen preview
    Maximizing the program frame just isn’t the same (although the grave accent key function may be reason enough to switch to Premiere).  Full-screen preview isn’t just a nifty function for demo-ing sequences.  It’s a big part of the way I work.
    DisplayPort/Thunderbolt out to HDMI
    It may be that a third-party card is required for proper color correction on an external display, but there’s no reason this feature shouldn’t exist.
    Thumbnail images/show frames bug
    This one drives me crazy. I’ve tested this on 3 different Mac systems with various hardware configurations. Thumbnail images in the bins and frame images in the timeline seem to be recreated every time a project is opened, even though the thumbnail image files in the media cache folder don’t actually appear to get rewritten. It’s as if there is no cache at all (even for the most recently viewed bins and timelines segments).  It can’t be an intentional functionality for saving hard drive space because the cache files continue to take up more and more space.
    Open multiple projects simultaneously
    I know that you can cut and paste between projects but being able to open multiple projects at the same time is a very useful feature of FCP7.
    Magic Mouse/Magic Trackpad scrolling
    Premiere Pro is a cross-platform system and impressively so, but there need to be a few Mac-specific interface adjustments, the most important of which is support for the Magic Mouse and Magic Trackpad scrolling.  I use a Magic Mouse.  (It’s an irritating device sometimes, but once you get used to it, it’s hard to live without it.)  When I’m in a window, I expect a flick up or down to scroll up or down -- in every situation, every time, including the timeline.  Unless I stop using all other Mac apps, I will never get accustomed to the timeline suddenly flying left or right when I want to scroll up or down. Also, here’s a chance for Adobe to fix a problem that FCP7 shared:  When you scroll up or down in the effect control window using the mouse, the drop-down effect controls sometimes twirl all over the place if the mouse happens to float over them. As it is, it very easy to throw settings into random disarray without even realizing it just by scrolling through the pane.
    The timeline:  selection indication, icons, and general improvements
    It is very difficult to discern at a glance what, if anything, is selected in the timeline. Transitions always look selected!  Audio tracks should be a different color or otherwise more distinct. There should be an option to show frames only without any text. The icons for track options are small, crowded, and ugly.  Some of the editing icons are too similar, namely edit and ripple edit, although the excellent status bar at the bottom of the application goes a long way towards making up for this.  Simply put, the timeline could use some polish.  Don’t be afraid to steal from Apple on this one.  Keep the tracks; just make it easier on the eyes!
    Conforming audio
    The ability of CS5.5 to work natively with DSLR footage is awesome, but it’s not fully DSLR native if it has to pre-render a major component of the footage before it can play, even if it’s just the audio.
    Media loading
    When launching a project, it can take a long time for all the media in the project to “load” as tracked in the status bar.  I’m sure there’s a reason for this, but since the program is able to determine which source media files are missing before this step (and gives you the option to reconnect them), what is it doing and why must it load every clip in the project, even those not in use by any sequences?
    Page up/page down and arrow key commands
    For starters, the current page up/page down key functions should take the CTI to the next cut in the sequence, not the next cut in the track that happens to be targeted, which can be way down timeline.  In FCP7, I frequently navigated cut to cut with the up and down arrow keys.  I’ve avoided customizing the keyboard commands to match FCP7 --  I would rather endure some hardship and learn the proper Adobe commands -- but this one is flat-out backwards.  The page up/down keys should page through the timeline (left to right and right to left), while the up and down arrow keys should take over the clip to clip function (assuming the targeted track issue is fixed).  Currently, the down arrow takes you to the very end of the timeline, a function already duplicated by and better suited for the “end” key.
    Bin management and clip relationships
    Deleting an item from a bin should not delete it from the timeline, but this is part of a bigger problem, which is the whole master file versus instance versus subclip versus dup clip thing. There aren’t any good indicators regarding the relationships of these clips, and there are few ways to adjust them.  If clips are going to be connected, then they should be fully connected.  For instance, changing the name of a clip in the bin should change it in the timeline.  Adding an effect or trimming should affect the corresponding clips between bin and timeline.  Otherwise, the clips should just be completely separate instances.  I haven’t been able to find an option to turn a clip into an independent instance, although I have to think it exists.  Also, editing an instance of a title does change every other instance of that title throughout the sequence.  I would prefer to be able to edit them separately without having to duplicate them in the title editor.
    Bin effects
    Related to the above, it should be possible to add effects to clips in bins or keep effects on clips added to bin from timeline.  It would also be nice to be able to group effects together in bins for a specific project.  The effects window is better suited for global collections.
    Clearer visual indicators that a clip has been adjusted in the effect controls panel
    Even with the effects panel visible, you have to take a close look to see if there have been any adjustments to the standard settings. An indicator on the clip in the timeline itself would be useful.
    Snapping should include the CTI
    It should also include the blade tool, although the Cmd-K option to cut at the CTI position does make this less of an issue.
    Smoother scrubbing
    Scrubbing is pretty awful.  While this is understandable with native footage, FCPX somehow manages to make this silky smooth at full resolution.
    Color correction shape mask and better color correction in general
    Simplify the primary functions of the 3-way color correction effect.  Keep all the rarely used adjustments out of the way.  I use Magic Bullet for some purpose, but I’ve always done most of my color correction within FCP.  Put the most common adjustments front and center (or up top, as it may be).  The highlights/mid-tone/shadows drop-down is inconsistent in what controls it pertains to.
    FCPX’s color correction is actually one of its more underrated features.  The way it allows you to layer corrections is dead-simple yet as powerful as anything in FCP7 or Premiere.  Stick with the 3 wheels, but rely less on hard to control tonal ranges and add simple keyframe-able shape masks for secondary color correction.
    Better support for shared media access
    AVID is king in this arena and Adobe needs to improve.  It should be possible for multiple editors to safely work on the same project files and share media over a server.
    MINOR ISSUES
    More vertically compact playback/edit control area in source and program panes
    Make room for either a taller timeline or bigger previews.  The virtual scrubber and shuttle controls are the nifty things you drag with the mouse the first time you ever use an NLE and never touch again.
    Larger icons in icon view
    Remember size and position of bin windows
    Playback resolution setting indicator
    There should be an always-visible indicator of the playback res setting in the preview pane that’s easy to adjust without right-clicking.
    Better markers for sequences and clips
    Include colors and more keyboard shortcut control.
    Clip sliding with keyboard commands
    “Opt-,” (that’s Option-comma) should cause a clip collision, not overwrite.  Either that, or “,” and “.” should slide, while “Opt-,” should overwrite.  Opt-arrow should only extend an adjoining clip if in the middle of two clips.  Basically, this whole arrangement should be re-thought.
    Project browser should auto refresh/sort.
    Option-drag on a Mac should always be copy, not move.
    Copy is currently command-drag in the project browser.
    Stop auto-save from interrupting adjustments in timeline.
    Ideally, the auto-save should just be a background function, but it should at least wait until you’re not in the middle of dragging something.
    Add ability to select a cut directly and add default transition.
    CTI control
    If you move the CTI while it’s in play mode, it should continue to play from that spot after you release the mouse, not stop there.
    Show number of frames being adjusted during keyframe adjustments.
    Enable/disable specific effect parameters/keyframes.
    Clearing an effect should clear keyframes as well.
    Or have an option to clear both.
    Position controls
    There should be a preference to make the default position 0.0 x 0.0 (as opposed to 50% of whatever the resolution happens to be), and include a reset button.
    Through-edit indicator in timeline
    And a quick way to join clips, such as a right-click menu option.
    Border controls for images
    Auto save location preference and functionality
    In FCP7 I set the number of auto saves to keep to the maximum of 100 and Premiere can go even higher.  I have always used this feature as an additional backup and archive system, which has come in very handy.  Those files add up, however.  So, I prefer to auto-save to an external drive.  Also, auto saves in Premiere continue to occur whenever there are unsaved changes.  This means that if you make a small adjustment and then leave Premiere for a while, it will keep auto saving the same iteration, which is not only inefficient but leads to my next point….
    Tame the bouncing dock icon on auto save
    While using other apps, there’s no need for the dock icon to bounce every time Premiere performs an auto save.
    More/clearer control over cache locations
    There should also be an option to reset the cache/render file locations to their defaults.
    Export source range
    When exporting, remember the last-used setting of the export source range (or just dump the whole work area thing as I previously suggested).  It’s too easy to cut off a portion of the video when the export defaults back to the work area every time.
    Larger timecode display
    After spending hours and hours editing, the current timecode for clips and sequences is something you want to be able to track without squinting.  Use the letters h,m,s and f instead of colons.
    Simple slug
    Creating a black matte works okay, but it involves a few extra steps.
    Snapping toggle
    FCP allows you to quickly toggle snapping while dragging a clip.  Upon releasing the clip, the snap toggle returns to its original state.  Premiere could use this fucntion, but I suggest something simpler.  Holding down the “S” key should always turn snapping on regardless of toggle state, while releasing it returns it to however it was set before.
    Ability to dock the audio meters along top
    I like to give my timeline as much horizontal space as possible.  I’ve noticed a lot of users keep the toolbar up there, myself included.  I think it would be a good place horizontally aligned audio meters as well.
    More detailed tool tips or hover explanations in preferences
    For example:  The options regarding XMP data should make it clear that the original files will be modified by Premiere.  This caused me problems in other applications.  (After researching these settings, I understand that various Adobe applications use this information to share resources, but it’s still very unclear what the specific benefits are or what functions are lost without this option.)
    More detailed support documents
    The online support documents on the Adobe site very good.  They are nicely arranged and easy to search, but they could be more detailed and offer fuller explanations.  (Peruse the support forums and you will discover all kinds of debates that could have been easily cleared up with one concise line in a help document.)
    Icons and button design
    Icons and buttons are often too small, too similar, and too crowded throughout the interface.  Take some style tips from Apple on this one.
    NEW FEATURE WISH LIST
    Footage auto-analysis:  shot recognition, color correction, and color match
    If only Apple had just added these features and others to the FCP7 framework.  Adobe can do it better though, by using smart folders in addition to the traditional bins that we know and trust (anything besides those dreadful iMovie-style “events”).
    Effect previews
    In the 64-bit era, there has to be a quicker way to preview effects.
    Ability to render in alternate formats
    Namely ProRes or DNxHD.  This would save me considerable time on exports by allowing me to select the “use preview files” option.
    PluralEyes functionality
    Okay, I suppose I should just purchase PluralEyes...again.
    Many, many more effects!
    How about starting with the missing vignette effect?  Just because an app is “pro” doesn’t mean you should have to custom build every effect.
    Many, many more looks!
    Will most of them be cheesy looks I would never touch?  Sure...but give me some templates to play with before I tweak the look down to my exact specifications.
    More speed!
    FCPX, for all its flaws, blazes on any modern Mac.  This probably comes back to hardware acceleration, but while Premiere Pro on a Mac isn’t slow, it doesn’t blow you away.

    You hit the nail on the head, Peter.
    I recently started giving Premiere Pro CS5 a try, and was shocked by the amount of bugs and usability issues. I'm not even going as deep as you in the features, but the most glaring evidence of the lousy interface is that timecode offset bubble that appears everytime you move a clip in the timeline... the bugger appears just under your mouse pointer and won't go away, so if you try to just move a clip down a track quickly, and let go of the button ONTO the bubble, it acts as an obstacle and your drag/drop fails ! seriously, Adobe... don't tell me nobody has stumbled upon this one during beta-testing ?
    Ditto on the autosave that basicly interrupts anything you're doing. No background saving in 2011 ? At first it bothered me to no end so I disabled the autosave. And then a few hours later, Premiere crashed, and didn't even try to recover my work. I lost 2 hours of intricate work. I put autosave back on, and learned to endure the constant, annoying save dialog. And it's not like the save process is instant... even the simplest of projects takes 5 to 10 seconds to save... on an SSD... come on... let me work already...
    Of course, a headache-inducing implementation wouldn't be complete if the autosave didn't trigger even 30 seconds after a manual save. If I choose an interval of 5 minutes, just autosave 5 minutes after a manual save !
    In thumbnail view, you can reorder the clips manually. It's all fine, but you can't reorder them by name or date or length, unless you switch to list view and of course, lose the thumbnails.
    Dragging and dropping a clip in thumbnail view is a chore, because the palette doesn't scroll when the mouse reaches the edge. You know, when you want to move something at the top all the way to the bottom... so you have to drag, let go, scroll one screen, drag, let go, scroll one screen... it's a joke. Even the timeline can do it. Heck, it's a software standard, nowadays.
    Renaming a clip and pressing ENTER takes you back to... the top of the folder !?! How many times I've renamed files that were at the end of the thumbnail view, and for each clip, I had to scroll back down. Time waster.
    Want to locate a clip from the timeline, in the project ? the locate function takes you to the folder. But not to the file, you have to navigate towards it manually.
    Ditto on the up/down arrows. I haven't found a way to jump from cut to cut like in FCP7. How often do I need to jump to the starting/ending points ? much less often than jumping to a nearby cut.
    How come I can't reorder filters in the effects pane ? sorry, I can actually reorder the filters... provided I take them from the bottom and move them up. Moving effects down doesn't work. It's driving me crazy.
    Conforming happens more or less anytime. Without reason. And even if the Media Cache is already full of conformed files.
    When moving the boundaries of the work area, no timecode/offset appears. You need to let go of the button and THEN hover, then you'll know the exact time/duration.
    Try scrolling up in the timeline, it scrolls to the left (which is stupid, it should scroll up). Now scroll up on the tabs of a palette : they scroll to the right !?!
    Can't select an active track. Direct consequence : copy-pasting a clip overlaps anything that's on track 1. Say I want to duplicate clips on the same track... I can't do it.
    Copy-pasting between projects doesn't keep the transitions, only the order of the clips.
    Have you tried doing a frame freeze on a reversed clip and setting proper in/out points for the freeze ? Good luck.
    "Duplicate" command, when you right click on a thumbnail, is way too far from the cut/copy/paste commands at the top, even though they're quite related.
    The other day I transcoded footage with different audio parameters. Just the audio had changed. Upon opening the project, Premiere wanted me to locate the files, which I did. And it failed miserably. Instead, I opened the project ignoring the missing files, and then re-linked them. I pointed Premiere at the first missing file, and had to confirm the replacement. Premiere saw all the other missing files in that folder, and began prompting me FOR EACH SINGLE FILE !!! two hundred and forty three of them, precisely. Can't I have a "yes to all" button in 2012 ? and why does the relinking work inside the project and not when you open a project ?
    That was just from 3 days with Premiere Pro CS5. I still can't believe it. Just to think people bashed Final Cut Pro X, praising Premiere in comparison... Sorry, but they both have serious issues. And Premiere doesn't even have the excuse of novelty.

  • Problem: Illustrator CS6 - print PostScript (fuzziness and blurring edges of vector objects)

    Hello,
    Earlier to print to the printer Develop Ineo+ 451 used the program Illustrator CS3. In connection with the transition to Windows 7 (64bit), was bought by a new version of Illustrator CS6 64bit. Unfortunately, when printing from Illustrator CS6 (price lists, business cards, labels) on a PostScript printer were detected problems, which were not in previous versions of Illustrator CS3.
    A comparison of the print quality of the two programs Adobe Illustrator CS3 and Adobe Illustrator CS6, made on a PostScript
    The software used on the computers:
    1st PC: Windows XP SP2 (32bit), Adobe Illustrator CS3 (32bit), the driver Generic 50C-2SeriesPS v3.0.16.0 (32bit).
    2nd PC: Windows 7 SP1 (64bit), Adobe Illustrator CS6 (64bit), the driver Generic 50C-2SeriesPS v3.0.16.0 (64bit).
    Printer: Develop Ineo+ 451 (PostScript).
    Drivers are available for download on the site www.chansi.ru
    link http://download6.konicaminolta.eu/develop/public/&&BDV&RU&sw&&&&&0&&&0&&0&&0
    (to choose Product Ineo + 452, for download tested version of the printer driver).
    Because after using the new version of the driver, the print quality was not satisfactory, then for the correctness of the comparison experiment, already used driver version 50C-2SeriesPS v3.0.16.0 has been selected.
    When you print from the program Adobe Illustrator CS6, a printer PostScript, you can see fuzziness and blurring edges of vector objects, small text becomes fuzzy and difficult to read. If you print from a program Adobe Illustrator CS3 (using the same version of the driver), there are not such problems and the print quality is quite satisfactory.
    The settings in the dialog box "Print" of Adobe Illustrator and the print settings in the dialog boxes of the PostScript printer driver of Develop Ineo+ 451, were chosen exactly the same for both versions of the programs Adobe Illustrator CS3 and Adobe Illustrator CS6 on both operating systems!!!

    What's the explanation for the following sequence?
    1. Paste as Smart Object, at moment after pasting and before clicking the commit icon (no transform was made) in options bar. The object is rendered pixel-perfect.
    2. After the commit. The object is poorly rendered with gray pixels which should be white.
    3. Press Cmd+T for transform mode. The object is rendered pixel-perfect again.
    4. After canceling transform mode, the object is poorly rendered again.

    BobbyH5280.  Very helpful answer!  I am XP for the next week on CS6.  I did find 3 items that helped.  The fonts are in AI, but are listed on the bottom of the list.  Also in Edit/Preferences/Type, checking "Show Font Names in English" makes the font list easier to read (doesn't appear to change the sort order though), and (with your suggestion) checking "Sow Asian Options" might do something positive.  Thanks to all of you who sent in tips.

  • Illustrator CS6 is not listed in the Programs panel.

    Hi, my Illustrator CS6 is not listed in the Programs panel in the Extensions Manager. How do I restore it?
    A bit of history:
    I had been using ScriptBay with Illustrator CS6 before, without problems. After my someone came and resolve some of my computer's network permissions issues, I discovered that ScriptBay panel has stopped working normally.
    However, the script still works fine in Indesign CS6
    I tried deleting some preferences, but scriptBay refused to work in Illustrator. Then, I copied a colleague's Illustrator CS6 to test on my machine (without deleting my copy). And now, my extension manager does not list Illustrator ib the panels.
    Can anyone help with these 2 issues? I wanted the ScriptBay to work so badly!!
    Thanks!

    Willlucv you will want to install Illustrator CS6 by choosing the Previous Version option within the Creative Cloud Desktop application.  You can find additional details at Install and update apps - https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/help/install-apps.html.

  • My Illustrator CS6 will not launch

    I was working with an AI file in Illustrator today. Everything was working fine and I made some edits and placed the file in my inDesign document.  I saw another change I wanted to make so I right clicked on the file and selected Edit with Illustrator.  I received a Windows pop up box that said, "Adobe Illustrator CS6 has stopped working A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available." The only option was to click the "Close program" button.  No other info was given.  For the last two  hours I have been searching Google, these forums and asking some of my Illustrator friends if they had any ideas.
    I can open the program by holding down the shift key and I can even open a file but no features are available  (See image)  As you can see most of the options in the windows are missing.  Even if I open a file, nothing in the Window menu is available and even preferences will not open.  I can't even use shortcuts.
    Google says you can reset/delete preferences by holding shift - control - at while opening the program. This still doesn't work and the system crashes on the load of ColorHarmony.aip
    I have not reinstalled the software because after reading other issues on the net that were very similar to mine, this did not help.  I was working with fonts and deleted one because it didn't work at all.  I don't remember the name but I know it started with a T.  When I went to Windows/Fonts the font only came up as hahahah hahaha instead of characters of the alphabet.  So, I deleted it thinking something is up with this font.  Maybe I've messed up a required font?
    I am running Illustrator CS6 16.0.3 64bit.
    I finally found an article that pointed me to three logs.  There was nothing with the date and time of my last attempt to open the software in PDApp.log.  The file oobelib.log had the following info from my last attempt to open the program:

    Thank you in advance.

    Kim I reviewed the account you used to post to this forum and there is no registered software titles under the account.  My apologies but this is likely what is leading to the difficulty with the correct contact options being offered to you.
    I would recommend contacting our support team at Contact Customer Care.  This link should allow you to speak with a member of our support team without having a software titled registered.
    Alternately you can register your CS6 software title by following the steps listed in Find your serial number quickly.
    Finally if you continue to face difficulties contacting our support team then please verify the contact information located under your account at http://www.adobe.com/ and I can request a member of our support team contact you directly.  Once you have made this verification if you can either private message me or update this discussion I will submit the request.

  • Font Scrolling Illustrator CS6

    In Illustrator CS6 I can no longer use my scroll wheel when the font window list is open and it takes forever to click the up and down arrow to find fonts. Is this a setting that can be changed? I am on a PC.
    Thanks

    For AICS5 (assume it is the same on CS6):
    Follow this path (Mac):
    2. Open the document profile you'd like to change.
    3. Make desired changes, save and close.
    4. Open a new document and select the "New document profile" that you just updated.
    5. New document should reflect the changes you just made to the profile.
    Hope this helps. I was just going through this this morning as well.

  • Color management in Illustrator CS6 and InDesign CS 6-settings & workflow questions.

    I've read the color management posts and the Adobe help file regarding the Pantone + libraries and the new differences between CS5 & 6. However I'm still a bit confused as to just what my settings should be, and a few posts offer different pieces of advice, so I'm looking for clarification. I don't need to work with legacy CS files, so I don't want to swap out the old Pantone libraries for the Plus ones. However I still have my old Pantone Solid, Coated and Uncoated swatchbooks and until I can afford the new Plus swatchbooks, I'll depend on those. I'm hoping the difference between Pantone 321U and Pantone+ 321 is not great.
    If I'm preparing a file for print and to be placed into an InDesign CS6 document for print, I know both document color modes should be CMYK—got that. In Illustrator CS6, I'm assuming I would use a Pantone+ Uncoated swatch (remember I'm using the old Pantone Uncoated swatch book as a visual guide and praying that the difference isn't too noticeable.)
    1. In the Swatch settings pallette, should I set the Spot Color option to use the first choice—use LAB values specified by the book manufacturer, or use CMYK values from the manufacturer process books.
    2. In the View menu, should I select Overprint Preview to get a (more or less-I know the drill) closer monitor color to what will be printed.
    I don't want to fool around with trying to set the CMYK values as listed in Pantone Color Bridge CMYK EC (found on Scribed here: http://www.scribd.com/doc/33104/Pantoner-Color-BridgeTm-Cmyk-Ec ), and I'm not even sure of the point in doing so or what it would do for me.
    What I want is to depend on a swatch book, select the named swatch from the Pantone library, have all my settings set properly,  then place it in InDesign, then send the file to a digital printer and get as close an approximation to the swatch book selection as possible. I need monitor color settings to reflect the swatches as best possible.
    When I can afford it, should I opt for the Pantone+ Coated and Uncoated swatchbooks, or the Color Bridge? I'm usure of the difference, and if there are any Illustrator or InDesign settings that would need to be changed depending.
    As a corollary to this questions, once the settings are OK in Illustrator, what do they need to be in InDesign? There are settings for Ink Manager (all spots to process or use standard LAB values for spots, the Color palette has check options for LAB, CMYK, RGB.
    I'm not  sure what needs to be set in InDesign to make sure colors are consistent between what is set in Illustrator and then what InDesign does.

    Let me try to help you further:
    1. In Illustrator's Swatch settings pallette, should the Spot Color Mode option be set to use:
    a. CMYK
    b. LAB
    c. Book Color (not sure if this refers to the pantone swatchbook)
    - I would use "c" - Book Color.  This is the file going to the printer which will use Spot Color on press.  For a copy of the file to be output by your Canon, use "a" - CMYK.
    2. In the View menu should Overprint Preview be checked, and why, and would it differ based on the settings for #1.
    - Only if the color was transparent ( which it isn't ) would overprint preview be of any use or you use a tint value of the Spot color and a black, but even then you may not be able to detect any change in the screen view.  I typically do not use any overprint preview and I do not rely on the monitor for any color deisions.  You could be different and that is OK.  Let me know if you are able to detect any deviates using overprint preview.
    I'm sorry for being a little short.  There is a lot of confusion about these issues and Adobe and Pantone are not making things any easier.
    The key is your Canon will not be able to print accurate Spot color without a RIP for the necessary color tables and conversions for that particular printer.  In your case, it will be necessary to build a CMYK file to print a somewhat  approximate representation of that specific Spot color.  Another frustrating part of this matrix is CMYK cannot match all Pantone Spot Colors.

  • Premiere Pro wish list from CC 2014.2 (Feel free to complete !)

    After a lot of projects in Pr since the CS6 version, here are my wish list for next updates. Feel free to complete it !
    NEW FUNCTIONS FOR PR
    Copy / Paste audio track FX (audio track mix view)
    Ability to rearrange order of audio track FX
    Missing plugin information : when a plugin or an FX is missing to open a project, it's impossible to know which clip is concerned and where to find it.
    Ability to search and effect : I'd like to have the ability to search all the clips that are using "warp stabiliser" for example in my timeline / project.
    Ability to remove 1 type of FX in a selection of clips. Actually we can only remove all the FX or not
    Ability to temporary disable all FX / transformations on timeline / specified track. Like AE with his "fx" button on layer.
    Change the standard label color names with STANDARD names (red, green, yellow). I know it's possible to do it but please do it by default.
    Ability to change the color background of the source / program monitor to something not black. When a black or near black video is played, we can't simply find the border of this video.
    NEW FUNCTIONS FOR MEDIA ENCODER
    Ability to add text in the file name in regard of the encoding format. If I encode a timeline named "FILM" in my H.264 preset I'd like AME to automatically name the file "FILM_H264_1080p25" or whatever.
    BUG FIX
    Fix the timecode bug on frame holds. When frame hold is applied to a clip, the timecode displayed (program overlay) continues running. Worse : if this frame hold is trimmed from the beginning or the end, the time code shift... Making a conformation impossible !!
    Fix the speed effect on clip. When a 400% speed effect is applied to a clip, it sometimes do 399.xx % speed effects. It's confirmed by precomp to an AE comp. AE is also showing a wrong value...
    Lumetri FX is dissapering when a clip is precomp to an AE comp from Pr.
    Missing font warning : when a font is missing, Pr does not tell which clip is concerned and simply replace with another font !

    Those are all great suggestions.  Here's my list.

    FR:  Project Specific Cache

  • Error when installing Adobe Illustrator CS6 (64bit)

    Hello everybody,
    I've been trying to install all packages inside Creative Suite 6 Design Standard CD but the installation fails, then decided to install one by one and noticed the error comes only when installing Illustrator CS6 (64bit).
    My PC is runing windows 7 64bit and the error it appears says: win32 cabinet self-extractor stopped working.
    Could anybody give me a hand with this issue, I already look on the web but couldn't find something that really helps me.

  • Adobe Illustrator CS6 will not open.

    I have a problem: the illustrator app will not open. I get the pop-up: To open "Adobe Illustrator CS6" you need to install the legacy Java SE 6 runtime. Click "More Info..." to visit the legacy Java SE 6 download website.
    Both clicking "More Info..." and "OK" only make the pop-up disappear, but lead absolutely nowhere.
    From Oracle.com I have already downloaded and installed 'jre-8u25-macosx-x64.dmg'. After install and restart i keep getting the same pop-up as before and i still can't open Ai. Any advice?
    MBP 5,5 13 inch, Yosemite

    hi,
    I updated from mavericks to Yosemite today which was a very bad idea. I had issues with my internal sound adapter and the system start is now very slow. I might going back to mavericks..
    However, I wish the above link you gave here would work. After clicking the blue download button nothing happens. Any other idea how I could go back from my actual java 8-31 back to java 6?
    Thanks, H

  • Why Photoshop and Illustrator CS6 are so slow on my MacBook Pro early 2011?

    First of all sorry for my english
    I recently installed Photoshop and Illustrator CS6 and they tend to lag even on just during normal work operations like zooming, opening a file, selecting a tool, browsing menus etc etc.
    Cpu, Ram and Gpu usage are normal, I mean when I use these software there's at list 85% of free Cpu, 1GB of Ram still available, and 80% of free GPU. And I got 30GB left on my hardrive which is little but I believe is enough.
    So I cannot believe this slow performance is due hardware limitations. There must be some driver issue or something else.
    Anyone knows why CS6 is so slow?
    Software version:
    Photoshop CS6 13.0.1
    Illustrator CS6 13.0.0
    My Specs:
    Os: Snow Leopard 10.6.8
    Cpu: Intel Core i7 2.3 GHz
    L2 Cache (per Core): 256 KB
    L3 Cache: 8 MB
    4GB ram
    AMD Radeon HD 6750M

    My experience is that Photoshop can demand and use prodigious amounts of memory and disk space, much more than one might expect from the size of the files being worked on. While I don't have direct experience with CS6, my daughter uses CS4 on a Macbook Air with 4 GB memory and she had 100 GB free (on a 250 GB solid state drive). CS4 is less demanding than CS6, and in fact with the SSD, it runs pretty well, even with just 4 GB memory (the solid state drive is basically like memory, in fact, in some ways). However after running Photoshop on some projects for a while, we noticed she had only 60 GB free disk space. After restarting her Mac, she had 100 GB free again. Photoshop CS4 was using up 40 GB of disk space! And this was simply editting some (multiple) photos from a digital camera. Photoshop not only has its own memory management processes, but it also pages to disk and uses disk space as "scratch space" in its own fashion. I think that it is inadvisable to run Photoshop with less than 100 GB free disk space, and that's with CS4, not even CS6. And if you don't have a solid state drive, the throughput might slow down immensely unless you have a lot of memory (I think someone else pointed this out already).
    Bottom line -- based on what I have seen with CS4, 4 GB memory is too low by at least a factor of x2 (16 GB memory would be even better), and I'd say a minimum of 100 GB free disk space is a must as well. I saw CS4 using more than 40 GB of "scratch disk space" and you are using CS6, which must use significantly more resources than CS4, and you indicate only 30 GB free space. That seems too low to me. I think other Adobe major software packages are similarly demanding, unlike any other software I have seen or used. For instance, I think you would have no trouble running MS-Office software (which is also known for using computer resources, but not anywhere as much as Adobe software).
    One thing you can do is when you notice things slowing down, not only quit all other software except for CS6, but also in the Finder, under the Go menu, enter
    /private/var
    under Go To Folder ...
    and then look in the folder called
    vm
    If you see swapfiles, add up the total space they are taking, and also the space taken by the sleepimage file. These are working to decrease the amount of free space you have and they can quickly grow to tens of GB when Photoshop and other Adobe softwares are running.
    Since it sounds like you have now upgraded your RAM, that should help, but you may find that the swapfiles and sleepimage files are taking even more disk apce faster and I think 100 GB free space is needed to avoid further slowdowns.

  • "Output to Swatches" feature in Illustrator CS6

    Hi. Can you tell me if the "Output to Swatches" feature is still available in Illustrator CS6 (image trace options)? The online help states that it should be but it's not there anymore.. http://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/using/tracing-artwork-live-trace-or.html#tracing_option s
    Thanks

    Hi Relaxtension
    The online help which you have listed is for Illustrator CS5 and Illustrator CS4. In Illustrator CS6 this option is not available and to achieve this you have to expand the traced art and then create "New Color Group" using the Swatches panel from the selected artwork (expanded artwork).
    Regards,

  • Illustrator CS6 stürzt nach cmd+Q / beenden ab

    JB,
    If you have saved your documents, there should be no loss there, but the Preferences file(s) may suffer.
    The following is a general list of things you may try when the issue is not in a specific file (you may have tried/done some of them already); 1) and 2) are the easy ones for temporary strangenesses, and 3) and 4) are specifically aimed at possibly corrupt preferences); 5) is a list in itself, and 6) is the last resort.
    1) Close down Illy and open again;
    2) Restart the computer (you may do that up to 3 times);
    3) Close down Illy and press Ctrl+Alt+Shift/Cmd+Option+Shift during startup (easy but irreversible);
    4) Move the folder (follow the link with that name) with Illy closed (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible);
    5) Look through and try out the relevant among the Other options (follow the link with that name, Item 7) is a list of usual suspects among other applications that may disturb and confuse Illy, Item 15) applies to CC, CS6, and maybe CS5);
    Even more seriously, you may:
    6) Uninstall, run the Cleaner Tool (if you have CS3/CS4/CS5/CS6/CC), and reinstall.
