Need help, RED 2K workflow

Been working on the CS5 trial, testing red 2K and 4K and some d7 and PII footage... running sweet..
According to these I'll stablish my post workflow PC based.. but...my delivery format apple PRORES... I'm working on the trial CS5 that's I'm not sure comes with all the presets and codecs... Can I deliver PRORES using CS5 PC workflow?
Thank you
Marchello

PRORES can be handled within PPro CS4 with the latest version of Quicktime installed on Windows. On Apple it should work natively. So i think it should on CS5 Win and Apple.

Once I have correct resized an image as needed I want to change its format and save a copy.

I need help convincing my workflow administrator on Illustrator PDF presets.

I need help convincing my workflow administrator on Illustrator PDF presets.
I work at a company which prints folding cartons, pressure sensitive labels, and film packaging. Esko Automation Engine 12 is our primary workflow. We use PDF files saved directly out of Illustrator as the primary file format. At times, the size of an art file can get fairly bloated from scaled images, effects, transparency, etc. The workflow and Ilustrator have a hard time dealing with the file size. It has been suggested to use the "export" function under the File Menu and save the art file as a "normalized PDF". I honestly believe Distiller isn't even remotely involved when you do this. I tried to make the case to use the settings in the dialog box which appears when you save a PDF out of Illustrator. I know for a fact that this dialog box isn't any different from what you see in Distiller. From my years of experience with Kodak Prinergy, I know things like bicubic downsampling, etc. will not hurt the file. The workflow administrator thinks otherwise. Can anybody point me in the direction of Illustrator PDF presets that would convince him otherwise?

Brian,
What is somewhat confusing in your post is your mentioning a capability to export PDF from the File Menu as a normalized PDF file. There is no such option in Adobe Illustrator, at least as it comes directly from Adobe. You may use the File=>Save As dialog to save the file as a PDF file, but PDF is not an option under File=>Export. Furthermore, in terms of the .joboptions provided by Adobe, there is no Normalized PDF joboptions settings.
You mention Esko. Is it possible that you have one of Esko's products installed that provides proprietary plug-ins to Adobe Illustrator? If so, that may be the source of this Normalized PDF option. Maybe some other participant in the is forum knows more about that, but at Adobe, we don't (for better or worse).
You mention problems with file bloat due to “scaled images, effects, transparency, etc.” Are you referring to the Illustrator .AI files or to PDF files created from same? If the issue is the .AI file size, the only thing you can do to fix that is to uncheck the save as compatible PDF file option when saving .AI. In terms of PDF files from Adobe Illustrator:
(1) Scaled images should not add anything to a PDF file size unless you take such images and attempt to upres them in Photoshop prior to creating PDF. There really is no benefit to be achieved by such upresing of the images; any competent RIP can do that itself just as well as Photoshop.
(2) Transparency only adds to the PDF file size if you create PDF with transparency already flattened, or what I would better describe as ruined. Flattening transparency often causes large raster bitmaps and/or very complex groups of vector objects to be created to simulate transparency in an opaque imaging model (such as is supported by PostScript).
You obviously need to produce PDF that can be accommodated by the rest of your workflow. Since we don't know what that is and whether it conforms to current best industry practices, we cannot make an absolute recommendation for you.
However, generally speaking, the most reliable PDF print publishing workflow would generally require that you create PDF/X-4 using the PDF/X-4 PDF preset from Adobe Illustrator (or for that matter, from InDesign as well). PDF/X-4 supports full ICC color management (including spot colors), the entire PDF imaging model, and live transparency.

Need help with Export workflow.

Hello again.
Today I was experimenting with exporting a project using Export QT Movie and QT Conversion.
My goal is to show a QT project on the web, either 640x480 or 320xx240, depending on how monstrous the file size is.
My initial impression was that export QT Movie simply generates (I'm guessing) a full size rendering of the project. It's icon is a FC icon. What I did then was an "Open with..." quicktime(pro). This is where I get confused: I know that the next steps are for for preparing the project for sizes, compressions and so on. The export to QT movie seems to be a longer route to get to the settings that you need to use in QT Conversion, which after selecting QT conversion, you have the Format, Use, and Options settings.
Am I right so far?
Some background about my project- Easy setup= DV-NTSC. If I look in my browser, my clips are 720x480, 29.97fps, Compressor(?)DV/DVCPRO-NTSC, pixel aspect ratio, NTSC-CCIR 601 and anamorphic is checked.
I also have still photos motion control stuff, PS tiffs, that do not have anamorphic checked.
Form here on is where I get confused.
Under settings, I am selecting DV/dvc-NTSC for compression frame rate 29.97, medium compressor, scan mode, interlaced, and aspect 4:3.
The filters setting I don't use.
The size setting I'm trying 320x240 with aspect ratio and de interlace video UNCHECKED.
Is this a good workflow for the web. I notice on 640x480 my titles (livetype) seem kind of jagged.
Any help preparing a project for the web would be appreciated. If you need more info let me know.
Thanks so much.
Jonathan

Thanks for the additional comments and ideas.
In terms of profile, as I mentioned, the intermediates will be going off to the editor (off-site) for editing on his FCP suite. I'll stick to working in the prescribed HDTV (Rec. 709) space, and I've given him all the detail I can of how I'm working, but crucially I haven't stood at his edit-suite to see how the stuff looks.
But, he's no newbie, so I'm hoping it'll be OK.
Blasted shame about the H.264 BluRay not being compatible with QT - I thought I had this whole issue beat until that came along. It's not a matter of disk space here, but the editor is mithering that the intermediates we are testing, in either PNG, or Animation, and a couple of others, are choking his playback.
I'm not sure what to say about that, other than to go down this road of trying to squish these intermediates as low as possible without wrecking the look, hence finding that the DNxHD is providing the best solution. If it had been a SD project, I might well have tried the native H.264, even over our normal PNG workflow.
So what will play the native H.264 BluRay compressed output?
Julian.

Need help on deleting workflows

Hi experts,
I need to delete workflows that need to be retired. I am veryvery new to workflows. So, what is the Tcode to delete the entire workflow? also, what are the steps that need to be check upon deleting them? i need to delete their custom tables/function modules as well. Can I delete the workflow in one shot? or i need to delete task by task..? thanks in advance

Hi,
Prior to deleting a workflow first Delete/Cancel all the workitems of that workflow. It will help you to avoid unnecessary dump while executing those workitems. Its better to cancel the workitems if it is a productive system.
To delete workflow delete the following items in below mentioned order.
1. Workflow
2. Tasks
3. BO/Classes

I need help on standard workflow of Release for payment

Hello to everyone,
I'm trying to use WF WS00400011 standard provided by SAP through the PFTC and I activated it, inform a user that I created called WF different from my user, who will be responsible in the task standand (TS00407862) and also went to basic data -> and activated the early events following entry [BO: BSEG: CREATED].
I ended up completing the settings on FINANCIAL ACCOUNT -> ACCOUNTS RECEV PAYABLE -> RELEASE OF PAYMENT.
Was also includes SWE2 - Event Type Linkages and itemizing:
[BSEG CREATED ws00400011] linkage with the active flag.
When I registed the document by FB60 or F-43 the financial document is blocked ok, but unfortunately it is not sent any Workflow / any email to the user responsible for approving. I run the transaction SWEL to check the entries , following entries:
BSEG CREATED 13.06.2011 13:20:27   WS00400011   [status gree] SWW_WI_CREATE_VIA_EVENT_IBF
BSEG CREATED 13.06.2011 13:20:27   WS00400011   [status red] feed back after error
BSEG CREATED 13.06.2011 13:20:27   WS00400011   [status info] event put in queue
I have open the item [red] and I observed a error: "Import container contains errors (any obligatory elements are missing?" message code = SWF_RUN594.
And here I am trying to solved but are very difficult because I dont have any documentation and this process is difficult to Debug. I'll be happy with any guidance received.
Regards,
Joao

Chaiphon Pulnit,
Thank you for your reply and yet dispense time to help.
Reply
I removed the entry in WSE2 WS00400011 (linkage) As your guidance and just let WS00400011. Then I tried launching a financial document with the vendor containing group relationed with the corresponding sequence of release, but still not working, or even no mail was sent, and checked in the workplace no workflow created in the user responsible for approving.
Doubts
How do I know that the workflow ws00400012 is related or connected with ws00400011? and how can I check if they really ws00400011 has the logic to perform an e-mail to the approver?

Need Help : ESS LR Workflow WS12300111

Hi ,
I want help related to ESS Leave Request workflow WS12300111.
1). In our case, a Manager can also raise a Leave for an Employee (in MSS -> My Team Details -> Create Leave for Employee). I need to identify in the workflow that whether the employee has applied for the Leave or the manager has applied on behalf of the employee. If the employee is raising the leave the workflow should follow normal approval process. If manager applies for employee, NO Approval should be required and the Leave should get posted.
Query : Do I need to add a new step in the standard workflow for this ?? Hoe can I identify when a manager is creating leave for employee and when an actual employee is creating leave for his own ?
2). In our case, If the Manager donu2019t approve the Leave for 28 days, the workflow should get completed after sending a mail to the employee for raising a new request.
Query : Do I need to add a new step in the standard workflow for this u2013 as a modelled deadline ??
Do I need to write ANY code for these two things ? If so where can I write code ? Do I need to create a new CLASS or Write code in the BADI CL_PT_ARQ_REQ ??

As, per my understanding it is not required to code anything.
Coming about the first point: If you have noticed in the workflow, there is a container element &REQ.APPROVAL& which chooses if the request need to be sent for approval or not. Find what value is getting binded to this container element & if it is not equal to 'X' it will not be sent for approval.
Second point: You can use deadline monitoring at Approval Process activity, In the "LatestEnd" provide from time of the Workitem creation to 28 days & used action as Modeled. From the outcome of the step, use a process control activity to Complete the Workflow.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,
Sudhir.

Need help in custom workflow issue

Hi All,
I have created role using API wf_directory.createadhocrole and sending notification to the respective persons, its working as expected.
But all the open notification are sent to the current user assigned to the role, also in wf_notifications table i a can see role name assigned to the Reciptent_role column instead of respective person not sure issue was caused due to this.
Please help to prevent open notification sent to the current user assigned to the role.
Thanks in advance
Rajesh

Rajesh,
Not sure about what you meant with 'But all the open notification are sent to the current user assigned to the role'. That is the intended functionality.
If what you want to achieve is that every user receives the same notification content but in separate notifications to that each user response independently then you have to check the 'Expand Roles' when you define the notification in workflow builder. This way each user will get a notification with a different notification_id.

Alejandro

Need help writing a workflow rule

Hi all!
I want to write a workflow that will populate the "Region" field when a new account is saved.
We use territories, but cannot effectively pulll contact reports due to OnDemand not having the Territory field in the Contact reporting area. (In the contact reporting area you can only pull by "Region")
When we originally set up OnDemand during the data conversion from UpShot, we set up our regions to be the same as the territories. However at this time "Region" is not a field we use, due to the need of creating accounts to be a simple as possible. So what I want to do is link the "region" field to the "Territory" field, so that when a new account is saved that field will automatically populate.
Also is using a workflow the only way to do this?
Thanks in advance!!!

The JoinFieldValue expression I put in my last post is exactly what you need. Just copy it exactly as you see it and past it in the Default Value box. You will not need to write 20 expressions. The Territory Name field in my expression is available in Territory, but you wouldn't see it in the field dropdown in Account when creating the post default.
Ok, so to test this, please copy the expression in the default value exactly as I have it above. Then check the Post Default flag. Then save your changes. You must ensure that the Territory and Region picklists are consistent. They must match exactly. Finally, you will need to log out and log back in and create a new account and pick the Territory.
Let me know how it goes.

Need help, red lines Insignia 46" TV

Hi all,
I am looking for some help. I am having an issue where every 20 minutes or so a red line flickers on the screen for about 1 second and goes away. It is not a full red line across the whole tv. It is longer horizontally but it is not one row of pixles. It varies in size but it is most of the time on the left side of the screen however it moves up and down for where it will appear.
I don't believe this is a cable issue as its happening on all of my devices (2 HDMI connections 1 Component ). The Tv is also less than a month old.
Any insight would be great
Thanks.

This is a very odd symptom. I would start by disconnecting HDMI inputs an see if it still happens with just the component input connected. Still happening? Make sure cables are fully seated. If issue continues, likely a TV issue (you have a 30day window to exchange). If problem goes away, it may be caused by a bad HDMI cable or one of the HDMI sources. It would be a good idea to make sure the connections are clean (blow out any dust in connector) and fully seated. A loose component cable may cause similar symptom as well, all connections should be checked for a correct & secure connection.

I don't see any file in the queue. any help or tips would be appreciated. We are also having a problem with workflow. I modified the xml file settings, but when i went to workflow administration, the screen is blank instead of showing a hieararchy of cost centers. please help.. thanks.

You have a very detail and involved post.
I'd suggest you take a look at speaking with an experience Final Cut Server consultant and integrator. Most of the storage and Edit-In-Place over ethernet configurations you have now is completely unsupported by Apple. So only someone with experience in this area will be able to help you really.
If you'd like to explore this option. I can help find someone that maybe able assist you based on the geographic area that you are in.

Need help with FCP workflow

I have a HDV mpeg2 project that uses extensive chromakeying and motion graphics. Should I transcode my native files to prores422 and use a proress timeline in FCP?
If the answer is YES, is mpeg streamclip (freeware) a good program to use for the transcode?

It's really not easy to do chroma keys with HDV material. Transcoding it to ProRes won't add the color information necessary for a clean key that wasn't recorded in the first place. HDV's color space just isn't set up for chroma keys. However graphics and any material NOT HDV may look a bit better if you transcode to ProRes.
That said, there are programs out there to help.
http://www.dvcreators.net/chroma-key-in-hd/ has some included in it.
http://www.dvgarage.com/prod/prod.php?prod=dvmatteb is a Mac program that gets good reviews for keying with consumer formats. Been around a long time I know.
A lot of the success of a clean key is the way it was shot in the first place... You'll find that the keyer in Motion is a bit better than the one that comes with FCP too.
