    Quark's Company Turnaround

    Sombody has to stand up and say how much Quark has changed in the last year and a half. They finally realized how their arrogance and unfriendlines was driving people into Adobe's lap. They now have entirely new leadership, are doing much more for customer service and are starting many new...

    problems with quark, pdfs, different platforms

    Quark 7 is in pre-release for testing only. According to Quark, it is not meant for production, only testing. They are releasing revised builds frequently. The first file I saved from it would not re-open. I now use it to play with, but not for real jobs. Quark reported last week that testers...

    training book

    I have lots of books, but prefer video instead. I never seem to get around to the books, but will watch video training. For $25/month, lynda.com offers a thousand hours of training Quicktime movies in many applications, including Photoshop. I also belong to NAPP, National Association of...

    Help with settings in Photoshop..so that output is same as edited imag

    This all may be happening simply because of the JPG format. It is a lossy compression. It throws away (loses) data to make the compression, unlike the TIF-LZW compression, which is loss-less compression. Anytime you are tossing data, I would think there could be significant color shifts. JPG was...

    RGB to CMYK...HELP !!!

    Just a little clarification. The human eye can see umpteen millions of colors with extremely subtle variations. RGB (color made from light) can reproduce perhaps a quarter of that. CMYK (color made from ink) can only reproduce a third of RGB. Printing presses cannot print continuous tone...

    Book recommendation for technically challenged beginner

    There is a great website for training like this, lynda.com. For $25/month, you have access to probably a thousand hours of training (broken into many 3 to 20 minute Quicktime movies) in dozens of applications. Photoshop alone has a many of hours of training, from the very basics up to power user.

    RGB to CMYK...HELP !!!

    All I know that opinions differ out there, but I have been a prepress opertor for the last nine years (now doing training). Prepress departments are the people who take the designer's files and make them work on press. RGB is created from light, CMYK is created from ink. Exact matches are not...

    RGB to CMYK...HELP !!!

    Sonic Max You need to re-convert all of your images. But before you do, go to the Color Settings (command/control-shift-K). With the pull-down menu, change to U.S. Prepress Defaults. Photoshop has many different ways of converting RGB to CMYK, most of which don't look very good in print. U.S...
