Adobe Acrobat / Re: Errant Object in Preview
Last post by whamboozeled - September 28, 2023, 12:29:25 PMWe get problems like this when customers are opening the pdf in a browser instead of acrobat.
If we can't convince them that it won't print that way we convert to an image and re send and it magically fixed it.

Last post by Possum - September 22, 2023, 12:45:25 PMTurning off automatic updates is probably the best thing for any software these days. At least until you find out that others have had no problems with the latest update of anything. Use the general, uninformed public for guinea pigs.

Enfocus / FYI WARNING
Last post by pspdfppdfxhd - September 20, 2023, 08:38:22 AM| PitStop Pro Mac users, don't update yet to the latest Adobe version |
| Dear Paul, This week, Adobe released a new update for Adobe Acrobat (v2023.006.20320). Unfortunately, the Mac version of this update introduced a problem for PitStop Pro: when you select an object(s) in PitStop Pro, the selected objects and anchor points are not displayed, however, as seen in the Inspector tool the object is selected, and the functionality of PitStop Pro remains. There is no workaround for this issue, so we would like to advise PitStop users on a Mac not to update Acrobat at this time. Windows users are not affected. We have reported the issue to Adobe, and are in discussion with their engineers on how to resolve the issue. Please be assured that we will resolve this issue as soon as possible. When there is a fix, we will let you know via email. There is a knowledgebase article available on the topic. In general, we recommend turning off automatic updates for Acrobat, to prevent inconvenient consequences in PitStop in the future. Kind regards Tim Bernaerdt Head of Customer Success |

Adobe Illustrator / Re: Pantone
Last post by Possum - September 19, 2023, 04:17:40 PMQuote from: Captain_Type on September 18, 2023, 11:06:21 AMIt appears that, as of version 27.9, the swatch book workaround no longer works.That will work until Adobe notices and changes it. Oops, they missed that one.
The copied books are still in the folder, but no longer appear in Color Books.
They still work in InDesign, but will it last?

We have a workaround for that - haven't updated Creative Cloud apps since 2021, Late 2012 iMacs running Mojave 10.14.6 can't handle the newer stuff.
On the upside, Pantone colours work seamlessly.
