Some of them should get into paper manufacturing...since they know so much about the qualities of paper. :laugh:

they are. They sell xerox paper. It's expensive, of course. One will never know if it is actually the solution.

It's not. They gave us a couple cartons of Xerox cover stock to make up for "problems" and the crap jammed so I stopped using it.

Obviously you weren't using it correctly.

Xerox paper is best used to make a "Jump to Conclusions" mat
"There's been a lot of research recently on how hard it is to dislodge an impression once it's been implanted in someone's mind. (This is why political attack ads don't have to be true to be effective. The other side can point out their inaccuracies, but the voter's mind privileges the memory of the original accusation, which was juicier than any counterargument ever could be.)"

Should say, "Lose," but someone made a typo.

I am not in the office, we have a VCT floor in prepress and they're mostly green squares. We don't jump to conclusions, we just assume the worst.

Yesterday we had a litho-gnome bite us. (or would this be a digi-litho-gnome?)

We received Indy files from customer. I generate the PDF for our 700 (w crops and bleeds) and printed out a proof for the job jacket and put in the "digital press bin" to be done.
Production manager runs job in the afternoon, imposes it using the Fiery feature, prints one out for me to color check, which I approved. This is a 1,400 2 sided run and about a 3rd of the way in someone notices odd art on the back side. I overhear conversation as I'm burning some metal, walk into the room and see the mysterious and questionable art. I'm like, "WTF is that?", they were asking the same question. STOP THE JOB!

check proof I ran out earlier, it's not there
it's not on screen when viewing the PDF
it's not in the illustrator file (the background image) even in keyline
we deduced  :laugh:  that it happened during the impose, but how? why?

Have any of you seen anything like then when using the Fiery Impose "feature".
maybe the stray graphic was a feature and we should have let it run.  :laugh: :laugh:

Nice. Was quark involved in any way?

On the Creo I get transparency stitching when using imposition. But only sometimes.  :laugh: And 1-up prints fine.

I LOVE PREPRESS.
