I read somewhere that the newest PitStop has a Canva fixup action.

I thought it was A1


great on steaks!

Thanks for the sales heads up
I havn't even been watching the pitstop webinars
as they are for switch only lately
I may watch it while I'm working tho to see

The links were actually to the canva webisite not pdfs
I just knew If I did that, I would be responsible for their changes.
It's like 20 different files for various data
I feel good about it now! I will not work with Canva.
I can fix the canva pdfs no problem
Thanks guys!

oh yeah they sent pdfs!!

Looking at the Registration page, I think it's actually run by PrintIQ, and NOT Enfocus. (Partners)

Which means yeah - more than likely a sales pitch. I'll maybe still tag in, can always opt Out of all the email spam later...

Quote from: DCurry on April 16, 2025, 05:28:47 PMI haven't had any problems with Canva PDFs in general. They actually seem to respond well to the various ways to add bleed in PitStop.

One thing I've noticed is when trying to select an object in PitStop there is a phantom unfilled grayscale box on top of every object. Mames it tough to select things so I use wireframe view a lot to select the item I need. Sometimes I delete the phantom box and don't see that it hurts anything but makes me nervous anyway.

Same, although the Bleed Fixes for Pitstop have intermittent success - was hoping they'd keep improving it in recent update but I haven't done the 2025 yet so can't say.

Re: Those Phantom Boxes – Same. wtf they're even FOR is beyond me, I may try the "Remove irrelevant objects" Action and see if it catches them. Kinda doubt it, as they're ON the page and may be seen as necessary.

It's no big deal to get PDFs from the Canva links. What I don't like is trying to make any changes to their files because then who owns it? I just make the PDF and fix it with PitStop if needed, but if there are changes I just tell them it won't let me do it. 

I would try to push them to make the PDFs, especially if they have the paid subscription because that will output in CMYK. I only have the free account so can only do RGB. No big deal these days.

Them.

Although, exporting PDFs out of it isn't that hard, assuming that they've set up the pages correctly.
(Ha!!!!)

Prob can't watch live but I'll register for the Recording - thanks!

I'm guessing they'll "wrap" automation sales into the webinar as AI blah blah blah. Especially with PrintIQ as a partner-used their MIS previously and it can be heavily automated, even with Enfocus Switch but takes a TON of development & $$$.
