Guys,
I'm in over my head (way in) with a client and would appreciate help if
anyone has advice to offer.
A client of mine are experiencing severe problems with PDF's run though a
SURE system on a RIP with a particular supplier.
This particular client generate the PDF's with PDF-LIB on a UNIX system.
They believe to have narrowed the probelm down to PDF's being "inverted" in
the encoding. These PDF's look normal in Photoshop and Acrobat and prints
fine through both applications. However one supplier uses a SURE system on a
RIP and some of the PDF's print black or greyscale (they are originally
color). This problem doesn't happen all the time, but on about half of all
files (all generated in the same manner - CMYK only). Occasionally there are
problems on other systems as well but these are rare.
I am somewhat in over my head here as I am not into PDF encoding (Ok I admit
I didn't know a PDF could be inverted at all), so I'm looking for two
things:
1. If anyone has a good fix or any ideas at all I'd love to hear it ASAP, as
I'll be with the client tomorrow where I can try things out.
2. Failing usable advice, my client needs a hardcore PDF guru that can deal
with this problem. The client is in Denmark so an European consultant would
be preferable. If anyone is interested drop me a mail. This is not a far in
the horizon job it's something that will need to be dealt with within days
rather than weeks...
