CorelDRAW X4 :: Creating Gradient To Print Halftones With RIP Software

Nov 29, 2011

I've been using Corel X4 extensively for the last year to create screenprint designs for the company I now work for.  Although some of my designs are extremely complex, they are straight 1-5 colors, which I seperate for printing myself.

My boss has purchased RIP software which I have a vague knowledge of using, however, I have no clue how to actually create the design that would need a halftone print and therefore, have never used the expensive RIP software to print with.

Photoshop :: Print (save) Postscript Halftones Through RIP To Hi-rez TIFF Instead Of To Film?

Nov 25, 2012

I set up films for screenprinting for remote clents, so work at 35, 45 and 55 lpi a lot.  The best way, of course, is to save a pdf with postcript halftones and angles set correctly and have the client print to film through their RIP.  Most of my clients don't have RIPs and never will.  So I end up working with the bitmap/halftone settings in Phtoshop a lot.  It takes a long time.  If I could print photoshop or Illustrator seps to hi rez .tiffs (I know they have to be 1200 ppi, but we can work with that) through a RIP via a virtual printer or some other thing, it would save me a lot of time.

Photoshop :: Vector Halftones-Illustrator

May 7, 2006

This is really an Illy question directed to Sir Scott, but if anyone out there has some Illy prowess, please chime in. I'm referring to Scott's example in post #6 of this thread.

I can create a dot pattern, no problem, creating swatches, patterns, or using blends, but where I'm hitting the wall is the gradient effect. Tried opacity masks, but that doesn't cut it. One other question I have is, what technique would I use if I wanted an offset dot pattern, say 45°.

Illustrator :: Convert Halftones Into Opacities?

Feb 12, 2014

Is there a quick and easy way to convert halftones into opacities?
 
For example, if I have an element with a 50% black fill, is there a way (besides manually) to convert to a solid black fill with a 50% opacity? This is, of course, a simplified example. But consider artwork with a large variety of halftones that I would like to be scales of opacity instead. As you can imagine, it would be mindnumbingly tedious to have to adjust manually across the entire artwork.
 
The primary use of this would be in recoloring art containing halftones. If I select a different swatch that I want as the new base color, the entire artwork is recolored at 100%, instead of retaining the appropriate halftones. I know I could use the "Recolor Artwork" method, but it would be much simpler to simply have the halftones set as opacities and be able to select any color that strikes my fancy on the fly from the main color palette.

Illustrator :: Screen Printing And Controlling Size Of Dot Pattern In Gradient Halftones

Feb 22, 2013

I'm using A Mac OS 10.6.8, and Illustrator CS5. I do garment screen printing. In my designs I use a gradient, which needs to have the halftone dots controlled, and a certain size, to expose properly on my screens to then print. I can't seem to figure out how to adjust the frequency or LPI, and the angle so that they work. It still prints out as a seen on screen

AutoCAD Print / Plot :: Print Preview Thick Lines?

Jan 8, 2014

I received an Autocad file from another person, opened it with Autocad 2011 LT, and it looks fine. But when I go to print preview all the lines are very thick, making the detail of the drawing difficult to see. I've tried manually changing the lineweights but it has no effect on some of the layers. Is there an easier way to fix this other than recreating layers?

Photoshop :: Halftones And Setting It Up

Apr 26, 2004

how to set up a digital picture in Photoshop so it looks good printed. I am unsure how to do somethings in the instructions. These are the instructions.

Digital files: 300 dpi
Shadow Dot: 87
Highlight Dot: 9
85 Line Screen
Round Dot

Save picture as RGB file, adjust excess colors before convert to Grayscale.

I Know how to make round dots, and I kind of know how to adjust color, I also know how to convert to Grayscale. But everything else confuses me.

How do I set the Shadow dot and Highlight dot?

And where can I change the dpi?

And how do I set the Line Screen?

CorelDRAW X5 :: Printing Halftones With Postscript Printer

Apr 5, 2013

I have a new HP Laserjet M712 B&W printer to replace my aging HP 5000 printer.  I'm using X3 & X5 and have installed the HP Universal Postscript driver.  The printer is Postscript 3 emulation capable.  I have all the settings in the print dialog of Corel the same as the settings from my HP5000 printer, but the new printer fails to print halftones or "dots".  The halftone areas are still printing as a solid although I have my screen frequency at 45lpi. Is this a Corel issue or is it a Windows 7 problem, or some kind of user error.

Illustrator :: Automatically Print Data Set While Avoiding Print Dialog Box?

Aug 13, 2013

My company is exporting Postcards in Illustrator CS6. What we do is have a large data set imported into the Variables applet and use the Actions applet to record and export action and play it through the whole data set. We later combine the PDF files and print them as a batch.
 
My question is: Is there a way to create an action that will automatically print the data set while avoiding the print dialog box? It will make the process simple and move faster.
 
Also, what are your was of creating postcards? Catalogs?
 
How do people create a catalog with over 60 pages and keep the file size low?

Photoshop :: Do Not Get Same Results With Gray Scale Images Reproduced As Halftones?

May 21, 2012

I do not get the same results with grayscale images reproduced as halftones. While they are not true grayscale prints, the inkjet prints of grayscale images that I print from Photoshop always look good.

However when I see the final publication 20-30% of the halftone images will look dull. Is there some way to better visualize with Photoshop what a grayscale image will look like when printed in halftone?

AutoCAD Print / Plot :: DWF - Lines Plotting Too Heavy?

Jun 18, 2007

I am finding that my DWF files sent to the plotter are plotting with the linework being heavier than the same file sent directly to our plotter. These are just lines that should plot with a narrow width (ie walls on a floor plan) but they seem to be about twice the width and hence look "darker". Is there a setting that I am missing or some other way to get the lines to plot out thinner? Also, TTF fonts plot thicker in DWF. I've tried the various options in the DWF viewer when sending to the plotter, but none seem to work.

AutoCAD Print / Plot :: Grayscale Printing As Zig-zag Lines

Apr 15, 2013

I have PDF files created in AutoCad Arch 2010. When I print them some of the grayscale comes out as random zig-zag line pattern. When I veiw the PDF it looks fine. Images that do this are usually backgrounds of logos or shaded driveways / sidewalks. Some sheets out of a given set will print fine while others do this zig-zag thing?

AutoCAD Print / Plot :: Gray Lines In PDF Don't Merge?

Feb 18, 2009

Acad2004, Acad2008MEP
Acrobat Pro 6.0 and 8.0 -and- CutePDF Writer

Merge Lines in PC3 'Device and Document Settings Tab' does not work when creating PDF's - but the same CTB works fine if I print to (2) different plotters and (3) different printers. We use gray for backgrounds and use black thicker lines for detail work. For many years we have had to make sure to send the backgrounds (gray colors) to the back (draworder) before plotting. It is not practical to do this every time we plot. I'm willing to use another program to create PDF's but I haven't found one that works.

Revit :: How To Print Odd View On Sheet With Coloured Lines

Oct 14, 2013

In our company we currently model using coloured lines rather than the Revit desired black/white but we are more and more being asked to print the odd view on a sheet with coloured lines or a coloured 3d view.
 
As some of us have grown up on th edrawing board through to Revit we are so used to the coloured lines and feel that it gives the drawing depth and is so much easier to understand.
 
I have been trying every way to keep the coloured linies but using view templates. filters and phasing to enable me to change views quickly from coloured to black and then back but there is no easy quick transition especially as we can't use these to change standard linetypes.
 
Why Autodesk have made this such a difficult issue within revit... Now we can model in 3D, create schedules automatic yet Autocad is much better for plotting...

AutoCAD Print / Plot :: Parts Of Lines Not Plotting

Sep 12, 2013

I have a 3D drawing I created in AutoCAD 2014 64bit that is not printing properly.  When you look at a print preview everything shows up and looks like it should print properly.  However, when I print parts of lines are missing.  Example, I have a rectangle and only half of it prints.  Only two sheets out of eight do not print properly and all started as the same template.  I have tried everything as follows:

Checked the layers were set to plot. Made sure the lines were not on defpoints. Moved all the items that do not print properly to the front. I am not using a ctb or stb file.

I have purged. I have audited. I have tried copying to a new drawing and creating my viewports again. I tried changing the quality from Normal to Maximum. I tried printing to a printer, to Adobe PDF, to CutePDF, to DWGtoPDF.pc3, and to PDF995.  All of which gave me slightly different areas missing.

Computer:

Lenovo 7518D7U
Intel Core i3-2120 CPU @ 3.30GHz
4GB installed memory (3.83GB usable)
64bit system
Windows 7 Professional
Intel HD Graphics 2000
