Yes, we've won our share of awards, and yes, I've tested stuff and read the scientific papers, but ultimately take everything I say with more than just a grain of salt! So if you are looking for trouble, just do as I say or even better, do something I said years ago!

Haha.  You know, thats a pretty sweet CMYK job if I ever did see one. I was impressed by the outcome.  Sometimes with CMYK, jobs, you never know. I think this art and color really works for CMYK and it's on a Khaki color to boot with an underbase. Shazam! ;D

I still maintain that the new RIP is to blame for it. The dot size is right on, so everything printed the way you separated it. Must be the first time I did not have to sample it, it was right from the 1st print!

That's impressive stuff Pierre.  I'm gonna shoot you an email about your RIP and how you have it networked.

Very Nice. Changing the purple to blue helped it even more. IMHO.

What did I miss...what rip are you using?

ahhh, that's just the lighting, color remained the same.

I switched to Film Maker and it is very impressive!

Am I correct in understanding that you've been printing for only 2 years?

50% of the time I'm 100% right.

Nah, that's just Dan spreading vicious rumors. It's been two and a half now!

Nice job Pierre  8)
I love cartoony 4CP work, allows room for fudging and is very production friendly. It's the facial tones and photo reproduction 4CP that gets my panties in a bind.

yeah, with you there. Anything that is color correction forgiving is easy with 4CP. Skin tones are certainly not one of those!

I think this is the first time that I put a 4CP print on a press and got the exact same result as the artwork without any sampling or changes. It just went on and after about a dozen test prints we were ready to go! Wish that happened more often . . .
