Must Corel Draw be used? Mac shop here...

Steve
I just checked their website, you will have to buy the Adobe Photoshop Importer. More info can be found here

It's like simple seps raster I guess...but online.

You don't have to use their inks, I have close enough matches here, except for maybe one or two colors.  I would imagine it does help though.

I was thinking about ordering the set, and then I forgot about the program.
You mind sharing what those "close enough matches are"? Pantone colors?

  I use Corel daily also and 99.9% of all the files I get are created in Illy.
I import a .pdf which my art department provides (they are at a different
location) and haven't had a problem yet (except when they forget to convert
fonts to lines).

There is no need to use Corel draw with this web based program. You drop the file in it it spits it back out then you bring it into the program that you want and print it out the way that you want.

 But  for your question  are people still using CorelDRAW absolutely. I use it every single day. Much more that I use illustrator or adobe Photoshop.
Thanks for clarifying this. And by no means did I mean to make it sound like CorelDraw is some fringe program, as a matter of fact I looked into it before.But where we are all I get is art for and created within Adobe Illy and unless I can bring in .ai files into CorelDraw and be able to edit them 100% I would not consider buying CorelDraw.

I'm the same, I didn't like CD when they ported it to Mac many years ago, as I was just too used to Freehand and Illustrator. I very, very rarely see a CD file, I'll bet it's been a couple of years now. That seems a little odd to me, as it certainly produces a good product...

I made a mistake once; I thought I was wrong about something; I wasn't

The Standard Sim Process colors are in the general ballpark of:

Lt Blue: 311c
Dk Blue: 286c/293c
Green: 361c/375c
Purple/Magenta: 213c/rhodamine/239c
Yellow: 102/107/109c
Red: 186/032/warm red/

Its about being in the general color space and fine tuning from there.

The inks they sell may be more translucent than normal pantone mixes as well.
Been in the industry since 1996.  5+ years with QCM Inks.  Been a part of shops of all sizes and abilities both as a printer and as an Artist/separator.  I am now the Ink and Chemical Product Manager at Ryonet.

I am going to lock this thread on the posters request. He is unable to respond (not allowed by the admins) and has voiced his concern that some of the answers or posts are severely incorrect and that it is misrepresenting his product/knowledge/IP or so on. Anybody with questions should reach out directly to Thomas Knight (Advanced Artist) for clarification. If you need his contact info, please PM me directly.

thanx,

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!
