Correct me if I'm wrong - but I don't think you can tile a shape cut job. The cut path of the tile takes precedence over the cut path in the file. We use Phoenix (I think Griffin's tiling engine is similar) and I haven't been able to get it to work without using a work-a-round. I essentially create ...

Hi gregbowers

I've been going through that last couple of weeks. In my case, I found downgrading modules worked for me.
I think some of the newer modules are incompatible with the node runtime that's installed with switch?

I might have a bit of a hack to get crop marks onto a layout (I can't test it on Griffin, but it works In Phoenix and they both have the required options). It basically involves playing around with the bleed and spacing options on the artwork. You need to setup your PDF with the required bleed and c...

Thanks rhd_ole

This is what I ended up doing.

Looks like it's a hard limit in Griffin. Link to the docs where it mentions it. https://docs.tilialabs.com/griffin/userguide/creatingajob/#add-artwork I know in Phoenix it's 50 max per project, but you can get a module that increases it to 2000. Not sure if there is something similar for Griffin whe...

Is it possible to change the maximum length of roll media that Phoenix nests on via switch?
We have certain situations where we want control of the length of the printed roll to aid finishing/cutting operations.

@loicaigon I do know about the object browser, and I can identify xobjects. I was more thinking of a way to view an xobject in an isolated window where you could perform profiles, actions or custom edits, then when saved would update all instances of the Xobject in the original document. Kind of lik...

We've had some issues with jobs that were exported out of Phoenix - which I believe use Xobjects extensively. Some problems where fixed by making sure the rips were using the latest version of the Adobe PDF Engine. Older versions of the pdf engine were ignoring the nested layout all together and onl...

We often have this issue - a lot of the pdf viewers that our customer have don't show things like overprint. How I get around it often depends on the particular artwork. Sometimes I'll rasterise the artwork to simulate the overprint of a white spot. If the art is more complex I'll have 3 versions of...
