Re: Crop Image to the Clip Mask isn't exact

Hi Freddy, Thanks for the reply! That's interesting how the clipping mask works with images. I didn't know how that worked. It explains some "weird" behavior that I was seeing with images out of Indesign, in the relationship between the clipped image and the mask (this is with PDFs made st...

Crop Image to the Clip Mask isn't exact

Hello, When I run the "Crop Image to the Clip Mask" it doesn't crop the image to the clipping box but leaves a little "overhang" of the image that's being clipped off. I use these settings: crop image to clip mask.png Here's what it looks like if I flip to the wireframe view: Ima...

Re: Node Editing In Pitstop with Coordinate Palette

Thanks for checking on that for me. I just started at this new print company and occasionally we have to edit customer PDFs "by hand" --with no possibility of fixing in Indesign or Illustrator -- and I was testing the limits of the path editing tools to see what can be accomplished. In the...

Re: Node Editing In Pitstop with Coordinate Palette

Thanks for the reply! I'm still having trouble though. When I highlight the node, the Info palette displays the cooridates of the node, but none of the fields are user-fillable. I can't seem to alter the coordinates. When I try the "position" tab (the far right tab at the top,) it changes ...

Node Editing In Pitstop with Coordinate Palette

When editing a path's node in Pitstop, using the edit path tool and highlighting just the node, is it possible to move a selected node by a fixed value? Like let's say I need to move it 0.125". Can I use the Info palette to move only the node? If not, is there a trick that we can use to get aro...
