Re: Scaling with self-defined anchor

Yosimo,

I will add, "Scale to Value" for page scaling and "Use only visible" for selection scaling to the feature requests for development.

Thank you,
John

Re: PDF Portfolio detection

I've created a dummy file to use, for now. That's better than taking any legal chances. I'll let you know what we figure out.

Re: PDF Portfolio detection

Arthur,

This has plagued me in the past, too. Could you please send me a file to play with? I will ask the dev team in the meantime.

Re: UTC date & date

Greetings,

Could you describe how your customer "needs" to see the time stamp formatted? I'm getting this result, which seems reasonable.

Re: Seeking information about impure grays and blacks in 'Remap color' action

Gustavo, Impure Black and Impure Grey are determined by checking if CMY or RGB values are approximately equal. Essentially, is the possible intent to create a gray or black which should be on a single K channel at output. This evaluation is not user-adjustable. Is there a specific use case that you ...

Re: Send to back has disappeared

There is a logo in the upper left of the menu bar. Is that from Quite Imposing? Is it possible that it's clashing with something?

Re: Inspector Palatte

I understand what you are saying. You would expect the C, M, Y, and K sliders to remain in their respective colors showing 0 to 100%. But, think of it as an active color picker, similar to a color wheel in some design applications. As you slide a gradient location indicator, all channels reflect the...

Re: Adjusting Crop Box Size

Greetings, This Action List requires a Trim box to be defined before running it. So, if your PDF has a trim and you need to make the Bleed, Crop, and Media boxes 0.5 inches larger than Trim, this will do it regardless of the original trim box size. Make any edits that you need to it. Let me know if ...

Re: First impression

Rob_Wh:

PitStop sees the rotation as 270 degrees. This has given me fits in the past when trying to impose. Certain software honors that rotation, others do not. So, I ran the action, "Zero Rotation Key" and checked the file again with BoardingPass.

Re: Variable folder paths

Greetings, I'm not sure if I'm too late to the game, but if I understand correctly, you are trying to direct a PDF to the appropriate hot folder for imposition based on the page count. Try using a combination of "Set hierarchy path" and "Archive hierarchy." 1) In the Set hierarch...
