Is their something else I can use, or is there a acrobat reader lite, or a plug in for acrobat reader Leonardr - No we dont use pre-separated files. We dont need all the functions of acrobat pro, just want to see separations (+ Overprints).I also think if we could have a view of pdf's on the shopfloor for the managers.this also could be a benefit, maybe as a QC check for checking no finishes have been s just about sharing information.Īnother example.we have a library of foil dies, all jobs are sent to this die library team via email as PDF, they then look at the job and restore all existing foil dies for our library, ready for for the production process.but currently they cant view all the separations with out pro. Our speciality is special finishes on high end products, that need a great deal of thought to manufacture the product, ie foil, emboss, vanishes, special colour.if we printed 4col brochures, i would just use reader for account managers, then use our Prepress system to sort this rest out.

The account manager cant view the PDF with separation, unless they have acrobat Pro.I actually think because they (account managers / salesman) dont see the PDF, they actually dont take ownership of the job aswell but I feel the initial brief on the job has been lost, as PDF come straight into PrePress and misses out the account managers (and salesman to a point).

I think with PDF's has changed alot of things for print in a good way. Let me explain further.many Years ago before PDF's, New Jobs where supplied with a iris/chromalin from a repro house, with overlays for finishes etc.
