I have to impose the pages to get them onto the plates. > What kind of RIP are you using? I do the whole thing (imposition and RIP) with ghostscript, pdftk, psnup and ps2pdf, plus a little driver program that I wrote to count pages and do the donkey work. > Apart from that, have you tried to outline all these poor > fonts? Maybe GhostScript wouldn't blow up then? I was just discussing that option with the folks who lay out the paper. They said that while it's something that they could do if they really have to, it really slows Scribus down. Since the only colour is on the front page, I'm thinking about a scheme to do the plate layout in two pieces, the front page and everything else. Then I just have to attach the front page to the back page on a plate layout at the end of the process. -- MELVILLE THEATRE ~ Real D 3D Digital Cinema ~ www.melvilletheatre.com www.creekfm.com - FIFTY THOUSAND WATTS of POW WOW POWER!
