Hi Brian, if this were a normal - or 'real world' senario - that is, where both the green and salmon were inks on white paper - it would be very very odd to be trying to calculate or simulate what that salmon would look like if overprinted over the…

btw - what method do you use to determine neutral density and opacity ?
Not sure I will disagree in general terms - but they do not always have to be trapped - only if the boundaries intersect with anything.
I never di get an answer to the question "will this be actually printed with 5 colors (CMYK with PMS 185 ) - or is that the 'design' and they are actually printed digitally (that is, they are simulating the Pantone 185)

So, we all tried color management, hated it, all but ignored and walked around the elephant in the room and have settled on Device Link Profiles - it that the best we can do ? For the color scientist inside you - check out this online CIE Standards Compare tool

Paul Edwards said… - Hi Michael,
I am really and seriously curious.....
How do you ever get any actual work done in between all of your social networking and maintaining all of your sites shown below? We are looking into a wide variety of socila networking possibilities. Many seem to have possibilities, but others seem like just people with egos wasting time trying to engae and waste other people's time. Can you help me understand if there is some kind of business value here or if this is all just a fun hobby for non business hours?
Thanks,

You didn't need to mention Mr. Edwards by name or his company, since anyone reading posts on the board would have known who you were talking about. Why not take your issue directly to Mr. Edwards and engage him in debate instead of attacking his credibilty via the method you chose. Instead of being a stand-up guy you chose to throw a cheap shot. Maybe that works in your world but it doesn't work elsewhere.

- Mr. Jahn:
I read your post regarding Paul Edwards' message regarding digital print and the environment. I don't know where you come off as a self-appointed expert on all things green, but I can tell you that the tone of what you posted was "yellow" in character and "brown" for content.
First of all, you have no business criticizing Mr. Edwards. His company has taken many initiatives toward the very thing you so piously preach about. His company is 100% wind powered, for starters. Second, he has taken very real steps to become part of the solution we ALL seek in this area. For you to throw dirt on his statements without having the character to engage Mr. Edwards directly shows me what you are made of.
You are not the green police, sir. There are as many opinions and solutions to renewable resources and green initiatives as there are stars in the sky. A lot of us prefer to work with real-world solutions, instead of bashing anyone who doesn't measure up to their PC-fueled idea of what is green. As Kermit the Frog so eloquently put it, "It's not that easy being green."
So in closing, I strongly suggest you offer Mr. Edwards an apology for your back-door sniping. And while you're at it, might I suggest you put out your cigar, as you are polluting our airspace.

- Michael,
I just want you to know that YOU are not the GREEN POLICEMAN!
You are entitled to YOUR opinion, but BACK OFF of throwing dirt on mine.
FormStore and Kodak are BOTH environmental leaders in our industry and I do not need you radical left wing tree hugger attitude bashing me or my postings on Print Junkie.
Kodak Dimensional print is new, exciting and environmentally friendly, so you can tack your crude print junkie response and compost it!

Ray,
You are correct. I have found a few ways to educate prospects however one area I focus on early in the conversation is that I'm not suggesting they spend more but rather determine what they are spending and if there is a value that can be track…
