if I had to I could produce a full separation to halftone RIP fully automated with no tweaking or adjustment - just print out the films - that would work better on press than anything a manual professional method would employ unless it were the same as the automations I use (but take a lot longer and have to remember all the steps manually), and aside from the time it takes to process perhaps a minute or 5 minutes depending on the computer resources and image-size and color-blend method. With my own separation methods it is more like this.
1 year = 52 weeks x 5 days workweek = 260 work days x perhaps 8 sep jobs a day if doing 1 every hour for 8 hour shift = 2,080 x 1 hour each - So you waste 2,080 hours a year doing something that the separation program could take care of for you? (And then, times 5 years of using the program, so 2,080 x 5 = 10,400 hours, or 10,400 separations in 5 years?) I run seps all day long that I just click 1 button and take the films to screens and press. I just want to post this here so others may benefit.Ĭlick to expand.You have to spend an HOUR tweaking out color separations. I will try and download their trial version tonight. With UltraSeps ($400), it looks like a great software, but I do not know much about it. However, SimpleSeps Rip and SimpleSeps Raster ($350+)are built for CorelDraw and Tom has great tutorials online. But the good thing is that I can use this for PS/AI and CorelDraw. I am leaning on Sepration Studio ($800), but I am hesistant to pull the trigger because of the price. If I can separate colors within 1 hour with one of these programs, I will be happy. I have watched multiple videos using Photoshop to separate colors, but it could be very time consuming.
But now, I want to jump into simulated process printing. I mostly print graphics with simple or no halftones. I also have PS and AI., but dont use it as much. Note: I mostly use CorelDraw for my graphics and I own Accurip. I hope somebody here can share a little bit of knowledge on which product is the best one to use for me. The price range for these products are from $350 - $800. I couldn't decide on which color separator software to buy.
