Adobe alone, or Corel + 3rd party separation plugins, and even with plugins, you'll still have issues with the Corel route. I work very closely with someone who uses CorelDraw + Plugins and I can tell you all the issues he deals with at every step of the way. With Adobe CS2 or 3, you don't need Separation Studio either. Most of the professionals who insist on using Corel, are actually using plugins with it. Next after Adobe is of course Corel, but with Corel, you're still wasting time.
Their subscription model is unfortunate, but there's nothing else anywhere near as perfectly suited for all aspects of our work. I haven't heard a peep from anyone on the "inside" at AD.įor t-shirt work, if you're using anything other than Adobe, you're wasting time and effort. Realistically tho, I have no indication that it's even in the works. But it might get me thru until AD comes out with seperations in a future update. I think one of these might be a valid work-around although not exactly a smooth process. And also Im going to play with my idea of stacking the films on the screen (text + Raster image) just prior to exposing. Meanwhile, tonight, Im going to try what I just described and see if I can print a test screen. And the only thing I need to do it leave the text elements out for the Sep Studio operation and then insert the text back into the appropriate layer/color/screen/channel once I open the file in AD again. It looks, to my untrained brain, like the final product is ready to print thru accurip. I guess it turns it into an AD file just because of that little edit. * AFDesign File - This is after I label the layers of the EPS file. * EPS - This is what I get back from Sep Studio

* PDF - so you can see what the finished product is supposed to look like. In fact, I haven't been inside the box for years! But it has paid off big a few times in my life. But I tend to think outside the box.way outside the box. And I know things that work in theory don't always work in practice. Please forgive if Im babbling nooby nonsense. So there would be some tedious pasting/positioning involved. One problem I see with that is those vector elements need to also be on the white underbass screen. Of course, the vector elements (which is almost always text) would have to use one of the colors from the raster element to avoid having to do separate screens just for those elements. What I was thinking is that a person could just paste (a black version of) the vector elements back into the design on the appropriate color/layer. As for naming the swatches, I think I can do that but have not explored swatches much except for setting up a swatch palette for the design.

Might that include the page name you refer to?Īnywho.I am just doing seps for my 6 color manual press so Im pretty sure I can identify which color each layer represents.
SEPARATION STUDIO ERROR REGISTRATION
I notice there IS a check box in the AD print setup menu for inserting registration marks and "page information". But I haven't found names for the layers (I presume you are referring to the colors?) But they could actually be in there somewhere. And it's in "film" form (as opposed to color). There seems to be a corresponding layer for each color. Im still trying to figure out what exactly I do get back in AD when I import the eps created in Sep Stu. I am brand new to this tho so have yet to actually print anything thru it.
Thanks again for taking the time to help! Yes I do have Accurip Black Pearl. Might there be a way to use it to do seps? * What about Affinity Photo? I just got it the other day and have not had time to play with it yet. So now Im a little gun-shy about forking over another $200-300 clams for yet another app that may or may not do what I need. You have to take it back into your design app to add any vector elements back in and print it. It is basically just an expensive color tweaking tool that then issues the separations of only the raster elements. * Are there any suggestions for another app I can use to separate my designs done in AD? I shelled out $800 for Separation Studio and then found out that it doesn't really do the whole job of separating the designs.
SEPARATION STUDIO ERROR MAC
I just hate that Corel doesn't run native on Mac and of course I hate the price tag. * Does anyone know if it is in the works for a future update? If it's not even a pipe dream yet, then I am going to have to drop AD and start learning Corel. Im still hopeful that I can find a way to get around the issue until it becomes a feature. Had I known this about AD, I would not have chosen it as my design app. With so many people needing this seemingly simple feature, I find it mind-boggling that AD does not have this capability right out front.
SEPARATION STUDIO ERROR HOW TO
I am still working on coming up with some sort of work-around for how to do color separations in AD (as it appears many have tried in the past).
