Exporting large files for printer - pdf problems anyone?


Recommended Posts

Hello, 

 

I need to send large vector images (9ft high x 4ft wide) to a printer.

I export files as pdf, send them via dropbox, or sometimes hightail, and when he opens them the image seems to have the ground colour missing. And image looks transparent.

 

If anyone has any ideas to help me overcome this issue,  I would be most grateful.

 

Many thanks,

I have created a sample document with the same setting and when I preview the PDF it is display correctly.

 

Depending on the software that your printer is using to open the PDF file it could be altering the image. It may be worth checking with your printer if they can accept a PDF/X output as this was designed for the printing industry.

 

Regards,

Darren
