No transform Offset Rotation Figure 2 Transforms and possible image clipping Note: The extents and transforms do not affect the raster that you can view in Roam. They are a record of how the following stages of the printing workflow should handle the raster and the physical images in order to achieve a correct product after printing, cutting, and folding. AG50238P3 Rev. 3 9 1 CIP3 Output Plugin The CIP3 PPF specification defines all geometry with respect to an origin at bottom left of the relevant coordinate system. However, the specification does not clearly define what is the "bottom left" of a plate, what is the imageable area of a press, and so on. You may encounter some conventions that are specific to the way in which various vendors have interpreted the specification. Note: All Width, Height and Offset values must be entered in points. Width and as Job Select the as Job check box to use the width set in the job. Alternatively, to set a fixed value, deselect the check box and enter a value in the Width text field. The value set here is ignored if you select the as Job check box. Height and as Job Select the as Job check box to use the height set in the job. Alternatively, to set a fixed value, deselect the check box and enter a value in the Height text field. The value set here is ignored if you select the as Job check box. Left Offset and Center Select this Center check box to center the image horizontally on the film. Alternatively, to set a fixed offset, deselect the check box and enter a value in the Left Offset text field. Note: Figure 2, page 9, shows the effect of positive values for left and bottom offsets. You can also enter negative values. Bottom Offset and Center Select this Center check box to center the image vertically on the film. Alternatively, to set a fixed offset, deselect the check box and enter a value in the Bottom Offset text field. The value set here is ignored if you select the Center check box. 10 AG50238P3 Rev. 3 1. 4 Filename setup Rotation Select one of the rotations available in this list. The default is 0 (zero) degrees for no rotation. Mirror Select one of the choices available in this list. The default is None for no mirroring, but you can choose Horizontal or Vertical for cases that require it. For example, you may require mirroring where outputting the image emulsion-down. In each case, the process the controls are describing is the one that places the image on the item that is the title of the subsection. For example, the settings in the Plate subsection control how the film is treated in arriving at a position on the plate. At the end of the Film, Plate, Press, and Paper sections, there are some controls that are more general. Work Style This control sets the production of single or double-sided sheets, and the relationship between the front and back of double-sided sheets. [. . . ] Instead you could use the Recombine preseparated jobs check box (in the Edit Style dialog box) so that you can use the same jobs for film or plates and CIP3 generation. Style (Color generation) The options are in the Style list in the Separations, Screening & Color section of the Page Setup dialog box: · · CMYK Composite (Pixel) CMYK Composite (Frame) These choices control the layout of the data inside the CIP3 file. The CIP3 plugin will always create files with CMYK data in them, even if you send only a single separation. (The unused separations are empty, so with run length compression enabled they are very small. ) The CMYK Composite (Frame) setting is readable by more applications that read PPF files. Note: If you use the Separations Manager (by clicking the button alongside the Style list), you can copy the CMYK Composite (Frame) style and edit it to include spot colors either by name for specific colors or by using the existing setting (Other colors in job) to include all spot colors found and not named elsewhere in the list. Take care when you do this to properly duplicate the settings in the separations style for the page setup that sends output to your real imageset- 18 AG50238P3 Rev. [. . . ]
