To you illustrator software users to detailed analysis to share a good experience in prepress imposition.
The picture in the red range for the finished size, red, that is, bleeding, bleeding straightforward understanding is to cut the knife left, I will explain in detail how to add bleeding.
Second, illustrator make-up before the preparation work
1, start Adobe Illustrator.
2, open the file (Ctrl O), select all current objects or press CTRL a, text to curve. One of the reasons I like AI is because of its function of paragraph text, no matter how much length of text can be completed in a flash. Select the current file again after the warp, and if you find that CTRL shift O is available, prove that there is still text, and then turn all the text.
Tip: The curve is to turn the text into a path, the text is not transferred can not be out of the film, the film is a path to show the form.
3, about the CMYK and RGB mode description
AI general default document is CMYK, that is, any imported picture mode in the system will automatically convert RGB or other format of the picture to CMYK (including connected and disconnected pictures). Attention! AICS2 in the connection to the picture, if the RGB image is not converted to CMYK, the final storage for EPS will. It is highly recommended to tune in PS. View file information can be found under the Window menu.
Third, the imposition of the operation
Take the big 16 open for example, spell Big 8 open.
After finishing the above work, to confirm that the current file without the text and not connected to the map, not RGB map, you can begin to make-up work. The recommended storage file format is EPS
1, before the beginning of work, we first understand the common specifications of various sizes.
2, set the current document size is large 8K (285*420mm), which is to the size of the printing press.
3, do bleed bit. Large 16k finished product size for 210*285, left and right 3MM bleeding, after the size of the bleeding should be 216*291. Without affecting the whole graph effect, we can directly pull the bottom chart to add the bleed bit. Add after pulling out the wire to see if the word is cut, pay attention to the word distance is not too close to the cutting line.
Description: Look at the picture carefully. To show that I added color to the finished product size. Outside the color is the bleed bit, that is the part that needs to be cut off, all around is I pull the wire, the angle line.
4, in the same way to make another version of the bleeding bit. That's when we can make the make-up work. Use the align and distribute and Move dialog boxes to adjust the position on the imposition page.
① press shift F7 to open the Align and distribute Control Panel.
Description: AI novice often have objections to this tool, said that the CD in the alignment and distribution easy to use, with a long time veteran know that this palette is skilled, otherwise adobe development this why. At the time of operation, when two objects are selected, then press the CTRL key and then click on the object that you want to align, that is, which object is the datum, and then the corresponding alignment command, which is not very obedient, and you want to make it right.
* Skilled use of this tool makes it easy to align and distribute various objects.
② press Shift CTRL m to open the Move dialog box. There are two kinds of mobile modes, one is moving directly, the other is copying and moving. Direct move and copy movement is divided into four kinds of moving direction: up, down, left, right.
*horizontal: Move right. Remember, if you just move to the right, just set this one, the other is set to 0, the bottom one is the angle, don't worry about it. If you want to move to the left, enter a negative value. For example: I want to move 10mm to the left, then enter: -10mm. If you move to the right, then: 10mm.
*vertical: Move up. Remember, if you just move up, just set this one, the other is set to 0, the bottom one is the angle, don't worry about it. If you want to move down, you can enter a negative value. For example: I want to move down 10mm, then enter: -10mm. If you move up, then: 10mm.
*distance: function with horizontal.
* Skilled use of this tool can easily draw various types of corner lines.
5, press "F6" to pull out color palette, pull move slider or direct input value, adjust the contour color value of the angle line to c100,m100,y100,k100, finally add the color standard, input "CMYK", and adjust the color for c100,m100,y100,k100. The final imposition effect such as figure, and finally press the "Ctrl Y" look at the outline, see if there are no other unrelated white fill path, if there is no problem storage for the EPS format can be issued by the printing plant out of the Philippines.
Note: Film This check is also particularly important, this is the last process before printing. To carefully check every place on the phenanthrene, see not clear or do not understand where to open the manuscript in time to proofread, in the confirmation of the correct, you can print on the printing press.
Well, the above information is small make up to you illustrator this software users to bring the detailed experience of prepress imposition of all the content, you see the users here, small series believe that everyone is very clear now, Hope that the small series on the above to share the information you can bring useful help.
