Is a website truly part of the internet if it doesn’t contain crazy comments from some weird lunatic? In an effort to make this site fit in with the rest of the web, this page links to various rants by yours truly.
- Grumbling about the fact that Kindle e-readers hide book covers
- An old Prepress Pete cartoon makes a come-back.
- There is some logic in getting all worked up over the Kindle reading experience while reading the biography of Steve Jobs.
- In a rambling tale I try to prove there is some relationship between three silly pictures I accidentally stumbled upon.
- I have always disliked iTunes but this feeling turned to pure hatred mid 2010 when it took that application 18 hours to back-up my iPad.
10 more things I could rant about
There is no shortage of things that annoy me. Here is a list of 10 of them:
- Apple mice
- Images that ‘look fine on screen’
- ‘Small’ changes to a job that you know will take ages to finish
- People who pretend to love the smell of paper
- People who claim applications or computers are broken just because they don’t know how to work with them
- Sales guys and managers who need a detailed technical explanation about something but who never take notes
- Internet lists about 10 things this-or-that
As a “seasoned” Prepress/Colormanagement person
CANVA free version must be more difficult than advertised as I can receive the same file over and over with corrections and it comes in differently everytime!
1-all image or some vector/some image
2-RGB with no ICC source profile and/or RGB with Google/Skia/30characters? and sometimes cmyk
3-No Bleed; no trim box; crop marks as an image; bleed by making the file size larger than quoted.
We’re seeing PDFs generated from CANVA more frequently and 99% of the users don’t know how to set up the document and/or make a PDF. I downloaded the free version to try to see what this application can and can’t do. No wonder people are having problems.
