My institutions is considering the acquisition of a PostScript imagesetter. My investigations have narrowed it down to a few, which I shall not mention yet, but I am interested to hear of anyone's joys or griefs on late models. Specifically, I am interested in: 1. Incompatibilities with any systems or applications 2. Processing speeds (is the Linotronic 330 RIP the fastest?) 3. Imaging method (banding problems) etc. Please mail directly to me and I'll summarise after a respectable interval. Thank you -- John Wilkins, Manager, Publishing & Advertising, Monash University, Melbourne, Australia Internet: john@publications.ccc.monash.edu.au Disclaimer (in Quantificational Calculus):

Do you want volumes 1 through 10, or shall I start with volume 97 and work backwards? My advice would be to buy lunch for someone at a local service bureau or colour house. Better still ,do a couple. You'll get a broader range of experience. I have been working for only a year and a half at an output serivice bureuau and I'm already afraid my brain is going to burst. There is far too much to know to attempt to write it all. In spite of what I've just said, I'd be most interested to hear how other people sum up their experiences. Please drop me a line with the responses you receive. cheers adam asmith@questor.wimsey.bc.ca ======================================================================== Adam Smith Genius - Graphic Artist - Bad Mood Guy The Chameleon Papers Vancouver, BC CANADA "Human beings are a great disappointment to me and it doesn't help one bit that I am one."
