Tuesday, April 10th, 2007Are you are losing sleep because:
Elvis left the building some 30 years ago in August 1977?
Myf Warhust thinks Elvis serves fish and chips somewhere in Bendigo, Victoria?
Las Vegas MIX07 has been completely booked out?
Don't lose another minute of sleep!
The MIX experience is being transported and ReMIX'd at the Crown Promenade on 25-26th June 2007.
Remix Australia will be the first of its [...]
For the first time in 8 years…
Tuesday, March 27th, 2007For the first time in 8 years, Adobe has a set of major product releases, and I'm not there :-( Well, I don't count Acrobat 8 as major. 'Spose I should. I hardly use it anymore.
As I use Photoshop and Premiere Pro in production and anger daily (more than I ever did whilst working for Adobe!), I [...]
Photoshop CS3: Quick soft-edge Masking
Thursday, March 8th, 2007From a John Nack's post, through to a Business2.0 story.
From what I can see (but obviously not experience until it ships!) prepress people making masks (deep etches in AU magazine speak) are going to drool at this feature.
The Photoshop engineering team is going to have operators fall at their feet as gods: just like the healing [...]
Uncle Mike: Munge Brother Pioneers
Saturday, March 3rd, 2007I had completely forgotten about the Munge History of video production.
In the early 1990s, when Adobe Premiere was a new thing, and Quicktime overshadowed anything Microsoft had until at least 1995 - we created this video.
Starring Uncle Mike, Uncle Paul, Uncle Peter (Peter Harris) and myself - the DOSBOX (original Munge Car) and Mike's passion for [...]
Coldfusion developer?
Saturday, March 3rd, 2007OK, this a little cheeky. I never got the "programming in XML" thing of Coldfusion. Give me PHP anyday. Photo from Barcampsydney

Microsoft Windows Vista support with Adobe Applications
Friday, February 16th, 2007(Link thanks to John Dowdell) Bridging my old world to my new world, this document details the support for current Adobe applications with Microsoft Windows Vista. It is well worth a read, especially as Adobe products: Flash Player and the Adobe Reader are very common installs.
Summary: no Acrobat 7 support for Vista, only Acrobat 8: [...]
Adobe Mars and Print-ready PDFs
Thursday, December 7th, 2006Random question popped into my head whilst having a shower: does Adobe Mars, the new project to represent PDF as a packaged XML format, support PDF's strong print/prepress heritage.
Things like CMYK, colorspaces, high-dpi images, Postscript fonts, trapping settings (overprint/knockout) and the Crop/Bleed boxes. All those high-tech printing things.
The short answer is yes.
(testing process: InDesign document, [...]
XML Goo-i-ness Inside
Thursday, December 7th, 2006Microsoft pre-released their XAML-in-the-browser technology, WPF/e earlier this week. XAML inside.
XAML "smells" like the W3C's Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG). DOM-inside-a-DOM, Declarative animation, 2D graphics. XAML maybe not SVG, but it certainly tips its hat to SVG.
Adobe today pre-released their XML-in-a-PDF technology, Mars, for Acrobat 8. Essentially, Mars as a technology is presently delivered as [...]
Acrobat, Canberra, Microsoft
Monday, November 13th, 2006Having presented for Adobe over the past 8 years, I get a little touchy when someone attacks technical presenters. It's like being a part of a fraternity. Round up the wagons!
Demonstrating software: the collection of skillz are not taught by Toastmasters. Nor most Presentation Trainers. It is a set of unique techniques, that are generally [...]
Intel Mac: Acrobat 8 Distiller Performance
Tuesday, November 7th, 2006A comment from Dan on Distiller 7 vs. 8 Performance over on Accelerate your Mac! To summarise: a 463Mb .ps file Distills in a third of the time.
