Don Brown - Almine Rech Gallery

Don Brown has been photographing his sculptures for many years.

At his current exhibition in Brussels he is exhibiting his photographs as artworks in their own right.

Don chose Idea Digital Imaging to make the prints.

Don Brown Fine Printing

The images were printed on Hahnemühle Photo Rag using Epson's 10 colour HDR inks. Custom ICC profiles were built using ArgyllCMS.

It was a pleasure meeting and working with Don... more than a decade after we'd first encountered his images while working on the film separations for the Spiritualized album and singles in 2001 & 2002:

Adobe Illustrator Overprints

When you're making FOGRA contract proofs of complex packaging jobs, overprints can be a real problem.

The file looks fine on screen and OK as a PDF in Acrobat -- until you switch on the overprint preview and the text and logos disappear from view :(

Unfortunately, Adobe Illustrator doesn't offer a simple fix. You have to hunt out all of the overprinting objects and uncheck the overprinting in the Attributes panel. That's OK if you've only got a couple of layers to work on, but a nightmare on complex multi-layered artworks.

A quick and dirty fix is to save the Illustrator artwork as a PDF with the Compatibility set to "Acrobat 4 (PDF 1.3)". This allows you to choose to ignore the overprints in the Advanced section of the PDF dialogue.
