4 Color Printing, native Xara files

[allthingsgraphic]

Hey out there,

Does anyone know or have any experience with 4 color printers that take native Xara X files? Service bureaus that do? Can't seem to get a response from Xara in UK on the subject. Anyone have experience with color shifting problems in this regard? Thanks in advance.

Hi, we're back from our Christmas and New Year break so Happy New Year everyone.
Allthingsgraphic, can you email direct (mick@xara.com) with details of where you are. We have an old list of service bureaus and I can give you details of any local ones. Also can you let me know who you contacted in Xara with your original question.
As far as color shifts are concerned, there should be no problems if you define colors in CMYK as these always get output without color correction. RGB and HSV colors are corrected on output so may color shift. Bevel, shadow and transparency effects are created within Xara X as RGB bitmaps and so may color shift. You will find more details in the Help file (Imagesetting, Points to note).
