Re: Need advice re:4-color process printing preparation
If you have any sort of transparency on or over objects it'll force them to be bitmaps. Then in turn if you don't have a high enough DPI you'll see a degradation in quality. That could be the problem, but if you could attach the PDF I could give you a more accurate assessment.
You can create separations for your printer, just go into Print Options then Imagesetting and then Seperations and select to output separated. That is the best option if you can do it, as Xtreme has control over the separation process, but most printers I've dealt with have to have a composite PDF.
Not to sound too salesy, but Xtreme and now Xtreme Pro will offer you substantially better PDF results. Check out this page furtherdown, the red circles.
I'd start a revolution, if I could get up in the morning.
