Symptoms

The customer has high-resolution continuous tone scans (8-bit, not a Copydot) that, after using color image resampling, display "jagged" edges. This does not happen if the customer disables resampling during Normalize. The problem is visible both on PDF and high resolution Spectrum proofs and plates. Photoshop resampling works fine.

Cause

The Adobe image resampler sometimes doesn’t do an ideal job.

Solution

We have the ability to activate the Kodak-built resampler.

1. From the Start menu, select Run.
2. Type regedit and click OK.
3. Locate HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/Creo/Araxi/Settings/Default/ENOR/<name of JTP>.
4. Right-click DownSampleImagesInNormalizerServer and select Modify.
5. Set a value of 0.
6. Stop and restart the optimizer JTP to activate the option.

Note: This option causes a slowdown in performance (estimated at 10% to 15%).
