Not tested, but this is what an Adobe tech.
1.3 and print (separations) with Acrobat Pro. The only work-around seems to be to print to PostSript, distill it to Acrobat vers. The Viper RIP happens to be one of those devices that has an old version of PS2. Even though Adobe states that PS 2 is supported.

9) use some sort of voodoo code related to transparency features that will break older versions of PostScript 2 hardware. InDesign, IllustratorCS (probably all version back to ver.

This works great! There is an additional problem between the Viper RIP / AGFA AccuSet 1000 and Adobe software products that no amount of PPD editing will fix. The advantage of the imagesetter is its perfect black coverage as it uses a photographic process to create your image as. The advantage of the imagesetter is its perfect black. It is used for producing prepress output which is then used by our camera department to create plates for the presses. It can achieve tonal resolutions of up to 3000 dpi and spatial resolutions up to 200 lpi. It is used for producing prepress output which is then used by our camera department to create plates for the presses. This imagesetter can produce output on film or RC paper. Print Center will not recognize the PPD, and my Mac sees the RIP, but hangs it up trying to.

I have an Agfa Accuset 1000 Plus with a Viper RIP. We were afraid we would have to stop using the Accuset after all our Macs went to OS X, but this has saved the day! We have a very large image setter that we use with a Rampage RIP, but we still use the Accuset for small jobs. I realized the fact it wouldn't work with OS X meant it was a problem with the PPD file after all. Agfa said the bug was with Quark, and of course Quark said it was Agfa. The last updated PPD posted by Agfa was to fix a bug when using the imagesetter with Quark 4. It worked okay with Quark 6, but InDesign wouldn't print properly to it. Just what we needed! We have an Accuset 1400 Plus with built-in Star 400 RIP, and since switching to OS X we have had to set up the image setter as a generic postscript printer. However, I'm hoping that the company won't mind that someone cleaned up the files to make them work better under OS X.]. [ robg adds: I don't have an AGFA, so I can't test these new PPDs.Īlso, if AGFA asks I will have to remove the link, as these PPD files are under their copyright. Select 'Other.' And choose the correct PPD. Add the printer with the Printer Utility application. Download the PPDs here: Unzip the file and put them in the PPD folder in /Library -> Printers -> PPDs.
There are two versions, one to handle Adobe Illustrator page orientation correctly and a standard PPD (these PPDs are being used with Viper RIP PostScrip level 2). I've added the tags and updated the PPD's to work in OS X. This is because the original PPDs don't have the correct closing tags for each printer feature, so OS X won't display them. The settings that are available in OS 9 don't show up in OS X. To prove this, select Print and go to Printer Features. The original AGFA AccuSet 1000 PPDs are broken under OS X.
