This document contains scripts for several flash demonstrations which will appear on our website.
What to record
---------------------
The bold text is the introductory question the user will click on, and need not be recorded. The text between [ and ] indicates what is happening in the demo, and need not be recorded. We plan to splice in the sound into the flash demo. Please assume there is a pause anywhere you see a [Flash: directive], as the demo will generally take longer than your words do. For example:
…To select one or more slugs to include in a document:
[Flash: Show features panel, substantial pause here during actual demo]
and to enter the safety, trim, and bleed…
Desired ‘Feel’ to Recording
---------------------------------------
Our products sell to large corporations and advertising agencies. We are trying for a professional, friendly, educational tone. The tone should not be ‘sales-y’ or excessively enthusiastic, like you might hear in a radio spot. The goal is for the speech to be slightly more articulate/modulated/inflected than usual, but close to that of a friend helping you understand something.
Desired Format
----------------------
MP3 by email or download.
Timeframe
---------------
We are looking to have the finished recording within 2 weeks, if possible. Mar 08, 2006 19:29:07 (GMT -05:00) Eastern Time (US & Canada) Mar 09, 2006 00:00:00 (GMT -05:00) Eastern Time (US & Canada) No (click here to learn more about

How can we consistently display workflow status and pre-flighting information in our documents and proofs?
[Flash: Display Overall Mechanical]
Organizations with complex creative workflows, including advertising agencies and corporate marketing departments, often display workflow status and pre-flighting information in each document, outside the trim. This display area is called a slug:
[Flash: Zoom in on Slug]
The slug often contains workflow status information, like the job number, client, or the team members who are working on the job:
[Flash: Zoom in on workflow information]
It also displays information about the size of the document, its safety, trim, and bleed, and sometimes fold information:
[Flash: Zoom in on live/trim/bleed]
Finally, it may contain information about the contents of the document, such as the inks, links, and fonts that the document contains. This information is used for pre-flighting.
[Flash: Zoom in on automatic information]
Triple Triangle’s Slug Cubed, available for Adobe InDesign and Illustrator, automates the process of creating and maintaining slugs. Artists can use the New Mechanical dialog to set up everything about their document in a single place:
[Flash: Show File > New Mechanical Menu, then New Mechanical Dialog]
The Features panel allows you to select one or more slugs to include in a document:
[Flash: Show features panel]
Next, you can enter the live, trim, and bleed in the document setup panel:
[Flash: Show document setup panel]
Finally, you enter workflow-related information that is specific to your organization’s slug in the Workflow Info panel:
[Flash: Show workflow info panel being populated]
When the you click finish, a new document is created that contains the selected slugs, populated with the workflow and document size information that you entered:
[Flash: Zoom in on workflow and sizing info]
Slug Cubed automatically updates the slug with information about the contents of the document anytime you save, print, or export:
[Flash: Show save]
Common automatically-updating fields include document name and path,
[Flash: Spotlight name]
the fonts used,
[Flash: Spotlight fonts]
the inks used with color chips,
[Flash: Spotlight chips]
and the linked graphics, including information about their effective resolution and color space,
[Flash: Spotlight links]
Slug Cubed allows an administrator to design slugs in InDesign and Illustrator, using any of their native layout features. The administrator can customize the appearance and content of your slugs to reflect your corporate identity, or that of your customers.
[Flash: Display a few example slugs]
By automating slug maintenance, Slug Cubed can help you to consistently display workflow status and pre-flighting information in your documents and proofs, saving time and ensuring that the contents of your slugs are accurate.
How can we consistently automatically include crop and fold marks in our documents and proofs?
Organizations that create printed advertisements and direct mail, including advertising agencies and marketing departments, often need to see the exact position of the live, trim, bleed, and fold marks onscreen and in their proofs.
[Flash: Show Crop Fold Marks]
Crop Cubed creates crop and fold marks for you. The artist no longer needs to mentally compute mark positions, then manually position marks on the page. You begin by using the New Mechanical dialog to setup everything about your document in a single place:
[Flash: Show File > New Mechanical Menu, then New Mechanical Dialog]
First, you select whether to include crop and fold marks in the document using the features panel:
[Flash: Show features panel]
Next, you can enter the live, trim, and bleed in the document setup panel:
[Flash: Show document setup panel]
If folds are selected, you can specify a logical fold type, like a “C” or Gate fold:
[Flash: Show folds panel]
Or, you can use the Custom Folds panel to manually enter, or adjust, fold positions:
[Flash: Show custom folds panel]
In InDesign, Crop Cubed can automatically reverse the folds on the second spread, making it easy to lay out the back side of the piece.
Crop Cubed also makes it easy to resize documents. If you need to resize the mechanical, you can choose the File > Mechanical Setup menu, and adjust the document size, or anything else about the document:
[Flash: Show Mechanical Setup menu, then document setup panel];
Mechanical Cubed automatically updates all the components of the document to the new size, including the document itself, the crop and fold marks, and any affected information in the slug:
[Flash: Show page updating, then zoom in on the slug]
Crop Cubed can help you to maintain crop and fold marks in your documents more efficiently and to ensure that your marks are accurate.
How can we automate communication between our studio artists and the upstream departments that order jobs?
In most large creative organizations, upstream departments plan creative work, then communicate it to a design team that builds the production-ready collateral. This communication often involves a hand-written piece of paper, sometimes called a Job Order Form or Spec Sheet:
[Flash: Show job order form with handwriting]
In some environments, this information is transmitted in an Excel spreadsheet:
[Flash: Show excel spreadsheet example]
or in a Filemaker database or a Web-based job system:
[Flash: show example filemaker database]
Regardless of its form, the job order usually contains information about the size and layout of the collateral.
[Flash: Zoom in on live, trim, and bleed]
It also contains workflow-related information like the job number or the name of the artist who will work on the job.
[Flash: Zoom in on workflow information]
When a design artist receives the job, she uses information from the form to create the document, set up the crop and fold marks, and populate the slug. This process is tedious and error prone.
Job Spec Cubed enables upstream departments to enter job information into a PDF form, spreadsheet, or database. The artist can then create the document - including slug, crop and fold marks – without retyping any of the information.
In this example, we will focus on automating your workflow using a PDF form.
[Flash: Show PDF Form]
Triple Triangle can help you create a PDF form that looks just like your existing paper form. Upstream departments enter information into the PDF form using Adobe Acrobat, then save it to the job folder or email it to the artist.
[Flash: Show typing in PDF form]
When you receives the PDF form, you can choose “File, New Mechanical from Job Spec” and select the PDF file.
[Flash: Show File Open]
Triple Triangle’s Job Spec Cubed extracts the job setup information from the PDF, and uses it to populate the New Mechanical dialog, automatically selecting the correct slugs and marks for the job in the features panel,
[Flash: Show New Mechanical Dialog, Features panel]
Automatically sizing the document correctly in the document setup panel,
[Flash: Show Document setup panel]
Automatically configuring fold marks, if they are specified,
[Flash: Show Folds Panel]
And automatically populating workflow-related information in the slug, like the client name or job number.
[Flash: Show Workflow info panel]
When you click Finish, the document, slug, crop and fold marks are created and populated, often without requiring you to manually enter any information.
Triple Triangle’s Job Spec enables you to automate communication between upstream departments and your designers, thereby speeding work and eliminating costly errors.
How can we ensure our documents conform to required branding guidelines?
When advertising agencies and corporate marketing departments create collateral, they often need to ensure that it conforms to branding guidelines. A typical piece must use fonts, colors, and logos that are associated with a particular brand.
[Flash: Show example collateral]
In a complex piece of collateral, verifying that the content satisfies these guidelines is a tedious process. An artist typically clicks on each piece of content and text, and inspects various palettes and dialogs to ensure that the content conforms to the guidelines.
[Flash: Show tedious clicking and navigating to various palettes].
In addition to being tedious, this process does not work when inspecting a printed proof.
Color Spec Cubed allows you to easily generate callouts in your document that reveal key properties of its content. You can generate callouts for an entire document or a selection by clicking a button. Each callout includes an arrow pointing to an element of the document it describes, and information about the fonts, colors or linked graphics for that element.
[Flash: Show callouts being generated]
For example, this callout shows the color, stroke, font family, and size associated with text in the document.
[Show an example callout for text]
Callouts can also show the name, color space, scale, effective resolution and spot colors for a linked graphic.
[Show an example callout for a graphic.]
Color Spec offers many options for eliminating or consolidating duplicate callouts, and for ensuring that the callouts only show relevant, useful information. Here, several duplicate callouts have been consolidated into a single callout with several arrows.
[Show a callout with multiple arrows]
You can easily re-arrange the callouts. When you reposition a callout, its arrow automatically moves with it.
[Show a callout being dragged.]
However, callouts are nothing more than text frames. You can easily add custom comments to them:
[Show typing in a callout.]
You can print or export callouts just as you would any other text frame. You can easily print them to review them as part of a proof.
Color Spec Cubed can help you to to ensure that your documents conform to branding guidelines more quickly, thoroughly and accurately.
