• TIFF Downloader option has been eliminated in Evo 9.0 (Recommend migrate to Print Console or Xpo TIFF Downloader)

• No Direct output feature and recommend TIFF workflow

• No recent Mac OS Client support and provide 2 instances of Parallels Desktop application & Win 10 Pro licenses so customers can still use their Mac workstations to run Evo 9 Client.

• Preflight+ Callas will not be supported

• CPSI RIP option has been removed

CEPS File Formats

As of Prinergy Evo 8.1, CEPS file formats (for example, CT/LW) are no longer supported either as input to Prinergy Evo Workflow or as output generated from Prinergy Evo Workflow. 

ColorConvert

The following ColorConvert problems have been identified:

• Color matching certain files with transparent objects can result in significant changes in appearance. The problem is file specific and is dependent on the transparency blending modes applied, the object's color and the DeviceLink or ICC profile used to colorconvert the objects. The problem occurs because each graphic and image object used in the transparency group is color-converted separately. Blending of the objects in the destination color space changes the appearance.
  Recommendation: Flatten the PDF files. If your PDF files contain RGB data, it is highly recommended to Color-Convert this data prior to flattening. Please refer to Partner Place Answer ID 72326 for best practices and setting up a 2-Step refine.
  Note: Contone proofing cannot be used to predict this issue when colormatching is performed on final output.

• ColorMatch vector overprint handling of certain files with transparency groups that also use overprint management can generate unexpected results. The new objects generated by the ColorMatcher vector overprint handling process end up ruining the appearance. Contone proofing with raster overprint handling cannot be used to predict the problem with vector overprint handling used on final output. See the Prinergy help for detailed descriptions about the processing differences between raster and vector overprint handling.
  Recommendation: Flatten the PDF files. If your PDF files contain RGB data, it is highly recommended to Color-Convert this data prior to flattening. Refer to Answer ID 72326 for best practices and setting up a 2-Step refine.

• RGB Transparency Blend Color Space is not supported. Blend spaces should only be defined as DeviceCMYK.
  Recommendation: Change the blend space in the input file or set up a Preflight+ profile to detect and/or fix the condition.
