• Page Boundary – Toggle a red line showing the page/image boundary of the proof.
• Signature – Overlays the signature used to de-­‐impose the job/page if it was submitted for de-­‐imposition. This is
only enabled when viewing a de-­‐imposed job/publication.
• Deimposed Pages – De-­‐impose a job submitted as an imposition on-­‐the-­‐fly into separate pages, defined by the
signature attached to the job and return it to its original state. (see RIPMonitor – Submit as Imposition for
more information).
• Back Page – Display the reverse (back) page through the page currently loaded as if the final print was being
held up to light. The Back Page Opacity setting in the Press Settings controls the amount of show through.
• Spread – View the spread of the selected page, for example, pages 2 and 3 as a spread.
• Show Channels – Opens a simplified Channel Viewer touch console interface, featuring a coloured and labeled
button for each process and spot ink channel. Selecting each button will toggle the ink channel on or off. If the
Channel Viewer (see SoftProof) is open, the channel’s on/off state will be reflected in the panel. Touch the Main
button in the Mode Bar to return to the Main screen.
• Ink Keys – Opens the Ink Key Viewer for the current image on the main SoftProof screen and a set of controls
for it on the Touch Console. Once settings such as Ink Weight and Sheet Placement have been set in SoftProof
(see InkKeyViewer), the touch controls offer the ability to easily switch between Channels and Keys. The
following control buttons are available:
o Excess Ink Area – Toggles the view to show areas inked in excess the defined maximum ink key value.
o Sheet Placement – Toggles the Sheet Placement view in Ink Keys, placing the page on the press plate
defined in the Press Config.
o Channels – Select which channel to view in the InkKeyViewer. Touching the currently active channel
o
button again will show all ink channels.
Ink Keys – These are buttons for each separate Ink Key as defined in the loaded Press configuration.
Press configurations with large numbers of Ink Keys may use more buttons than will fit on the Touch
Console screen. Excess buttons can be accessed by touch-­‐and-­‐dragging the Ink Key controls up or
down. Touch the Main button in the Mode Bar to return to the Main screen.
• Find Note – If any Notes are attached to the currently viewed job/page/spread, this button will open a list of
the Notes in the Touch Console. Select a Note to navigate to its location on the proof. Finding a Note will toggle
the Notes button to show all notes.
• Show All – Show the whole job within the SoftProof window.
• Print Size – Show the job in the SoftProof window at print size.
• Actual Pixels – Show the job in a one screen pixel to one job pixel ratio (i.e., 100% zoom).
This view mode has the quickest load time as no resampling for scaling is required.
• Fit Width/Height – Fit the job to the width or height of the SoftProof window.
Navigate
In Navigate mode, it is possible to pan around the image and change the zoom or fitting method. A thumbnail of the
image is loaded into the centre action area of the console.
Touch the thumbnail to jump to that location on the image in the
SoftProof; or touch-­‐drag around the thumbnail to pan around the
proof.
Around the edges of the thumbnail are the Touch Console controls for
Show All, Print Size, Full Screen, Fit Width, Fit Height, 100% (Actual
Pixels).
The two remaining controls alternate between Previous Page/Next
Page or Zoom In/Zoom Out.
