coffee and the edge
« on: January 01, 2009, 03:22:56 PM »
Some times it's like the operation is two speeds, slow and slower.
Other times one can get on a roll and really kick out some pages.
Can't believe how slow it's been so far this morning in that it seems
about every page has non-perpedicular panels and trying to balance the page.

'Gee, should the top panels run parallel with the screen or the leading edge of the left?'
'Hey, this one's so far off maybe it should have a happy medium between the two?'
'Man, why is it taking me like 10 seconds between each press of a tab?'
"Did a new weather system just move in or what?'


Think I'll get a second cup.

I have been doing some cropping and straightening on Camera Comics. It is hard to straighten some pages that were not straight to start with. If you straighten the top of some the bottom is not straight, etc.Some of the photograph pages are pretty bad.

When the panels start to become way off the mark I have a tendency to just line the horizontal lettering type and let 'er fly.

Makes you wonder if the guys who were ruling the borders were a bit tipsy or if it was the guys running the cameras who couldn't line up the copyboard perpendicular to the lens.

It seems like a pretty simple process that went wrong all too often.
