Create the Full Color + Spot Color Print Image
1. Create the full color and spot color data to be printed.
It is not necessary to prepare the spot color and full color im-
ages separately as with full color + spot color printing using
Overlay mode. The data is prepared on the same page. Ar-
eas to be printed with spot ink and those to be printed in full
color are indicated by their respective screen colors.
Note
There is a small range of color composition values that will be
interpreted by the printer as indicating spot colors. Because of
this, photographs and other data with large numbers of different
colors may have areas that match the spot color designations
and print partially in spot color. When printing images that contain
data such as photos, it is best to print full color + spot color
using Overlay mode.
2. Set the image areas to be printed in spot color to colors
that correspond to the spot colors you want to use.
