Step 1¨ Create an Image for Full Color + Spot Color Printing

1.Prepare the full color image and the spot color images separately.

Spot color image

Output results

Full color image

2.Create one file containing the full color image and a sec- ond file containing the spot color image.

Note

∙In applications that allow multiple pages, the spot color im- age may be prepared on page 1 and the full color image on page 2.

∙For instructions on indicating spot colors on page contain- ing the spot colors, please refer to the section titled “Multi Spot Color Printing” earlier in this guide.

∙To make it easier to correctly position the full color and the spot color images, prepare all the data in a single file and then make two copies of the file. In one file delete the spot color data and, in the other file, delete the full color data.

∙When you want to print full color + spot color without split- ting the two sets of data, place the spot color data on top of the full color data and set its color to white so that it does not print. Positioning the spot color data above the full color data and setting its color to white makes it relatively easy to use the same image for both sets of data.
