Spot color variations overview

A spot color is a specially mixed ink that enables you to reproduce colors that are difficult to reproduce with CMYK inks. When a spot color is converted to CMYK for digital printing, the printout doesn’t always simulate the desired spot color. The spot color variations feature enables you to easily edit a spot color by selecting a more appropriate shade. The spot color variations feature provides 37 variations, with slightly different CMYK values.
