Re: KO from 100K

[t-pat]

Well, could be I would be in this situation if I had things set right. Further testing Monday.
You're saying Prinergy's default is to KO all 100K, regardless?

You have control. You can for example tell type under x point size to overprint, objects over x size to ko. You can ignore white overprint, or ignore all application overprints. Most of the time you get what you want, if not you can intervene easily. It seems to pretty much ignore those idiotic Adobe defaults for blacks pretty well.

Yeah, I'll talk to friendly Fuji guy next week. No reason it shouldn't have fixed it on the fly, really.

Another way to force it to KO from Indy without affecting everything else is to make a copy of the default Black swatch. The Black overprint settings in preferences won't apply to the copied swatch so it will KO.

I also use this same method in reverse. Sometimes the customer will use a plethora of different blacks, usually making copies of black that won't overprint, or rich blacks that should be straight black. I will delete these extraneous blacks, and replace with InDesign's default black so the blacks WILL overprint.

Is that reverse engineering, prepress-style?   :laugh:

Yep, you got that right. :wink:
