Create a Document for Multiple Foil Printing
1.
Use any application to create the image or document you
want to print, and prepare it just as you would for normal
printing. The image may contain text as well as graphics.
2.
Select the application colors that correspond to each
Foilfast color you wish to use.
For example, set the parts of the image that you want to print
in gold foil to yellow. If you are also using black, set the parts of
the image that you want to print in black to black.
Note
Many applications have color palettes that allow easy selection
of foil colors.
