Managing color on the Fiery
Detailed explanations of how these and other settings affect your print jobs are
provided in subsequent sections of this chapter.
Combine Separations
The Combine Separations setting specifies how to print separated CMYK data. If you
have the Fiery Graphic Arts Package option, you can combine an unlimited number of
spot color separations along with the CMYK separations. The Combine Separations
options are:
•
Off
prints each separation individually.
•
On
combines separations as a single, composite-color document, and constrains the
settings of the following print options: Color Mode (CMYK), Rendering Style
(None), Pure Black Text/Graphics (Off ), Spot Color Matching (Off ).
•
1–PgAutomatic
combines separations as a single, composite-color document,
overprinting plates in the order defined by the source application.
Black Overprint
On/Off (Default set at Setup)
The On setting overprints black text placed on colored backgrounds; it
automatically activates the Pure Black Text/Graphics option (see
).
Black Overprint Style
Text/Text & Graphics
Specifies whether black overprinting should apply to text only or to both text
and graphics. For this option to take effect, the Black Overprint option must
be set to On (see
).
Spot Color Matching
On/Off
(Default set at Setup or with
ColorWise Pro Tools)
The On setting enables Fiery-defined matching of spot colors to their best
CMYK equivalents. If you have the Fiery Graphic Arts Package option
installed, you can use Spot On to manage and edit these spot color matches
(see
). Off instructs the Fiery to match color output to a CMYK
combination specified by the source application for the document (see
Image Smoothing
Automatic/Off/On/Below 90–300 ppi
The On setting enhances the print quality of low-resolution images.
