Managing color on the Fiery
C9800 Color Guide - 21
Spot Color Matching
The Spot Color Matching option provides automatic matching of spot colors with
their best CMYK equivalents.
•
On
—The Fiery uses a built-in table to generate the closest CMYK matches of spot
colors your printer can produce. (New tables are generated when you add new
output profiles.) With Spot-On, the Fiery uses the CMYK matches determined
through Spot-On (see
).
•
Off
—The Fiery uses CMYK equivalents defined by the spot color manufacturer,
such as PANTONE. These are the same CMYK equivalents used by applications
that include spot color libraries.
For jobs that include spot colors, set Spot Color Matching to On unless you are
printing press simulations. In that case, set Spot Color Matching to Off and choose the
appropriate CMYK Simulation setting (see
).
For PDF jobs that include spot colors and where the spot colors are not included in the
built-in table, setting Spot Color Matching to On retains the spot color originally
specified. The Fiery references the built-in table to generate the closest CMYK matches
of the original spot color.

:
Use the Spot Color Matching option only when printing composites, not when
printing separations.
Spot Color Matching and the PANTONE Coated Color Reference
The PANTONE Coated Color Reference (described in the
Chapter 4
) prints differently depending on the Spot Color Matching setting.
•
On
—The Fiery uses a built-in table or, with Spot-On, the Spot-On color dictionaries
(see
) to generate the best matches of the PANTONE colors that your
C9800 can produce. The PANTONE number is printed below each swatch.
•
Off
—The Fiery prints swatches using the CMYK values recommended by Pantone
Inc. (and used by applications that provide PANTONE color libraries). The CMYK
values used to generate the color, as well as the PANTONE number of the color, are
printed below each swatch. These CMYK values are printed through the selected
CMYK Simulation and Output Profile settings.
