Table Of Contents
The Halftone drop-down menu lets you assign a different screen angle to a spot color.
The default screen values for spot colors are specified in the Halftone drop-down menu
in the Edit Colors dialog box (Edit > Colors > New).
The Frequency column lists the line screen frequency value. This is the lines per inch
(lpi) value that will be applied to each of the color plates. If you do not want to use
the default value for a plate, choose Other from the Frequency drop-down menu to
display the Frequency/Other dialog box.
The Angle column lists the screen angle for each color plate. If you do not want to
use the default value, choose Other from the Angle drop-down menu to display the
Angle/Other dialog box.
To specify alternate dot shapes in printed screens, choose an option from the Function
column drop-down menu.
Printing color composites
To print composite color output (as opposed to color separations):
1
Display the Color pane of the Print dialog box (File menu).
2
Choose Composite from the Mode drop-down menu.
3
Choose an option from the Setup drop-down list:
Grayscale
Grayscale 100K
Composite RGB
Composite CMYK
Composite CMYK and Spot (prints with composite PostScript, for a device that
supports In-RIP separations)
As Is (describes color items using their source color space, for output to a PostScript
composite color device)
The Setup drop-down menu also contains all output styles listed in the Default Output
Styles dialog box (Edit > Output Styles).
4
Choose Conventional or Printer from the Halftones drop-down menu. The
Conventional option uses QuarkXPress calculated halftone screen values. The Printer
option uses halftone screen values provided by the selected printer; in this case,
QuarkXPress does not send halftoning information.
5
To specify a line frequency other than the default value, enter a lines per inch (lpi)
value in the Frequency field, or choose an option from the Frequency drop-down
menu.
