Substitute Colors
Spot-On allows you to create a list of substitute colors. These are colors that, when called for
in a document by their RGB or CMYK values, are substituted with a different color having
the CMYK values from the Spot-On color dictionary. This permits exact color control and
overrides individual RGB and CMYK colors.
To enable substitute colors for a job, select the Substitute Colors option.
For more information about creating and using substitute colors, see “Spot-On with
Substitute Colors” on page 61.
Printer drivers and print options
The printer driver writes a PostScript file containing the instructions generated by your
application and the settings for the ColorWise print options you selected. The printer driver
then sends the PostScript file to the Fiery EXP8000/50. The Fiery EXP8000/50 performs
PostScript processing and color conversions and sends raster color data to the digital press.
Setting print options for Windows
This section explains how to set color management print options with the Adobe and
Microsoft PostScript printer drivers for Windows, PostScript 3 printer drivers that take full
advantage of the color features of the Fiery EXP8000/50.
Before you proceed, do the following:
•Install the printer driver and the Fiery EXP8000/50 PPD (see Printing from Windows).
•Set up the Fiery EXP8000/50 for printing (see Printing from Windows).
NOTE: The following illustrations and instructions do not apply to all applications. Many
applications, such as Adobe PageMaker, Photoshop, Illustrator, QuarkXPress, and
CorelDRAW, have other color management options in addition to those presented in the
printer driver. For information about specific applications, see Fiery Color Reference.
