Specifying overprint colors
Overprint colors are two unscreened inks printed
on top of each other. For example, when a cyan ink
prints over a yellow ink, the resulting overprint is
a green color. The order in which inks are printed,
as well as variations in the inks and paper, can sig-nificantly
affect the final results.
You can indicate how you want the overprint col-ors
to be displayed on-screen so you can see how
they will look when printed. If possible, run a test
using a printed sample of the overprinted inks to
adjust your screen display. Note that this adjust-ment
affects only how the overprint colors appear
on the screen; it does not affect how the final image
is printed.
Before adjusting these colors, make sure that you
have calibrated your system following the instruc-tions
in Chapter 5, “Reproducing Color.” Make
sure that Use Dot Gain for Grayscale Images is
selected in the Printing Inks Setup dialog box so
you can use the Levels or Curves command to
compensate for dot gain. For more information,
see “Compensating for dot gain in grayscale and
duotone images” on page 92.
To adjust the display of overprint colors:
1 Choose Image > Mode > Duotone.
2 Click Overprint Colors. The Overprint Colors
dialog box displays the combinations that will
result when the inks are printed.
3 Click the color swatch of the ink combination
you want to adjust.
4 Select the color you want in the Color Picker
and click OK.
5 Repeat steps 3 and 4 until the overprint inks
appear as you want them. Then click OK in the
Overprint Colors dialog box.
Saving and loading duotone settings
Use the Save and Load buttons in the Duotone
Options dialog box to save the set of duotone
curves, ink settings, and overprint colors. You can
then apply these settings to other grayscale images.
In addition, the Adobe Photoshop program
includes several sample sets of duotone, tritone,
and quadtone curves. These sets provide some of
the more commonly used curves and colors and
can be used as starting points for creating your
own combinations.
CHAPTER 14 342
Printing
Viewing the individual printing plates
Because duotones are single-channel images, your
adjustments to individual printing inks are dis-played
as part of the final composite image. In
some cases, you might want to view the individual
“printing plates” to see how the individual colors
will separate when printed (as you can with CMYK
images).
To view the individual colors of a duotone image:
1 After specifying your ink colors, choose Image >
Mode > Multichannel.
The image is converted to a multichannel image,
with each channel representing a printing ink.
Channel 1 represents the first ink specified in the
Duotone Options dialog box, channel 2 represents
the second ink color, and so on.
Do not save the image; you’ll need to undo the
mode change (return to Duotone mode) before
printing or exporting the image.
2 Select the channel you want to examine in the
Channels palette.
3 Choose Edit > Undo Mode Change to revert to
Duotone mode.
Note: Using the Curves command in Multichannel
mode to create duotone curves does not produce the
desired results. If you want to adjust the distribution
of ink and view its effect on the individual printing
plates, make the adjustments in the Duotone Curves
dialog box before converting to Multichannel mode.
Printing duotones
When creating duotones, keep in mind that both
the order in which the inks are printed and the
screen angles you use dramatically affect the final
output. For more information, see “Specifying the
ink colors” on page 338.
Use the Auto button in the Halftone Screens dialog
box to set the optimal screen angles and frequen-cies.
Make sure you select Use Accurate Screens in
the Auto Screens dialog box if you’re printing to an
imagesetter equipped with PostScript Level 2 or an
Emerald controller. See “Selecting screen
attributes for a color separation” on page 334 for
complete information about the Accurate Screens
option.
Note: The recommended screen angles and frequen-cies
for quadtones are based on the assumption that
channel 1 is the darkest ink and channel 4 is the
lightest ink.
To print separations of a duotone image, choose
File > Print. You do not need to convert duotone
images to CMYK to create separations. Converting
to CMYK mode converts any custom colors to
their CMYK equivalents.
Exporting duotone images to other
applications
When working with duotones that you’re going to
export to other applications, it is important to
name custom colors exactly as they are recognized
by the other application. If the name is
different, the image will not print correctly or
might not print at all.

This section tells you how to export duotone
images to Scitex CT format and how to print duo-tones
from QuarkXPress.
To save a duotone image in Scitex CT format:
1 Convert the image to Multichannel mode by
choosing Image > Mode > Multichannel.
2 Choose New Channel from the Channels
palette menu to add new channels until there are
four channels in the image. (If the image is a quad-tone,
you do not need to add channels.)
3 Convert the image to CMYK mode by choosing
Image > Mode > CMYK.
Although the converted image will not display cor-rectly
as a duotone image, it will be printed cor-rectly
in the Scitex CT format. Converting to
CMYK preserves the contents of the four sepa-rated
custom color plates and lets you save the
image in Scitex CT format. The conversion gener-ates
blank plates if the image is a monotone, duo-tone,
or tritone. These blank plates are necessary
because the Scitex CT format requires four chan-nels.
Printing and previewing spot
colors
Spot colors, also called custom colors, are special
premixed inks that are used instead of, or in addi-tion
to, the process color (CMYK) inks, and
require their own separations and their own plates
on press. Spot colors may or may not fall within
the CMYK gamut; for example, a spot color may
be a neon or metallic ink that is not within the
CMYK gamut, or it may be a shade of green that
falls within the gamut. In addition to colored inks,
varnishes are considered spot colors because they
also require a separate plate on press.
You cannot directly assign spot colors in Adobe
Photoshop; however, you can use one of two tech-niques
to prepare a Photoshop image for spot
color printing: If a spot color is to be distributed throughout the
image, convert the image to Duotone mode and
apply the spot color to one of the duotone plates.
(You use Duotone mode to create monotones,
duotones, tritones, and quadtones, enabling you
to use up to four spot colors, one per plate.) For
instructions on creating duotones, see “Using
monotones, duotones, tritones, and quadtones,”
on page 337. If a spot color is to be printed on specific areas of
an image, convert the image to CMYK and use the
C, M, and Y channels as substitute spot color
plates. You can then preview the spot colors on-screen
by changing the default color values in the
C, M, and Y channels (cyan, magenta, and yellow)
to the values of the spot color you will give to your
printer. The following technique shows you how
to apply spot colors to an image using CMYK
Color mode.
Adding spot colors to an image
Working in CMYK mode, you can apply up to
three spot colors to an image. By converting an
image to CMYK, you can add a single spot color to
each of the C, M, and Y channels.
