Using Screened Values of Spot Colors in Text
Doug Pershing posted a topic in FusionPro® VDP Producer
Is there a way to use a screened value of a color in text? For frames there is a fillColorPercent. Is there a way to do this with text? I currently have my site building dynamic colors using the cmyk hex values and passing it in the formatting as a color tag. I plan on converting the system to use the new FusionProColor function to define the name, the values, and isSpot. I am working with spot colors and I need to be able to create the spot and use various screens of the color in different text flows for two color print. -
Is it possible to screen tint variable text at a percentage of a spot color and be able to have it appear on the same separation after composition? For example, we have a 2-color business card that will be reproduced via offset or web press. The phone label is 60% PANTONE 362C and the phone number is 100% PANTONE 362C. After composition, the 60% spot text and 100% spot text become different separations. (Technically, turning our 2-color business card into a 3-color business card.) This isn't a problem with variable frame background colors, just the the text contained within. Surprised that we haven't run into this situation before. Thank you!
