Expanding the Possibilities of Color

Spot-on solutions

Use of an expanded digital color palette also reduces the need for the spot inks used to print custom spot colors. This approach—which requires a 6-color press and a computer-to-plate installation—is said to reduce the cost of printing special colors and give designers more flexibility to use them in layouts. Since spot colors are replaced by composite process blends, they can be integrated easily into the workflow and proofed for color and placement.
