Protecting specific spot colors

Using the Spot Color Editor, you can protect specific colors—for
example, official logos or company colors—to help produce color
fidelity and color consistency between devices. When you define a
specific color as an RGB, CMYK, or gray spot color and enter a
fixed CMYK target for it, the CX print server treats the selected
color as a spot color and protects it.

Protecting an RGB color as a spot color

The RGB spot workflow applies to graphic and text elements.

1. From the Tools menu, select Spot Color Editor.
2. In the Spot Color Editor dialog box, click the Protect RGB tab.
3. Click (+).

values column, type the desired values, or select a spot color
from Entire Predefined List.

The color information appears.

values.

9. Click Apply.
