Adobe Creative Suite 5 Printing Guide 21
If you cannot locate any page elements using the unwanted spot color,
but are still concerned that an unwanted plate may be output as a result
of artwork you’ve overlooked, try this: Print the file as separated output
to a laser printer, selecting only the problem plate for output. If no
objects or artwork are using the problem swatch, when you start to
print, an alert will appear that the selected pages do not use the ink.
If you determine that the swatch is truly not used in the document, you
should feel confident that no unnecessary plates will be generated by
the file. However, you may want to delete the swatch to avoid confusing
anyone who handles the file later in the prepress process. If you still
can’t delete the swatch, try exporting the file to InDesign Interchange to
clean it up. Choose File > Export, and choose InDesign Markup
Language as the format. A file with the extension .idml is created. Close
the problem file, and open the IDML file. You should now be able to
delete the problem swatch, and save the file under a new name.
Editing swatches
It’s better to manage, examine, and edit colors when they are saved as
swatches. To find colors used in the document that are not designated
as named swatches, choose Add Unnamed Colors from the Swatches
panel menu. InDesign then finds all colors and adds them to the
Swatches panel list. It’s now much easier to check for spot colors or
process colors specified as RGB or Lab colors that may not output as
expected, because they will be converted to CMYK during most print or
output operations.
To edit a swatch, double-click the swatch name in the Swatches panel;
the Swatch Options dialog appears. Use the Color Type pop-up menu to
choose between Spot and Process. Choose from the Color Mode pop-
up menu to assign a color modeyou can choose from Lab, CMYK,
and RGB, or select from the long list of color swatchbooks, such as
Pantone Coated, TRUMATCH, Toyo, and more. Note that just setting the
Color Mode to CMYK (without changing the Color Type) is not sufficient
to designate a swatch as a process color. You must also change the
Color Type to Process to designate the swatch as process.
Changing the Color Denition of a Swatch
Double-click the swatch name in the Swatches panel; you can then change the name, color
type, and recipe in the Swatch Options dialog box. Here, an RGB swatch (le) is converted to
CMYK for more predictable output (right).
Using the Ink Manager
You may receive a job that uses multiple spot inks, which are actually
intended to print as a single color. For example, the InDesign file may
include artwork and page objects that use Pantone 130 C, Pantone
130 U, and PMS 130. Clearly, these names are intended to represent a
single ink, and the multiple ink definitions must be resolved before
printing. Most RIP software allows the remapping of spot colors, to
resolve extra inks to the correct plates. But you can also use the
InDesign Ink Manager to rectify the superfluous colors and accomplish
the same goalcorrect output. The Ink Manager is available via the
Swatches panel menu, the Separations Preview panel menu, in the Print
dialog box, and in Export dialog boxes for EPS and PDF.
