 It would be good to have the ablility to create a fill that separates to more than one Pantone color. Example: A green fill that is applied like a normal fill but it separates to 100% Pantone 108 and 65% Pantone 300. The way this is done right now is overlapping shapes that have different Pantone colors and then set to overprint. QUite tedious if you receive artwork from somebody else and there are hundreds of shapes that need to be replaced.

Hi

See if find and replce (for colours or colour pallette or Colour mode) helps you. Even this could be tedious but just with some relief.

If you are aware of VBA then you can write a macro to the task or visit MacroMonster.com -------- GREAT SITE FOR Utility macros

I agree. To be able to specify CMYK as alternative custom colours would be the go. Then you could see at least 4 colour non process jobs with ink mixes.

Essentially to specifiy the inks used as part of the page description. That could be done without breaking the Postscript N colour model.

That's what I'm talking about, using macros and find and replace is cumbersome, without these tools I woudn't even attempt to correct some designs.
