Setting Overprint Options for Overlapping Colours


1 This is an image created in Illustrator. How to set it up for printing but how do we set the overprint options?



2 Choose the object you want to overprint.



3 Go to Attributes and check Overprint Fill. (Make a new black consisting of 50% cyan, yellow, magenta, and then 100%to get a richer black colour).



4 Choose the objects for overprinting.

5 Choose Filters>Colors and Overprint Black.

 



6 Specify the percentage of black we want. Since we only have a fill with black in it, specify Apply to Fill.
