Select
Raster
when outputting to low-resolution contone
proofers (for example, Veris digital proofer or Matchprint Inkjet
proofer).
Note: To use raster overprint handling, you must select, in the
Render
section of the process template,
Shades=256
.
Additional factors to consider:
●
Raster overprint handling can be applied only to continuous
tone data
●
Raster overprint handling occurs after the RIP
●
Raster processing time increases exponentially as the
resolution increases
●
Raster overprint handling eliminates all overprints
Select
Vector
when outputting to halftone (screen) proofers
(for example, the Spectrum device), or to high-resolution
contone proofers.
Additional factors to consider:
●
Vector overprint handling occurs before the RIP
●
Depending on the complexity of the file, vector overprint
handling could take longer than raster overprint handling.
●
Vector overprint handling does not eliminate all overprints.
In objects where overprinting does not have an effect on the
output, the objects retain an overprint status. For example, if
you set black to overprint, but one black object is not placed
on top of another object, this black object is, after overprint
handling, still an overprinting object.
Preserve Traps
Select this check box to preserve existing Kodak traps when
vector overprint handling is used.
Note: When existing traps are preserved, you cannot remove them in
later processing. You must remove the traps in the original file. Traps are
color-managed as regular objects.
Process CEPS Data
Select this check box to enable spot color mapping and color
matching of CEPS data.
For further information, see the CEPS Conversion Section and
the Normalize Section of the Refine Process Template.
