You have the option of changing the color recipe for the PANTONE
color for the job. The modified color recipe is stored with the job and
does not override the color recipe in the PANTONE library.
PANTONE library with other desktop applications
Prinergy recognizes PANTONE color names in files generated by
QuarkXPress, Illustrator, and Photoshop, because Prinergy knows the
rules these applications use to specify PANTONE color names. If you
are processing a file in Prinergy that is produced by any other desktop
application, such as CorelDRAW, you will need to know the rules the
applications use to name the PANTONE colors in their files to
successfully use the PANTONE library in Prinergy.
PANTONE library presence in Prinergy
The PANTONE library is invisible to you until you've refined files that
contain PANTONE spot colors or you have manually added separations
with PANTONE color names to a job. When a PANTONE color exists in
a job, you can see its color recipe when you display the Color
Separations dialog box or the Color Mapping dialog box.
The refining process and Color Combiner both use the PANTONE
library.
