Plate paint modes

Real life inks often have characteristics which are difficult to simulate digitally. The new Plate Paint Modes are a step towards more realistic simulation. A plate can be assigned any one of these paint modes:

• Overprint, traditional mixing of channels
• Knockout, all channels of the top plate dominate those of the plates bellow it
• Primer, white ink simulation
• Opaque, variable opacity to simulate metallic or other special inks
