Re: spot color not coming out right



Rochelle,

Has nothing to do with Distiller or driver settings.

Exit FrameMaker. Then look in the "maker.ini" file (fmsgml.ini for 
FrameMaker+SGML) and look for the line:

GetLibraryColorRGBFromCMYK=Printing

and edit it to:

GetLibraryColorRGBFromCMYK=None

Save the file and restart FrameMaker and now attempt to print the
file.

I've done all that it asks me in terms of sending it non-html but I think there are settings on the server here at work that are out of my control. Feel free to post this one if you want but I strongly suspect you have the answer I'm looking for. Here's the problem:
