Note 2:
White portions of data (R=G=B=100%) are not
printed.
In multi foil colour printing, indicate foil colours by se-
lecting colours in the application that most closely re-
semble the foil colours. Try to select colours that
resemble the colours listed in the tables below. In appli-
cations that do not have many colour choices, such as
word processors, closely related colours can be used.
• Colour compositions using RGB settings (n/255)
• Colour compositions using RGB settings (n/
100%)
Note:
For instructions on changing colour component set-
tings within an application, refer to your software
application User manual. Depending on the applica-
tion, a foil colour may not print correctly even though
the colour settings were properly set in the application.
Check the Preview window before printing, and try
increasing or decreasing the setting to get the correct
foil colour to print.
