Multiple linescreens in InDesign.

[Suz_S_]

How do I set multiple objects in my file to different line-screens? The all need to be in the same PMS color, but at different tints.

So it's printed litho – with a PMS spot colour and what other colours, if any?

Hm. Could you double-burn one plate?

I was told that wasn't an option in our RIP. Thanks

I am now working on a way to create this art in InDesign. Pulling screened art directly into my layout. This will cut out one level in the creation. Which saves me some time. Still a costly process now. However, I can still service our customers, it is just going to be more costly for them. Thanks

Hi Suz,

So are all these files are actually in PDF format?

Are you trying to update or edit them?

Or are you trying to create a new workflow avoiding the use of older software?

Thanks Pete

I am trying to create a new workflow without Freehand.

OK, what format are the files in?

Do you have PDFs of all of these files?

If so what PDF version are they?
