Greetings,
I've created, with my limited artistic skills, well-meaning Christmas cards that utilize specialty toners (white, silver and gold) for the Xerox Iridesse Press. You can download the card here.

I need to understand why when I select multiple text elements I cannot also select overprint fill.
Any help, artistic as well, is welcomed!
Cheeers from Vancouver 🙂
PS: This is in the latest Indesign on Catalina.
Hi BetterColour,
did you select text frames or did you select text with the text tool?
If you selected text frames the overprint would work on a fill color you applied to the frame ( not to the text it contains ).
If your text frames have no fill color applied the overprint for fill is grayed out.
So the solution would be:
Select text to access overprint for the fill color of the text.
