10 Chapter 4—Setting up process templates without ColorFlowSelecting a RIP in Prinergy Evoyour workflow software and in Kodak Proofing Software with OpenConnectivity Kit.Note: Kodak Proofing Software with Open Connectivity Kit is a licensed feature.1. In the Process Template Editor, open an output from PDF processtemplate.2. Expand the Render section and select a RIP. For best results, useAdobe CPSI.3. Complete the other options as desired, and click Save.Selecting a RIP in Open Connectivity Kit1. In Proofer Viewer, from the Configure menu, click Hot Folders /Virtual Printers.2. Complete the options as desired, and click Next.3. On the Input Files tab, in the PDF RIP option area, select a RIP. Forbest results, use Adobe CPSI.4. Complete the remaining options on the tabs as desired, and clickSave.Editing a refine to PDF templateThis section assumes that input files contain spot colors and that thefiles will be printed as CMYK plus spot colors on press. For the best spotcolorinkjet-proofing results, leave the spot colors defined as spotcolors in the digital file, and color-manage the spot colors during proofoutput to allow the spot color recipe to take advantage of the gamut ofthe proofer. When a spot color is converted to a process color duringthe refine, it limits control of the color reproduction on the proof.1. In the Process Template Editor, open a refine process template.2. In the Generate box, select PDF.3. In the Normalize section, in the PDF 1.4 - 1.6 (Acrobat 5 - 7) list,select an option as desired.This option specifies how to handle transparent objects.4. In the Spot Color Handling section, set the following options:●●●●●Select Don’t Map Spot Colors.Select Autoresolve Spot Color Naming Conflicts, and in theResolve to list, select C.Select Resolve Ambiguous Spot Color Definitions.Select Look Up Recipe in Color Database.In the User Library list, select None.
Editing output from PDF templates 11● In the Factory list, select PANTONE CMYK 2000.● In the Convert to Destination Profile area, select a profile thatrepresents the final output color space, such asUSWebCoatedSWOP.icc. The final output color space is usuallythe press color space.Note: The profile that you select here automatically appears in the FinalOutput Process Profile box in the Match Colors section. These profiles arealways the same.5. In the Match Colors section, select Strip Embedded Profiles, andselect profiles for CMYK Images, CMYK Graphics, RGB Images,and RGB Graphics.Note: When you select Strip Embedded Profiles but fail to select any profilesin the process template, Prinergy Evo strips any embedded profiles from theimages and graphics in the input files but does not replace them, because noreplacement profiles were identified in the process template.Note: The Prinergy Evo software does not support ICC profiles embedded inPostScript input files, because PostScript does not fully support embeddedprofiles.6. Set the remaining options as desired, and save the template.Editing output from PDF templatesThis procedure describes how to edit an output from the PDF processtemplate for inkjet proofing. For information about other Prinergy Evofeatures, see the Prinergy Evo User Guide.This procedure assumes that a job will be printed as CMYK plus spotcolors on press and describes how to best handle spot colors. Thissection describes how to use color libraries and ICC profiles to simulatethe spot colors in digital files on inkjet proofs. Submitting files withCMYK plus spot colors to the proofer is key to the workflow settingsdescribed next and provides you with the best options for spot colorhandling.In Kodak Proofing Software, ensure the following resources that youwant to use are enabled: media configuration files, layouts, ICC profiles,DeviceLink ICC profiles, and color bars.Note: For the Matchprint Inkjet 400 and 800 proofing solution with the HP ®Designjet ® printers, you can improve processing speeds by setting the renderresolution.1. In the Process Template Editor, open a default process template.2. In the Output To box, select Kodak Proofers (KPS direct connect).
