Hi everyone, Is there any way other than perspective distortion or maybe mesh-warp to transform/skew text like in the image?

Mike, Alright, again great tips. I think I covered most of it except for setting up the spot color. First I'll change the color to something else like the magenta in your case. I'll ask the printer about adding color. Thank you, since there is a chance I made a mistake in setting up the spot colors I'd really like to know if you get the same issue with applying them to brush strokes. I really appreciate the effort!

Hey Mike! Thanks for the reply. I did not know that so I was definitely doing something wrong haha. Glad to hear I shouldn't have to expand because that's just not happening. Just to make sure I understand; All I have to do is put all my art that have the spot color applied in a seperate layer called 'foil'? Let's say this spot color is a brownish orange (copper) will cold foil have any problem with applying a color other than silver? I really appreciate the answer, Mike. I'll see what I can do with the information you gave I just really do hope there's a way to apply spot colors to brush strokes. That should be possible right?

Hi! I've been trying to prepare one of my clients business card design for printing using cold foil to give certain elements a metallic effect. To do this I need spot colours for the elements that I want to give the metallic effect to (might have to add overprint as well). Spot colours seem to only apply to color fills and not to outlines so these need to be expanded first. The logo, however, is made up of advanced brushes which apparently cannot be expanded. Simply recreating the logo isn't an option either because it's one of those dry brush effects. Is there any way to get these designs ready for cold foil printing when expanding isn't an option? Any help or advice would be really appreciated as I'm nearing the deadline.
