Bobbob Posted July 30, 2020 Share Posted July 30, 2020 I'm sending a job to a printing company from an RGB colour space publisher file. If I export as PNG then #000000 black prints as rich black, but if I export as PDF then #000000 black seems to print as 100% K. If I send them a non colour-managed PDF from inkscape then #000000 black prints as rich black, so I'm guessing it's something about the way publisher exports to PDF rather than anything their end. Is it possible to change this behaviour? I can see how this might be helpful sometimes, but it's not helpful right now. And yes, I know I could/should just work in CMYK, but there are reasons why I'm using an RGB file in this case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bobbob Posted July 30, 2020 Author Share Posted July 30, 2020 Do I also need to un-check the "overprint black" checkbox? Will checking it force 0,0,0 RGB black to 100%K? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
