R C-R Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 I could be misunderstanding what you mean by single-color but if you mean greyscale, choose either Gray/8 or Gray/16 for the new Document > Color Format choice, not CMYK/8. (CMYK is not a single color format.)

Alfred Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 I think the OP is looking for spot colour support.

mac_heibu Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 No, he is simply looking for something very common: If you define a CMYK color C=0, M=0, Y=0 and K=100, it should be passed over to the print PDF and Acrobat as exactly(!) these colors and not change the values of each color plane, when color profiles and the simulation profile of Acrobat are correct. Composing Black out of all CMYK color only should happen, if you intend it or if you have a RGB/CMYK to CMYK conversion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mac_heibu Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 I tried to reproduce, what the original poster wanted to do. If you make it right, Affinity seems to perform absolutely correct. Of course you have to choose equal profiles in document setup and PDF-output, and you have to choose the same simulation profile within Acrobat to inspect it. I attached: • a sample AD-document (ECI ISO coated v2) • the corresponding PDF output (ECI ISO coated v2) • screenshot of document settings (in German language) • screenshot of Acrobat’s "Output Preview" (in German language) Sample.zip flashpoint 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
