sdrum Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 In Illustrator I can convert a whole palette to Pantone/spot color. Is there a way to do the same in Affinity Designer? The only option I have found to convert the whole image palette to spot color is to convert each color separately, which is very time consuming. Thank you.

Staff Dan C Posted August 1, 2018 Staff Share Posted August 1, 2018 Hi Sdrum Unfortunately there's not currently an option to convert a whole palette to be spot colours currently, each colour has to be done individually. I'll move this thread to feature requests for our devs to consider adding in a future update!

Should you require a response from the team in a thread I have previously replied in - please Create a New Thread and our team will be sure to reply as soon as possible. Many thanks!

How can you convert ANY existing colour into a Spot colour? Seems to me you can only set an existing colour to become Overprint. Spot colours need to be set up at the start as Global colours - unless I've (hopefully) missed something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Bruce Posted June 21, 2019 Share Posted June 21, 2019 Can't you just use the Colour Picker from the window which pops up when you select Add Global Colour and then just choose a colour you already have in the document? You just check the Spot checkbox. Or am I missing something?

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
