wobmann Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 When I export a document with black text as a print PDF, the text in the PDF is built in 4-color (cmyk). For printed products, it is important that black text be printed in black (k) only. Przemysław and Rich313 2 www.wobmann.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeW Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 Did you use the black swatch? If so, try selecting the text again, open the same color panel you have open in your screen shot, slide the K slider down a ways and then back to 100%. Then do another export and check it in Acrobat.

TomGerritzen Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 When exporting to PDF/X-4 black remains black. That is: C0M0Y0K100 doesn't get converted to a mix of all colours. Maybe this is what the PDF standards actually require an application to do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
