Joachim_L Posted September 2, 2019 Author Share Posted September 2, 2019 Thx for confirming. So why is a gradient possible with ONE spot but not with TWO?

Joachim_L Posted September 2, 2019 Author Share Posted September 2, 2019 @Lagarto This is weird. You picked those Pantone colours from list inside Publisher? I made myself a application wide palette with some colours including HKS 7 and some tone variants of it. Created a gradient from HKS 7 100% to HKS 7 28% and exported without any problem. Funny thing in your Publisher document is, that Pantone Blue does not appear in the PDF as colour, in fact even Rhodamine is ignored in the upper gradient. But Pantone works as spot colour. For testing I just added two squares with just Blue and Rhodamine.

Joachim_L Posted March 13, 2020 Author Share Posted March 13, 2020 I guess still not fixed? Spot to white (or any other non-spot) working, spot to spot not.
