  Ok, so finally heard back from the broker, who heard back from the printer who said "a good way to get a nice black out of CMYK is 30C 100K, keep Y and M out of it." Fine, I knew that, but I've seen that done with smaller black text, but I've never seen it where the coverage is mostly black.

  This is an indesign file, with quite a few psd links in it, and of course, in PS 30C 100K looks blue tinged. In ID, it's a nice black, which I expected, so I exported and distilled an eps, and, here we are, back to a blue tinged file. It's causing me to be a little bit uneasy about that color setup. Anyone able to put me at ease?

  • sounds a bit odd to me too. Is it a bright white stock? Can you go on a press check?baseline_shift
