    yup understood from the get go;

    forget monotone, change it to grayscale.

    if you're still unsure about the CMY values, save it as a grayscale tiff, place into your AI or ID layout, and you can apply whatever color you like; 0,0,0,100 (which it already is) or a spot called BLACK.

    • well... when we use our machines to print- they seem to prefer monotone files... but d_rek is not using our machines.bjladams

    • monotone option in photoshop is leftover from days when layout apps could apply color to grayscale imagesinkpink

    • or for people who do spot layouts in photoshop, but why would you do that?inkpink
    • we dont convert to monotone in photoshop- we do it in rasterlink pro, but the monotone photoshop files help with the rip.bjladams
