    multiply simulates an overprint but the final printed result is not as good (digital simulation vs actual double run print).

    either way you can achieve the result you want...

    • Multiply does NOT simulate an overprint as it multiplies the colors. An overprint actually prints OVER the black, muting it.monospaced
    • hmm interesting i always assumed the converted CMYK results would be exact same, (CMYK) + (CMYK), but you're saying no?horton
    • saying no?horton
    • so for example, 100Y multiplied ontop of 50K does not equal 0,0,100,50... ? as it would inverprint?horton
    • overprinting is NOT multiplying...overpr... is one ink OVER another, not something done in softwaremonospaced
