Hi Corel help.......and I need help. I am using CorelDraw X3
I do tee-shirt art. I am in the process of doing a shirt and have used the mesh blend tool for the first time.
It is way cool to be able to drag and drop a color to blend. My question is I have an 8 color design in spot colors. I used the mesh blend tool pretty heavy on a car in the design and am very pleased with the effects.
But when I go to view the print seps. preview mode, I am not seeing the 3 colors I blended in the car.
The color comes up on the bottom of the page but the page is white. I am afraid that when I send my artwork to the printer he won't be able to seperate it.
I want to be able to view all the seperations but can't. Can anyone help?
Thanks in advance
earl
Sounds like you forgot to check the little box that says "Print Separations"....in the sep dialog box.
Hi, Earl, the mesh fill of X3 converts spot colors to CMYK. I'm not sure if you open your job in X4 it will be auto-updated
Hi Ariel,
Not sure I understand what you mean by auto updated.
Do you mean I will be able to see the seps. in my original spot colors using X4?
Thanks
If you use Pantone Colors in mesh fill with X4, CorelDRAW does not convert to CMYK, but I'm not sure that if you open with X4 a mesh fill created withe X3, the program correct the color conversion, or maintain as CMYK colors
Ariel,
Thanks for your quick response, you have helped me understand a great deal.
I will try opening it up in X4 and see what happens............many thanks again
