Difference between HDAG and Creo CM when mapping spots on output.


Product

  Prinergy Connect 2.1 ; Prinergy Direct 2.1 ; Prinergy Access 2.1 ; Prinergy Powerpack 2.1 ; Prinergy Satellite

Platform

 

Operating system

 


Error

 

None.


Symptoms

 

Spot color images are missing on Final Output but are present on proofing output, i.e. the proof and plate don't match.


Cause

  Heidelberg uses the RIP to map spots. Creo CM does its own spot mapping.

Solution

 

To get the same behaviour as Heidelberg when using the Creo CM, simply remove the proof process profile from the proofing output process plan. Of course, this will prevent you from colormatching the output but now the proof will match the plate
