Hello,

may I ask someone, who understands knockout and overprint in the printing press, to check test cases in the attached file from the test suite, if overprint is working or not in Mark IV, please?

Regards,
Jano

Hello,

whatever I try, I cannot get the overprinting right (checked in Output Preview of Acrobat). Even overprint-001.tex from the test suite (2020-09-19) doesn't seem to have it right (latest beta). What I'm missing here?

\setupcolors[intent=overprint]
\startTEXpage[offset=10mm]
\framed[frame=on,offset=10mm,
        background=color,backgroundcolor=darkgreen]{
%         \startcolorintent[overprint]
        \startoverprint
        text in black
        \stopoverprint
%         \stopcolorintent
        }
\stopTEXpage


Thank you,
Jano

Forgot to say, I've also tried to add
\setupcolors[state=start,rgb=no,cmyk=yes]
though I think, at least state=start isn't needed anymore.
It doesn't change the overprint issue.
