Hi Peter,
Peter Rolf
I get the same 'kind of knockedout' text as in the other example... but the black text is set as /DeviceGray and not /DeviceCMYK (k-component). You can make this visible by using 'Vorschau: Separiert' with the option 'Einblenden: Nicht-DeviceCMYK'.
I think this is just a limitation of the previewer. You can define your own cmyk black with \definecolor[myblack][k=1]. I bet that the knockedout effect will vanish with cmyk black (untested).
You're right. With k=1, the 'kind of knockedout' vanishes. Thank you very much, Peter! So is it advisable to change all black to cmyk black or can I safely rely on the DeviceGray black?
Can you test the following? My Acrobat is on a machine without net, and my usb stick broke within the experiments.
prepress mess + bad luck => *have a break and enjoy your weekend* :)
Well, due to your kind help, I'm able to do so now :-) Thanks again, olli -- Oliver Heins heins@sopos.org http://oliverheins.net/ http://blog.overheins.net/ F27A BA8C 1CFB B905 65A8 http://scriptorium-adp.de/ 2544 0F07 B675 9A00 D827 1024D/9A00D827 2004-09-24 -- gpg --recv-keys 0x9A00D827 Please avoid sending me Word or PowerPoint attachments: http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/no-word-attachments.html
