Artwork : Colour Separations

If your artwork is required to be printed in more than 1 colour and you are supplying your own art files, we require the job to be colour separated. This means for each colour we require a separation to create a printing plate — for example, if your company logo has 3 colours red, blue and yellow, we would require a separation plate for each colour in the logo, one for the red, one for yellow and one for blue. See our example below.  Separations need to be supplied in either 100% black for foil printing or in PMS Colours for flexo printing.

Please check with us prior to job set up as to how this job is to be printed on our label press as this can affect the layout order and direction of the printing plate.
