11-12 Fiery Color ManagementN OTE : The Pure Black Text/Graphics option can be used only when printingcomposites, not when printing separations.N OTE : PostScript applications, such as QuarkXPress, may convert elements defined asRGB = 0, 0, 0 to four-color CMYK black before sending the job to the Fiery. Theseelements are not affected by the Pure Black Text/Graphics option. For details, seethe application notes. Also, black text and line art defined as RGB = 0, 0, 0 in officeapplications (such as Microsoft Word) are converted to single-color black(CMYK = 0%, 0%, 0%, 100%) by the Microsoft PostScript Level 3 driver forWindows 2000/XP. To print this single-color black at the maximum toner density ofthe copier/printer, set the Pure Black Text/Graphics option to On.Black OverprintThe Black Overprint option lets you specify whether or not black text—defined asRGB = 0, 0, 0, or as CMYK = 0%, 0%, 0%, 100%—overprints colored backgrounds.• On—Black text overprints colored backgrounds, eliminating white gaps andreducing halo effects or misregistration of colors. Setting Black Overprint to Onautomatically activates the Pure Black Text/Graphics option.• Off—Black text knocks out colored backgrounds.Inputblack colorPure Black Text/GraphicsOn OffRGB Prints 100% black With the default profile, prints a rich black using alltoners.CMYK Prints only with black toner, because CMYKsimulations preserve the black channel.
