Overprinting Print the first color as a solid, then print the second color over it. This method is also easier to register than trapping, but light colors printed over a dark background may change. For best results, print a dark color over a light color. Please discuss with your Project Coordinator any concerns about color selection for the underprinting and overprinting methods. If you do not use one of these methods to properly register an image, we will contact you for approval to correct the registration, or request that you submit corrected film.
Production is delayed until correctly registered film is available.
In order to facilitate timely processing of label film, SDM requests that the electronic label art file accompany label film, so that we can make corrections quickly and efficiently. Always provide an integral color proof when submitting process film. If an integral proof is not provided with a process image, SDM will request one from the customer. If no integral proof is available, SDM will ask the customer for permission to create one and will request approval on color. Production is delayed until an integral proof is available.
