Note:
Loading Spot Color Files
Various spot color files are loaded already and can be selected from the
list at the top (COLOR BOOKS). Use LOAD OTHERS to select files which are
not listed there. The spot color files included in the ORIS PDF Tuner software
are stored under ..\Program Files\CGS\Common Files\CC, by default.
A list of these files is available in this document (see page 32-9).
The following file types can be loaded:
• ORIS Spot Color Files (*.OSC)
• Logo ColorPicker Files (*.LCP).
• User-defined spot colors stored in the file Private.OSC (see
page 32-10). Use the entry PRIVATE BOOK to select this file.
• Spot color files from ORIS Color Tuner (*.Lab, *.SCG)
Having loaded a ColorPicker table, you are asked whether you would
like to convert it to ORIS PDF Tuner format. If you work with ICC Color
Management in ORIS PDF Tuner, the OUTPUT COLOR SPACE profile and
the ICC profile used for creating the Color Picker table should be identical.
Removing Spot Color Files
If you have loaded a spot color file using the LOAD OTHER button, you can
remove it from the list at the top (COLOR BOOKS). To do so, select the
spot color file and click the REMOVE button. Note that the standard spot
color files that are loaded automatically cannot be removed.
Selecting a Spot Color
There are several ways to select a spot color:
• Click an item in the list of spot colors.
• Click a color in the color spectrum displayed below this list.
• Use the arrows displayed to the right of the spectrum to select the
next or previous spot color in the list.
Note on Creating ColorPicker Tables
The Logo Color Picker from GretagMacbeth allows you to convert spot
colors – which may be obtained by measurement – to the color space of
your target device using ICC profiles. Please note the following when
creating Color Picker tables for ORIS PDF Tuner:
• Always use a CMYK profile.
• Select EDIT | PREFERENCES and make sure the EDITING MODE option
is set to DEVICE COLOR.
