Please note that there are a few restrictions:
Using Images
Notes on Some Image Formats
• The maximum number of colors stored in a linework is restricted to
255 in Scitex Handshake and TIFF/IT linework files, except for Scitex
New Linework (*.NLW).
• Bitmap and TIFF lineworks are monochrome (1-bit) formats with
only 2 color table entries. Only black and white may be used when
editing such files.
A warning that you will lose information appears when you save a linework
with more colors in monochrome format and when you start
the Linework Editor.
When converting a colored linework to monochrome format, you
must reload the file to see the color change.
• TIFF/IT HC files can neither be modified using the Linework Editor
nor saved to another linework format.
TIFF/IT HC (High resolution Contone) files have no color table and
are therefore not as compacted as other linework formats. Unlike
TIFF/IT LW, they can store any number of colors including spot colors
and are used e.g. for high-resolution edge definition.
• Layouts with more than 255 colors in linework, text or tint elements
can only be exported to the following formats:
• PDF, PostScript, EPS (including the Flat formats)
• Scitex Handshake with *.NLW file
• TIFF/IT or Scitex Handshake without *.LW file (‘all-in-CT’)
• TIFF and JPEG
• TIFF/IT HC files can only be exported in ‘all-in-CT’ formats.

Scitex New CT Files
http://www.image2output.com
Scitex New CT (NCT) files are CT images that support spot colors.
The current ORIS PDF Tuner version supports only Scitex NCT files with
CMYK colors, grayscales or exactly one spot color.
Scitex NCT images with spot colors are currently displayed in grayscales,
because ORIS PDF Tuner it not yet capable of displaying spot
colors on the screen. The spot colors are calculated correctly, however,
when exporting layouts with Scitex NCT images to another format.
