Composite Overprint

When overlapping objects are printed, the foreground object can either overprint or knock
out the background object. With overprinting, the color of the background object shows
through the foreground object where they overlap, and the resulting color is a combination
of the colors of the two objects. With a knock-out, the foreground object hides the
background object where they overlap.
The Composite Overprint print option allows you to print overprinted objects as specified
in the source file. By default, the Composite Overprint print option is off and overlapping
objects print as knockouts.
The Composite Overprint print option is supported for PostScript and PDF jobs produced
by the following applications:
• Adobe Acrobat
• Adobe Illustrator
• Adobe InDesign
• Macromedia FreeHand
• QuarkXPress
• CorelDRAW
If Composite Overprint is enabled for a job that contains spot colors, Spot-On must be
enabled on the CX3641MFP.
A job with more than 32 spot colors may not print as expected.
