How to Create a White Flood Fill Layer
Introduction
When working with white ink you can choose the workflow that best fits your needs.
There are three main approaches to white ink workflow with your printer:
Flood Fill Layer - uses the Flood Fill Layer Configuration.
Onyx Spot Layer Tool - generate the white spot data in ProductionHouse.
Spot Data (pre-defined) - spot data is crated in image editing application such as Il-
lustrator or PhotoShop.
This section documents the Flood Fill Layer approach. The next two sections document
the other two approaches.
Purpose
The Flood Fill Layer allows you to print an image with a white flood fill as an underlay
an overlay. The edges of the image bounding box (the outer perimeter of the image) will
determine the extent of the flood fill area.
When to do
This approach is used when an image to be printed is rectangular in shape and requires
a white flood fill. The printer itself provides the white flood fill rather than the ONYX
Spot Layer Tool or an image editing application, so no additional data preparation is re-
quired.
Note:
If jobs are nested in the ONYX software, white is printed between jobs when you use
this technique because the outer extent of the entire nested job is used to define the flood
area.
