How can I swap black to a spot color (HKS) in a 1c (Dot Gain Black) PDF?

Hi,
does anybody know if this is possible in Acrobat at all?
I have exported a cmyk ID file as a b&w Dot Gain x3-PDF. I would now like to swap the black color for a HKS spot color, but I don't know if this works at all.
Thanks for any help,
Ralf

Do it in InDesign. Acrobat editing is a desperate last resort for when you have lost the original and all the backups were eaten by termites. (And, I'm pretty sure you can't do this in Acrobat).

    Illustrator CS4 in windows XP.

    Maybe Li[ve trace] is not t]he way[ to go
    I have some suggestion one leave it as is and use a blending mode of multiply to give it a color background like this
    leave it as is make it a grayscale tiff import int Illustrator and color it it in Illustrator like this
    Or trace over it with the brush tool aand then give it a color ground.
    Or do the original over and do a cleaner job with no tone or a minimum of tone. Then Live trace.

  • How do I preview overprinting white ink (spot color) or a tint thereof?

    how do I preview overprinting white ink (spot color) or a tint thereof?

    Illustrator's overprint preview always assumes the translucency of offset litho inks. It doesn't accommodate per ink opacity.
    And it's not an impossibiliy; it's just not a feature of Illustrator. Photoshop does it in multi-channel mode quite handily. That's one big reason why many who design for screen printing build their multi spot color projects in Photoshop, even when the nature of the artwork itself might argue in favor of a vector drawing program.
    For example, imagine artwork involving reptile skin. A piece designed for screen printing might call for laying down a dark green ink first, overprinting a yellow-green for highlights, and overprinting a white for speculars on top of that. And if set up correctly in Photoshop, Photoshop's composite would preview it quite well. But Illustrator's Overprint Preview won't, and neither will its normal Preview.
    You could cause Illustrator's normal Preview to simulate the end results by applying a slight transparency effect to objects which have the lighter overprinting inks. But that is not the same thing as being able to specify the opacity of the ink which a spot color Swatch represents. Doing it would wreck the separations as Illustrator flattens the transparency effect.
    So it is what it is: If you want to preview an overprinting opaque ink in Illustrator, you just have to go with the normal Preview (not Overprint Preview) which previews overprinting objects as if they knockout, even when they don't.

  • How can I Create a white hot spot.

    How can I create a white hotspot in an image, i.e. A bright spot with feathered edges for a figure to walk out of, a bit like a sun?

    Create new layer, make an eliptical selection, and fill with the colour of choice.  A muted yellow perhaps.
    Use a high value Gausian blur to soften and feather the layer.  High values of blur will make the flare very thin, so if too thin, duplicate the layer.
    Use Free Transfor to size and shape the flare.
    or
    Select the figure, and copy to a new layer.
    Double click the new layer to open Layer Styles, and use Outer Glow, and some inner glow.  This is by far the better option as you can control the inner and outer glow independantly.
    or
    Open a new document with a square aspect ratio.  Make it at least as big as the other image.
    make a new layer, and make foreground colour yellow, and BG colour white
    Go Filter > Render Fibers.  Use full strength, and a lowish variance.  You are looking for strong, closely spaced vertical streaks.
    Now go Filter > Distort > Polar coordinates.  Make sure Rectangular to Polar is checked and OK it.
    Duplicate the layer to your other image document, and place behind the layer with your figure on it.
    You can play with the flare layer with curves, or maybe add a wee bit of blur and then harden with curves or levels
    If you want the flare layer to overlap the figure a bit, Ctrl (Cmd) click the figure layer to load it as a selection, and add a layer mask to the flare layer.  Move the flare layer above the figure layer.  Now feather the layer mask, using the Mask Properties panel, or use Mask Edge options in the Mask properties panel to expand, or contract the mask.
    Good luck, and let us see the end result.
