Peter, Select the bit O' sheet you want. Save out of Eureka as Imp OLE (last "Save as" menu option) with "Limit to Selection" ticked. Create a frame in OvPro and drop the File in it. If you want to modify the data in the OvPro document... Do... CTRL Double click over the sheet frame in OvPro and it'll be OLEd back to Eureka for mods. After any modifications made, do F3 to put it back into the OvPro document.

Oh, and by the way, I meant a Eureka > chart, not sheet! > Back to the drawing board, with apologies :-) > Best wishes, > Peter. There is a buglet in the way Eureka saves an ImpOLE chart Save out as ImpOLE in the usual way, but change its filetype to EurSheet, then drop it into the OvPro frame. Unfortunately, Saving out just the chart means you can't OLE it back into Eureka from OvPro.

In several magazines we publish we mix spotcolours, for example 80% pms 295 (red) and 40% pms 484 (blue). The only way to do so is using 80% magenta and 40% cyan (or other cymk-colours). The disadvantage is that we can't even produce a simple colourprint. Aslider in which you can give in for example four spotcolours which you can mix would be a great help. Would it be difficult to write this applet? Of course we will pay for the development.

If so, and he can get the images out individually, he'll find Graphic Converter can read Risc OS sprites and convert them to something else (in batches if necessary). Find it dead handy myself. One other option, is to find someone with an RPC and RisScript and save convert all the docs to PDFs. I'm in the process of converting a couple of hundred docs for school just in case anything happens to my RPC.

Erm, I think I said that :-) I can't readily remember now whether it's a requirement that the docs which this thread is about are editable though. Some docs are finished and never going to be edited again. In that case it makes sense to convert them to something like PDFs which are much more cross-platform. -- Pete +44 7711 501 757 ==== -- To unsubscribe from this list, email majordomo@lists.barnet.ac.uk with the words UNSUBSCRIBE ovationpro in the body of the message From owner-ovationpro@omega.barnet.ac.uk Wed Apr 3 18:37:45 2002 Received: from punt-21.mail.demon.net by pilling.demon.co.uk with SMTP id AA163967 for opro ; Wed, 03 Apr 102 18:37:43 GMT Received: from punt-2.mail.demon.net by mailstore for opro@pilling.demon.co.uk id 1017853506:20:19804:125; Wed, 03 Apr 2002 17:05:06 GMT Received: from omega.barnet.ac.uk ([194.82.200.3]) by punt-2.mail.demon.net id aa2100133; 3 Apr 2002 17:04 GMT Received: (from majordomo@localhost) by omega.barnet.ac.uk (8.11.3/8.11.3) id g33H4Zj14666 for ovationpro-list; Wed, 3 Apr 2002 18:04:35 +0100 Received: from smtp.argonet.co.uk (frogger.freedom2.net [213.161.67.203] (may be forged)) by omega.barnet.ac.uk (8.11.3/8.11.3) with ESMTP id g33H4Vi14661 for ; Wed, 3 Apr 2002 18:04:31 +0100 Received: from [62.188.144.166] (helo=62.188.144.166) by smtp.argonet.co.uk with smtp (Exim 3.33 #2) id 16soBn-00051Y-00 for ovationpro@lists.barnet.ac.uk; Wed, 03 Apr 2002 18:04:52 +0100 MIME-Version: 1.0 From: "Dr P.N.Young" To: ovationpro@lists.barnet.ac.uk Date: Wed, 03 Apr 2002 17:51:54 +0100 Subject: Re: Ovation Pro and Eureka.

Tried that, and it works as you say, but if you try to OLE it out again not only it doesn't work, but Eureka throws a wobbly, crashes and exits. On balance, I think putting the chart as a drawfile into OPro will suit my purposes better; at least you can OLE it out into Draw and do some tinkering there. Thanks for the suggestion, though.

But I think I mean something else. It does not have to be a picture. Tell me how I can produce a frame, filled with say 80% pms 295 and 40% pms 484, getting a darkred (brown) colour. Doing it with cymk (using them as separated spotcolours) and typesetting the films is easy. But how should I get a colourprint?

OK if you only want one particular mix, not if you want to use a variety of mixes of 2 spot colours. I think you'd need 2 versions of the document - one with a palette of the 2 spot colours plus all the mixes used to get an approximate colour print, the second with everything defined as 2 process colours (eg. C + M) so the separations work. > Or put two copies of the frame, one on top of the other in the document > each set to the appropriate shade of the spot needed. If the same percentage of each spot colour was wanted (probably rare) you could just set it to Registration colour as that prints on all separations - but still no colour print to show approximately what it will look like. I have a project at present which will print in 2 PMS colours and it would be helpful to be able to present inkjet output of the approximate effect of mixing spot colours. > Or the colour system would have to be extended to so that as well as > variable amounts of CMYK for each object one could have amounts of a number > of spot colours. I think this is what Arnold was asking for, and I'd appreciate it as well. I'm thinking in terms of a 4th option for colour model, re-using the CMYK colour mixer but replacing the colours with (up to the first 4) spot colours already defined in the document's palette. If fewer than 4 spot colours are defined you could keep the black slider but make other unused positions blank. Anyone with wider experience than mine - does any DTP software on any platform offer this facility?

So if you add a Pantone colour to the available palette it comes predefined in terms of either RGB or CMYK, depending on which colour model you are working in (you can edit the definition). However, as far as I am aware, there is no built-in mechanism in any software for handling two or more Pantone colours, other than the duotone (or multi-tone) facility for bit-mapped images in Photoshop. There is no concept for mixing a new colour as a combination of spot colours. We must also remember that the original enquiry was about obtaining inkjet printouts, rather than separations. One further thought, how do you cope if adding up the CMYK percentages of two or more spot colours gives results in excess of 100%?

Create a second frame of the same size and in the same position and fikl this with 40% PMS 484. Print out and top frame colour will 'knock out' the frame underneath. Now emove the top frame, so that the one below is visible. Place the same sheet of paper in the printer and print again. Should give a reasonable representation, as much as any PMS colour can be represented in CMYK. Hope that makes things clear. It can get complicated if the artwork is more complex and the number of PMS colours increases. Also the sheer amount of ink on the paper can be a problem.

So if you for example could say: cyan = 100% cyan, 56% magenta, 0% yellow and 34% black (the cymk-equivalent for pms 295), then you can use the cyan slider as a spotcolour mixer. Of course you can edit the procescolours, but then there is no possibility to mix two of them. Because when you create a new colour say 80% cyan and 40% magenta the colour is based on pure cyan and magenta and not on the edited cyan or magenta.

Which inspires the thought, if you're printing on a conventional desktop printer, you don't have real spots that you can print. At best somewhere the image will be converted to RGB or CMYK and then printed. You could do that conversion by hand, or you could let the software do it, but short of printing the page twice, you won't be able to go out of gamut.

Presuambly scale all the values down so the highest is (less than) 100% - it is the proportions which make the colour.

I guess you don't really want your DTP docs saving in a drawing format (although I admit I don't know how far SVG goes). One still needs a common format for it to be any use. Although if OP could save as SVG it would be pretty useful in its own right, even if it didn't let you take over complete editable documents. Its a good idea!

It's by no means certain that he will, but I shall try to pressure him into it. About a year ago, I turned a dozen or so files into text and GIFs for him and I've feeling he might just try fluttering his eyelashes (metaphorically speaking) and try and get me to do a few more.
