[. . . ] This makes sense since the addition of a third process ink only adds "grayness" to the other two, and black ink is usually less expensive. Under Color Removal (UCR) is a compensation for not having perfect inks, i. e. , | CONTENTS | Page 35 of 79 ARTS PDF Crackerjack User Guide Printing with ARTS PDF Crackerjack those that are monochromatic. These impurities have their greatest effect in shadow areas and neutral colors. Of the two approaches, and all else being equal, GCR uses more black ink and less cyan, magenta, and yellow than UCR. Save and Load options allow you to save, name, and reuse your favorite settings. ARTS PDF Crackerjack's default is set to GCR=Maximum to constrain RGB black to the process black plate. Otherwise, text defined as RGB black will appear on all process plates. · RGB Conversion New in ARTS PDF Crackerjack 5 is the ability to handle the RGB to DeviceCMYK conversion of all objects in the PDF using ICC profiles. Selecting "Standard" will cause all RGB objects to be converted to CMYK using the Adobe PostScript "Red Book" algorithm, less any UCR/GCR. Selecting "Use UCR/GCR" will apply the current UCR/GCR settings. Choosing "Use ICC Profile" allows the user to select the Source (RGB) color profile and the Destination (CYMK) profile to control conversion of objects from RGB to CMYK. On the Macintosh, ICC profile management is done by the OS, so list selections are controlled by ColorSync. In Windows there is a folder named "ICC Profiles" located inside the ARTS PDF Crackerjack folder of your Acrobat plug-ins folder. Several default ICC profiles are put in this folder during installation. If you wish to use other profiles they must be copied into this folder. Note: If there are objects within a PDF which are tagged with an ICC profile, ARTS PDF Crackerjack will use the input (source) profile associated with each object instead of the one selected in ARTS PDF Crackerjack. 3. 9. 11. Use ARTS PDF Crackerjack DIC (Device Independent Color) This selection has an effect only when "Use ARTS PDF Crackerjack DIC" is chosen. DeviceRGB, DeviceGray, and DeviceCMYK color space data are not affected by this option. If it is known that this PDF document was prepared in a color managed environment where the application of specific color rendering intents might have been assigned to different objects, then you should consider not using this selection. Beginning with version 2015, all Adobe PostScript RIPs support the International Color Consortium concept of standard color rendering intents. This option allows you to select the color rendering that is appropriate for the subject material. This approach is consistent with Apple's ColorSync and Window's ICM device independent color management. | CONTENTS | Page 36 of 79 ARTS PDF Crackerjack User Guide Printing with ARTS PDF Crackerjack There are four predefined renderings: Relative Colormetric, Perceptual, Saturation, and Absolute Colormetric.
