Omega 3 help please
I can’t figure this one out, a 2 minute job in illustrator. I need to print two colours on my edge. One being Silver Medal and the other black. I can do it in three passes but would like to be able to do it in two.
I hope the diagram below illustrates what I am trying to achieve. I want to lay a chrome background down, solid but the cutline is offset and needs to remain clear (no print).
I then need to apply a design across the top in black with shapes removed however I can’t seem to knock the designs from the black background so I can see them as chrome.
I know I can run the chrome, run the black and then run the chrome again on top to achieve this but there is a significant cost implication when your running 10,000 at 300mm.
Any suggestions, ideas greatly received.
Thanks
Jason

could you just print chrome on black vinyl?

No as it needs to go onto clear for my client. I think I have worked it out now. Thanks for the reply.

Clear fill on the circles Jason.

Thanks Fred, it applies it then to all layers including the base silver medal. I need to see the silver on a clear vinyl.
Tried it.

jason in corel its combine the black and holes to one object must be a similar command.

I don’t think you can print anything on top of the chrome color, I know you can’t do that on Summa DC3/DC4’s atleast.
So you’d need to print the black first and then overprint the chrome on top of the black.
