what shade/colour is pms 711?

Is the file saved as a CMYK document? or in RGB? What kind of profile are you using. PANTONE 711 blended into a pure RGB black looks like it has potential to print out the color range because of that transition.

Hi Rob! and all.
PMS 711 is kind of a warm red and i have tried separating this into cmyk and rgb but i get the same result. -
You could try to turn all items into a single bitmap before output.

I’ve had problems with vector gradients in Colorip and as Peter said saving it as a bitmap (.jpg) cured the problem.
You will get a colour shift though unless everything is spot on in you colour calibration.
