Part 2 - Create a layout proof

The following describes how to create imposed output that includes ColorFlow color control elements. In this example, you will edit an existing Prinergy VPS software layout process template to enable ColorFlow.

The recommended practice is to create an established ColorFlow output process template, however, for the purposes of this task, an established process template will be temporarily edited. The edit will be lost after the process is complete.

1. In Job Manager, select the Step and Repeats view.
2. In the Layouts pane, right-click Label_Layout and choose: Layout Proof > Virtual Proof > Virtual Proof.Imposed.600
3. In the Start Process dialog box, click Edit Process Template.
4. Enable the ColorFlow section. View all available options.
5. In the Device Name list, select sample proofer.
   Note: If you do not see the sample proofer and its device condition, activate the Show all print devices option.
6. In the Device Condition list verify that the sample condition is selected:
   sample resolution, sample substrate, Inkjet Proofer - Matchprint Inkjet, CMYK
   This sample condition is shipped with the Prinergy system.
7. Open the ColorConvert section.
8. Enable the Match Colors in 1-Up Artwork Content option.
9. Click OK.
10. In the Start Process dialog box, click OK.
11. In the Layouts pane, right-click Label_Layout and choose Open VPS files.
12. Quit Prinergy VPS after proofing.
