    Hi everyone,

    everything is in the title, I currently use Apogee 6, I would like to start using a CIP3 software solution called PressPercent for my KBA press Rapida 142.
    Unfortunately, I don't have the possibility to feed PressPercent with tiff files because my Apogee doesn't allow it, So I use pdf files instead.
    My problem is that PressPercent does not recognize spot color layers and automatically include them in the CMYK separation.

    Does anyone know why and how to fix this issue?

    Thanks in advance

    Hello, I managed to solve it using an extension in ppf (apogee generates the ppf) and the program recognizes polychromy + pantone (but I had to change the program system for it to recognize) the pattern came with only 4 colors, so I created a new profile and added polychromy + 4 pantones, and now I can map pantones for any drum set.
