Registration black in Corel?
« on: March 31, 2015, 11:40:17 AM »
Illustrator has a Registration black by default. You select that when you want one element (such as registration marks and job name) to be printed on all separations. You only need to do that one time, on one separation and it gets applied on all.


Does Corel have the same thing?  If so, Please describe where it is located, how to bring it up.


Thanks much!

It's in the Models tab. Choose Registration Color at the bottom of the dropdown.

Sparkie,  I just noticed that this is a Color Model. Like a color made up of CMYK 100% is each,  Does this work on using it for spot colors like to print out on each sep even tho the seps are not CMYK?

I have always used my own 1/4' circle with a  cross type bullseyes that I created in Registration Color, and either, import as a pdf, or open in a cdr template. At any rate, always reg color, but good info in this thread, even for us old Corelians

have you tried making your  reg mark a symbol and keeping it in the symbol manager.    I just found the symbol manager in the ver 16   and for items which you use every single day it is awesome for speed and you can save it in the reg color and drop in with 1 click.

I have a lot of product templates(t2 button jersey, full button jersey, staff shirts baseball pants on and on) which are vector based.   I used to have them as a template or I would import but my collect was getting so large I had to find a better way to manage them and the symbol feature is just the thing.

I'll check it out, but as long as these one color jobs keep taking over most of my business, it could be a while before I need them again! LOL!

The Symbol Manager docker is great.  If you edit a symbol in the manager it will update all symbols which is a quick way to change the templates throughout a document with multiple instances. A very helpful tool. Great for working with logos.

honestly the BEST way of doing reg marks is this macro:
http://oberonplace.com/vba/drawmacros/cropmarksh.htm

it says X5, but a lot of them work on X6 as well.

I have never really messed with the symbol manager...i think i need to give that a go.
