How do I create a Spot Dimensional Clear layer?

  1. Build or import your file into a industry-standard raster or vector program, such as Photoshop or Adobe Illustrator, or InDesign.
  2. Create a new layer (in Photoshop create a new spot-color channel)
  3. Select image, text or pattern that you wish to have the Dimensional Clear coating, and make a copy of these items into the new layer or channel you created. Be sure to build in bleed .125 as needed
  4. Fill the selected area with a spot color named "DIMENSIONAL" (case sensitive) ; Set 'ink characteristics' color to (100Y,100C), specify this to overprint. 6. Make sure all other spot colors besides the "DIMENSIONAL" are converted to process (CMYK)
  5. Export final file for submission:
    • Photoshop save files as pdf (mark 'Spot Colors' when saving)
    • Illustrator save files as .eps or .pdf
    • InDesign save files as .pdf
  6. Open and check your exported file; then submit to be printed
