Frequently asked questions

What UV printers does this support?
Any UV printer whose RIP software reads layer-separated PDF or TIFF. That covers Mimaki, Roland, Mutoh, Epson SureColor, Compress, and most flatbed and cylindrical UV printers. Substrate presets cover common flatbed and rotary jobs.
Can I add a spot gloss layer?
Yes. Select any part of the design and tag it as spot gloss. The layer exports as a separate channel in the PDF or TIFF so your RIP software applies the varnish in a second pass.
Does the designer handle CMYK or only RGB?
Both. Work in RGB for comfort and export in CMYK with accurate ink-profile conversion. ICC profiles for common UV ink sets load as presets so color on screen matches output.
