WHY GET COLOR SEPARATED VECTOR FILES
Color separated output is needed mostly to make a print ready files or camera ready artwork. Final vector artwork files with just the right color mode and separation guidelines are extremely important to get the high quality output from printing devices.

HOW TO CONVERT SEE THROUGH / TRANSPARENT IMAGES INTO VECTORIZED FORMAT
In some cases, clients want to print images as 1 or 2 colors and would like to show Product?s color as 1 color. Such artwork are called “SEE THROUGH” artwork, for printing on Glass, T-shirts, Koozies etc.

VECTORIZE SPOT COLORS vs CMYK COLORS
Spot color separation is the process of separating a color image into its individual printing colors. It is used when colors are not mixed in the printing process. Each spot color is represented by it’s own specially pre-mixed inks.

CMYK color mode is used mostly for raster files. This mode is referred to as full, 4 color process. It is used to reproduce color images by creating and superimposing halftone dots from the four basic colors: cyan, magenta, yellow and black.

The vector output format depends on the output process requested by your printer.

VECTORIZE LINE ART & GRAY SCALE RASTER IMAGES
It is important to know whether the image will be printed as gray scale or line-art before the actual conversion takes place. Line art images have only two solid colors: black and white. They are generally “flat” images that
do not require depth.

Gray scale images are frequently referred to as “halftones”. They have percentages of gray, white and black tones. To contain costs, most gray scale images are re-created into line-art.

PRINTING COSTS OF VECTORIZED FILES
Spot color printing may cost less. If the file does not have a multitude of colors and you can limit the printing to 1, 2 or 3 colors, it will cost less than the 4 color or full color CMYK process. Generally there is a limit on how many spot colors you can use on your printing.

TYPICAL VECTOR FILE FORMATS
EPS – Encapsulated Postscript
AI – Adobe Illustrator
CDR – CorelDRAW

• Any single color or one color (black and white) recreation
• Use of black and white halftones to provide depth
• Using Spot Colors for screen / silk screen printing purpose
• Using Spot Colors with halftone to get more colors effect
• Multi / full color recreation of original artwork

EXAMPLE COLOR SEPARATION OF 3 SPOT COLORS

For a crisper look we used halftones of all 3 colors to vectorize this image. Printers often ask for a color separated version of your artwork for precision output on any promotional product or paper. To make color separated artwork files, we redraw each and every part of the logo as a whole object.

*Black background is used to illustrate how color separation process works.

COLOR SEPARATION OF 1st COLOR

• 1st color is CYAN. This is a color separated version of Cyan color
• When CYAN color is separated, where ever the CYAN color is present in the logo, it becomes black
• (shown as CYAN here). All other colors become white and can cut any other objects overlapping any other colors

.

COLOR SEPARATION OF 2nd COLOR

• 2nd color is RED. This is a color separated version of RED color
• When RED color is separated, where ever the RED color is present in the logo, it becomes black
• (shown as RED here). All other colors become white and can cut any other objects overlapping any other colors

.

COLOR SEPARATION OF 3rd COLOR

• 3rd and last color is YELLOW. This is sample of color separated version of YELLOW color
• When YELLOW color is separated, the background color in the logo, shows as black
• All other colors appear white and can cut any other objects overlapping any other colors
