I am using a white vinyl and try to get orange and blue to butt up together. There is always a little white between the colors. I know there is a way to do this but I have forgotten how. [Embarrassed] Would someone please refresh my memory? Thank you.

I think you want to have it ( the bleed ) to overprint also, don't you? That way it will actually print slightly over the other color and not knock-out by default.... going by memory here, it's been a while since I used that equipment.

That is right Todd. I have tried the trapline but that didn't work. Also tried the bleed and that didn't work either. I don't remember seeing a choke and spread on the software, could it be called somehting else? Thanks everyone.

"Choke/Spread" is under the "Tools" pull-down menu.

You may find this useful.....See video here.

The video is for version 3.0 but the principles are the same.

Additional information and videos for versons 2.5 and higher can be found here.

Thank you Glen. I think we discussed this a few years ago. Thanks for the video sites. A picture is worth a thousand words to me.
