6. Colours 

We can only print in CMYK colour mode, so that means all the colours in the print file must be created or converted to CMYK colour mode. No RGB colour can be used in the file.

You can check and convert the colours to CMYK in the following way:
Main menu > File > Document Color Mode > CMYK Color

RGB – Not good CMYK – Good (NEED IMAGES FOR THIS)

Special colours like Pantone must also be converted to CMYK.

100% Black colour has to be submitted as K100 colour and not as rich black.
