Yes... but it doesn't show up any problem. (Well, it just displays the same thing with overprint preview as without.) *But* in Acrobat Professional 7, doing a preflight check for CMYK+Spot output, it complains about overprint = off on all the text on tints. So I guess there is a problem in some way? This is why I am confused. Knowing what ConTeXt incantations *should* make it work would be a start, and then I can tell the printer that they have to fix it! :-) Duncan
