question concerning "overprint"

question concerning "overprint"

[Thomas Epp]

Hello,

my name ist Thomas. I recently did some graphics for a math book using 
metapost and the context-macros. The context-macros turned out to be a great 
solution for all the cmyk-problems concerning professional printing. 

But now another problem occured. When I put some elements (for example fonts) 
on shaded areas, the color of the shaded areas should go on beneath the fonts 
to prevent artefacts in printing. But it doesn't, the editor told me. This is   
called "Ueberdruck" in German, which would be "overprint" literally 
translated but I don't know if this is the correct word. 

I hope you understand my problem. If so, it would be nice when you could tell 
me  if there are any options in Context to achieve what I want, it's quite 
urgent. I'm naturally a  mathematician and no specialist in computer 
graphics, so I know very little about pdf. 

Thanks 

Thomas Epp
