spot colors

[Hans Hagen <pragma@wxs.nl>]

Hi,

The next beta version of context will provide spot colors and color separation.

\definecolor [spot-one] [c=.4,y=.5]
\definecolor [first]    [spot-one]  [p=1]
\definecolor [second]   [spot-one]  [p=.5]

with

\setupcolors[spot=yes] % default

you will get the appropriate spot color defs in the pdf file (with 
fallbacks), when set to "no", the cmyk (or rgb or gray) values are used.

with

\setupcolors[split=c|m|y|k|r|g|b|s|k|splot-color-name]

you get the separation (figures can be moved to such a split layer).

This works ok for metapost code too, including shading and transparency.

Hans
