Assign a gradation

If your spot color library contains only solid ink values, you can assign a gradation to define the tone value curve of the ink. If a color already has defined tints, you can assign a different gradation to redefine the tone value behavior.

1. On the Database tabbed page, under Characterizations, select an existing spot color library and open it.
2. In the Inks group, select all colors you want to assign the same gradation.
3. Click the Select Gradation button above the ink list.
   The Select Gradation from Database dialog box will be displayed. It will show only gradations of the type Tonecurve.
4. Select a gradation from the list and confirm with OK.
