Hello,

I've read your reaction, and i'm very interested to continue
this. It will be my escape from WinXp for my prof. I make
stickers for outboard engine as Yamaha enz.... And for cars,
boats enz...
So i'm deadly serius about this issue.

In Corel designer the color CutContour is a spot color off
100% Cyan. The RIP software is taking this as the line to
cut the picture. When I look in a EPS from Corel Designer it
says:
%%documentprocescolor Cyan
%%documentspotcolor ( CutContour )

and at the beginning off the figure:
0.00 1.00 0.00 0.00 (CutContour) 1 X
and then the coordinates off the figure.

As you suggested i looked in the XML editor. It says that
the color CYAN is fucsia. When I change it to CutContour the
XMLeditor changed it to nothing and there is no color
anymore on the outline off the figure. I changed in the
inkscape pallette the name off fucsia in CutContour.

I believe inkscape has a intern name for CYAN? ( fucsia )

I'm no going to search the internet and facts for PSTRICKS,
but I thingk thats not the way to solve my problem.

For the record: There is no drawing programm for linux that
has the function of spotcolors. I've tried about 20 programs
but none is working. From all the programms I've tried
INSCAPE is the most complete programm. I have'n find any
proff drawing program for linux with a trial periode to test
iff they could make a good EPS or PS file. and that Roland
Versaworks or any RIP software for WinXp is accepting with
the CutContour. For WinXP there are many programs who are
working correctly. This is ( I think )somthing to be solved
in LINUX, and specialy becouse linux is much more efficiente
with memory and system time then WinXp. I'm able to make
drawings in linux with INSCAPE and than I have to export it
to eps. Import it under Windows and it go's 100% procent
preces time en my screen is frozing by every movement I make
in the drawing. I have to by a faster computer or linux
solve the problem!

I'l hope this contineus
