I’ll keep this short. (p.s. THIS Answer started out short, but I often go back and reread my answers, and proof read and make corrections or additions as an after thought and so the answer gets longer but more thorough)You don’t mention what state you’re in. So I’ll answer as if you were in California because that’s where I’m located.In CA, you can do what’s called ”Trial-by-Written-Declaration” (TBWD). Translation: you can write up your argument in a brief and submit that to the court for adjudication.You will have to post Bail aka the cost of the Ticket fine. When you WIN they will return the Bail amount.That means you type up your argument and submit that to the court. That’s call a brief of Pleading.You are the Defendant.And the Cop / Deputy / Highway Patrol / State police.So the top left will look like this.John Doe123 Elm StCalifornia City, CA 91111(213) 555–6767Defendantv.California Highway Patrol (Officer Big Jerk)(and do put your phone number in case the court clerk needs to contact you to schedule or re-schedule a court date.In California you also have to fill out form TR-205 formTrial by Written Declarationhttps://www.courts.ca.gov/documents/tr205.pdfaka TR-205 form.Then the court will require the cop to do the same.TIP: And when you do, in Microsoft word, there is a Template, use a Professional grade template like that the left side is 1 1/2 or double-line spaced and numbered. Google that if you don’t know how to find the Template.It looks like this. E.g Make it Professional looking. State who you are, that you declare the following, You are “John Doe - Defendant” and he’s / she’s whatever police / deputy / highway patrol Dept.Put in the correct name and address of the court, It’s usually on the back side or bottom of the citation, or it will be listed in the courtesy notice or letter you receive in the mail.Legal pleading paper (28 lines)http://www.caed.uscourts.gov/caednew/assets/File/Pleading%20paper%20instructions.pdfhttp://www.caed.uscourts.gov/caednew/assets/File/Pleading%20paper%20instructions.pdfLegal Pleading TemplatesOn the Cover First page, put your name and phone number, (in case the court Clerk wants to contact you), And the citation # as the Case number.Sign the last page, put your name and phone number, (in case the court Clerk wants to contact you)A lot of times, most courts you can check this online as well with that Court system.=========================================================If you win, it’s done, case and citation dismissed.If you lose, you have 10-days to request with the ‘court-clerk’ a Trial-de-Novo. That’s Latin for “New Trial”.Then on that day if the cop / deputy / highway patrolman shows up, you can argue the same points or request traffic school.Or where you don’t have Trial-by-Declaration in your state. Go and argue it.There’s something called a “Limit Line”.THAT MEANS: E.g. your at a traffic signal red light wait for it to change. The first line of the two white lines, is the Limit Line. where you cross that, you are NOW considered in the Intersection.It’s the same for a Speed Limit sign. And it can work in both ways or direction.So you were in a 35 mph speed limit approaching a 45 mph speed limit zone.Your Argue these exact words: “The law is reasonable (key word) and as a reasonable person I’m permitted to accelerate to get up to the new higher speed limit that I can see I’m approaching so I’m in the reasonable flow of traffic.” “I performed a reasonable acceleration to the NEW SPEED LIMIT”!Technically, that HIGHER speed limit that AS you are approaching is not effective until the “front-of-your-car” PASSES that 45 mph speed limit “sign”. That’s your LIMIT-LINE. That’s when that speed limit is effective. But you can reasonable accelerate up to the sign.“In the interest of Justice, where the law interpretation and the drive are both reasonable, Motion to Dismiss, Because there is reasonable doubt!”Go on Google maps, and print out both. Google maps has the Satellite pictures where their map car is on the road, use that to show the judge. That the speed limit was Transitioning up, higher. Enter that as evidence of material fact.If the cop / deputy, says anything say, this, “Objection, as hearsay for purposes of appeal”.You tell the court (Judge) the analogy is this, if you were driving in a higher speed limit say the reversal 45 mph speed limit, and up ahead is a 35 mph speed limit, the law is reasonable for a reasonable person to gently brake or take the foot off of the accelerator and let the car coast down. You shouldn’t have to have slam on your brakes.Technically, it works the same in reverse, that LOWER speed limit that AS you are approaching is not effective until the “front-of-your-car” PASSES that 35 mph speed limit. That’s your LIMIT-LINE. That’s when that speed limit is effective. But you can reasonable accelerate up to the sign.And many courts, many courts use these “Monkeys” who are nothing more then Pro-Temp Commissioners; they’re just volunteer attorneys. And to get favoritism with Law Enforcement, these “Monkeys” often just “rubber-stamp” Whatever the Cop says, when they should error on the side of the defendant.These Commissioners try to get Favoritism with law enforcement because they have aspirations to become a judge one day, and getting an appointment as a judge someday and they want law enforcement to “endorse them” as if they are tough on crime; as if a traffic ticket is a “crime”. It’s not, traffic tickets are not crimes, They are called “Strict Liability”. They are not a Felony nor are they even Misdemeanors.So you say “objection” for purposes of Appeals. I have appealed traffic court cases where I lost at Trial , and had the case overturned and dismissed on appeal. When you appeal a court case; it goes to a “banc” of 3 judge panel. And the DA / District Attorney prosecutor must make a response. So, (The DA) he’s / she’s probably swamped with higher profile such as Felony, Robbery, Murder, Rape, whatever. And they’ll grant the motion to dismiss, but you still have to follow format and form and function in your arguments. I once appealed a case and told the appeals panel the Traffic Court judge was biased, racist, prejudice vs. defendants, and the case was dismissed; because it wasn’t only me. I wrote what I observed at trial on how the judge treated every defendant not just me, and the Appeals court agreed. He convicted everybody without truly listening or giving weight to each persons argument as if they were all LIARS and only the cop was telling truth. Judges and especially Commissioners can be ignorant or corrupt like anything else in life, and you have to fight that. This is how.Ask for a REAL JUDGE: Not a Commissioner! They may tell you, you’ll have to wait, you tell them sure. It’s your right to have a real judge.Bring this, print it out and read it if you have to or are nervous!!!Good Luck!If you like this answer give me an upvote below please, ThanksNote: added later as an after thought! I often go back and edit or re-edit what I wrote when many people upvote my answers.Here’s a way to get out of a Radar speeding ticket. Or some ways to get out of a speeding ticket. I do this for a living so trust me.Most cops stand next to their car or sit in their car with their Radar / Lidar on the side of the road with their car engines running. So in the scenario above; the Cop tags your car with his Radar / Lidar, throws the device or puts it down in the car, then rev’s his engine and chases after you. So at the point the front end of your car hits the “Posted Speed Limit Sign” at the “Limit Line” he has not idea how fast your were going, because he already dropped the radar and sped up to prepare to apprehend you. Say this in court: “Motion to Dismiss” for lack of evidence to prosecute. You had slowed down to anticipate the lower speed limit or higher speed limit.2. And if more than one ticket is issued from that exact spot. (so ask how many tickets has he issued from that spot that day??? or How many tickets has he issued from that spot in the past Six Months). = Then that constitutes as a “Speed Trap” and that’s against Federal and State Anti-Speed trap laws that inhibit Interstate & Intrastate commerce. In essence, he can only issue one ticket from that location, then he has to move on and find a different spot.3. Put them on notice that you will obtain a “Class Action” attorney and sue under class action for Anti-Commerce violation of speed-trap laws. California and the Federal Gov’t both have statutes against “Speed Trap(s)”.4. Then do a “Subpoena” or “Motion for Discovery” or “Motion for Production” or better yet, do all of the above. The purpose is to “inundate” the Cop to produce all these “Culpatory or Exculpatory” evidence. Each road, that is being used to issue speeding tickets on must have been surveyed by the agency that owns that road (in the past 7 years). Subpoena that report in it’s entirety. Make him produce it as proof.5. Then do a “Subpoena” or “Motion for Discovery” or “Motion for Production” or better yet, do all of the above. The purpose is to “inundate” the Cop to produce all these “Culpatory or Exculpatory” evidence. Each Radar / Lidar, that is being used to issue speeding tickets on must have been “Calibrated” before and after use by the agency (Cop / Deputy / Highway Patrolman) that operates that device. Subpoena that report in it’s entirety. Make him produce it as proof.6. Then do a “Subpoena” or “Motion for Discovery” or “Motion for Production” or better yet, do all of the above. The purpose is to “inundate” the Cop to produce all these “Culpatory or Exculpatory” evidence. Each Radar / Lidar, that is being used to issue speeding tickets on (The Operator E.g. the Cop) must have been “Trained Properly” by the agency that owns that road device. Subpoena that training report in it’s entirety. Make him produce it as proof.7. Then do a “Subpoena” or “Motion for Discovery” or “Motion for Production” or better yet, do all of the above. The purpose is to “inundate” the Cop to produce all these “Culpatory or Exculpatory” evidence. Each Radar / Lidar, that is being used to issue speeding tickets on (The Operator E.g. the Cop) must have been “wiped” of the previous speed of the previous car he just issued a citation to by the Cop that operates that device. Subpoena that report in it’s entirety. Make him produce it as proof.10. So most cops are “Lazy” and once you do that, they’ll either “not” show up or not give you anything. At which point, you do the following below.11. Here’s the catch. Where the Cop / Deputy / Highway Patrolman doesn’t produce ALL of the items above per your “Subpoena” or “Subpoena” or “Motion for Discovery” or “Motion for Production”??? You say or enter with the court.“Motion to Dismiss, this officer or law enforcement “Failed” to produce as part of the “Subpoena” or “Subpoena” or “Motion for Discovery” or “Motion for Production” Culpatory and Exculpatory Evidence, The court must rule in favor of defendant for lack of evidence to prosecute.”Once you did the “Subpoena” or “Subpoena” or “Motion for Discovery” or “Motion for Production” FOR ALL THE ITEMS LISTED ABOVE??? He has to comply and prove that he is in compliance with those demands!!!See, the Gov’t has the “burden of proof” not you!!! And he’s the Gov’t Star witness. Any one of those could be or have evidence that was in your favor and he failed to produce it to create a “Reasonable Doubt” (Key Buzzword) in the eyes of the court!Make him / her earn their pay!!! Make them work!!! Because with that ticket, they’re trying to take money away from your to feed yourself, feed your family, your kids. Make them earn it!If you like this answer give me an upvote below please, Thanks

To design and create electronics in general and printed circuit boards (PCBs) in particular, engineers need to know their way around circuit design, the latest circuit components – and have some experience in working with PCB design software. If you are still uncertain about the software part (namely, which solution you should be working with), this article is for you.TOP PCB DESIGN APPLICATIONS: EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOWBelow you can take a closer look at our list of top PCB design applications and their detailed overviews.Altium Designer and Its Simplified Versions, Circuit Studio & Circuit MakerAltium Designer is considered a premium solution. This is not surprising considering that its price exceeds $7,000. Altium is well-known among full-time circuit board designers whose employers can pay for such an expensive solution. As for freelancers, they prefer using lower-cost software.Nevertheless, even at the risk of being subjective, we say that Altium is the best solution out there (and we’ve tried a lot of them before choosing this one). Here are four key reasons:Altium functionality can support even the most experienced and demanding users. The latest version of Altium Designer includes a complete set of the features needed for designing, editing, and debugging circuit board-based projects. For instance, the editor allows modeling multi-hierarchical and multi-channel schemes of any complexity, as well as designing mixed-signal integrated circuits. In-built libraries are impressive as well: they contain more than 90,000 ready-to-use components (some of them can even help you create 3D objects using the C3D core). Besides this, Altium supports bi-directional work with mechanic details and component models in the STEP format – they can be imported from mechanical automated design systems.Altium has a well-thought-out user interface (not a matched by the alternatives). In order to appreciate this advantage to the fullest, it’s enough to take a look at its competitors. Interface usability is a crucial factor, especially for those working with a solution on a daily basis. Besides, such an intuitive interface makes beginners’ training a lot easier.Integration with SolidWorks. You can open any circuit board scheme created with SolidWorks and work on it without any loss in quality or the need to convert it. This is an extremely important point as any device consists not only of circuit boards but also the body. In turn, such integration mitigates the risk of errors and mistakes during the design and manufacturing of press molds (and the price of a single press mold can run to several thousand US dollars).The community and its support are huge. If you have some difficulties in using Altium Designer, finding the solution is not going to be a problem. There are many US and Eastern European designers using this solution and sharing their experience online. As a result, you won’t even need to go back to the manual in most cases – you can find the answer to your question on the Internet in a matter of seconds.There are two notable low-cost versions of Altium Designer: Circuit Studio and Circuit Maker. However, they are only suitable for modeling the simplest of circuit boards. In particular, if you try to place several elements on the board and move them simultaneously in Circuit Studio, you’ll see that some elements lose their connections with one another. Of course, this is awful as you’ll need to repeat your actions again and again.As for Circuit Maker, real users’ reviews state that it’s pretty raw and inconvenient in use; it apparently also has some significant performance issues. On the other hand, Circuit Maker comes with a cloud-based component library integrated with Ciiva search. This allows the creation of components with an integrated connection to the stores.All in all, these two are good enough solutions that fulfill their primary tasks, but they won’t be suitable for those who aren’t ready to tolerate the issues described above.EAGLELet’s start with stating that hobbyists are the main target group of this PCB design solution. EAGLE suits only the simplest projects. On the other hand, if you are looking for something inexpensive and simple in use, EAGLE CAD will be a good option for you. Let’s take a quick look at its main features:Vast functionality. EAGLE features are absolutely enough for beginners. This solution includes a pretty convenient editor with a limited yet useful set of features. In particular, it includes automatic requirements checker for modern electronic devices. The solution also allows the creation of connection schemes for PCBs and synchronizing them with one another. Finally, EAGLE includes differential pair routing. So, this solution will be enough for a beginner or a hobbyist.Mildly convenient user interface. The EAGLE interface is not that well thought-out in comparison with the previous solution. Nevertheless, we can’t help appreciating a simple and easy-to-understand interface with quite a wide range of features. This will be enough for working on small-scale projects.Low learning curve. EAGLE is one of the most popular solutions for novices in circuit board design. This is why it’s not surprising that it has a robust community online. What is also worth mentioning is that there are a number of YouTube video tutorials that can help you master the solution.Flexible pricing. This software comes in different versions for purchase: Freeware, Eagle Learn, Eagle Make and Eagle Business. Each of the versions comes at its own subscription fee (it varies between $15 and $65 per month).Mentor GraphicsMentor Graphics is another popular solution. It is an all-in-one tool for designing PCBs that includes everything you may need for creating schemes, placing components, tracing, modeling, checking electromagnetic compatibility and signal integrity, and carrying out final preparation for manufacturing. We should point out the following features of this solution:Robust functionality. The Xpedition platform is one of the most popular Mentor Graphics products on the market. In its various versions (PADS Professional or Xpedition itself), this PCB design platform will find its application in designing complex electronic devices. The solution’s key features include support for designing projects with multiple PCBs, 3D modeling, various tracing modes, hierarchical groups, checking the manufacturing process for testability and accuracy, and electronic data management functionality.Easy-to-understand interface. Users point out that PADS is one of the easiest to understand and use solutions in its niche.Special features for speeding up the design process. This solution includes the Veloce Strato feature that allows speeding up the modeling process several times while increasing its accuracy.OrCADOrCAD is our next globally-known solution for designing PCBs. Among its key features are:Advanced features for engineers. OrCAD comes with special PSpice extensions for end-to-end circuit modeling. Moreover, its latest version allows users to create databases for integrated circuits. Finally, OrCAD CIS provides you with fast and simple circuit parameter integration with the database – this speeds up the collaboration process when there is a team working on a project.Medium learning curve. OrCAD is definitely not the easiest-to-master solution in its niche; however, it is not the most difficult either. On the other hand, the functionality available for its users is worth the time spent on mastering the solution.Automatic routing available. OrCAD comes with SPECCTRA, which is the best option for automatic routing.3D rendering. This solution allows for 3D rendering; however, its quality is not as impressive as that of the solutions discussed above.This PCB design solution is not without its drawbacks. In particular, some users point out that OrCAD creates a separate application for each function. This is inconvenient as you need to switch between multiple windows even if you are working on one PCB.KiCADKiCAD is one more popular solution that, like EAGLE, will be a good fit for those who are just starting their journey in modeling circuit boards or don’t want to spend a small fortune on a small-scale project. Here are some of this solution’s benefits:Absolutely free. This is, perhaps, the most considerable pro of this solution which can be a good excuse for its steep learning curve. Notably, KiCAD is available for all of the most popular OSs: Linux, Windows, and Mac OS X.A wide range of opportunities for its users. Apart from the standard features, KiCAD functionality includes checking the compliance with the requirements for circuit boards, creating both simple and complex hierarchical systems, modeling 3D schemes, and importing and exporting STEP models.Convenient editor. The KiCAD editor includes a wide range of hotkeys. In addition, you will find features for implementing routes, automatic redirection, differential pairs settings, and synchronization that will automatically implement the changes after tracing.CadenceLike Altium Designer, Allegro Cadence is one of the most advanced and convenient-to-use automated electronics design systems. It is accessed and managed via the command line – some users find this peculiarity its main inconvenience.Here are some of the key Cadence benefits:In-built features to facilitate achieving compliance with modern high-speed digital interfaces. Allegro and its in-built feature, High­Speed, extends the set of controlled electrical constraints, which can be used to achieve maximum signal integrity and ensure accurate temporal behavior, all within the shortest timescale. In addition, this solution includes such powerful tools as Auto­interactive Delay Tuning, Auto­Interactive Phase Tuning, Auto­Interactive Convert Corner, Timing Vision and so on.Direct synchronization. Cadence’s powerful synchronization tools automatically implement changes made to the main part of the project into all of its versions. You can determine the desired version of the project during any design stage – when creating the list of raw materials, modeling or preparing the data required for manufacturing. You can do it using either the editor or the scheme input.Low system requirements. Allegro Cadence stands out among its competitors due to its low system requirements. Among all the other professional-oriented design systems, only Cadence can work on a single-core processor. The solution is fully compatible with Windows OS, starting from Windows XP.One of Cadence’s main drawbacks is the high subscription fee (although it’s lower than Altium’s cost) – it amounts to approximately $4,000. This limits the solution’s affordability not only for hobbyists but even for large companies specializing in PCB design and interested in increasing their employees’ productivity.WHAT PCB DESIGN SOFTWARE DO WE USE IN HOUSE?On our behalf, we’d like to point out that we’ve chosen Altium after a long trial and error process. Despite its high price, this solution is worth every dollar spent on it – it’s extremely convenient, it has robust functionality, and it didn’t require our employees to spend too much time mastering it.In particular, we created the circuit boards for one of our largest-scale and most ambitious projects, Auxiliary In-Built Radio System with Dedicated Radio Console, using Altium.PCB DESIGN SOFTWARE: SEE COMPARISON TABLE

PDF is an ISO standard. Standards exist to ensure that if one complies, their files are as good as any that also comply. Any RIP in any printer will interpret them identically. So there is nothing inherently specific to InDesign for you to be aware of. Just use a printer or RIP with a modern PDF rendering engine and you should be fine.Now, if any problems pop up, here are a few points to ponder:Bad/incomplete compliance to the standard. A few things here. First, Adobe (specifically John Warnock, one of the two co-founders) originally created the PDF specification, which was later donated to ISO. So, the level of support of its own standard by Adobe is an oxymoron, and it was already in full use by Adobe before it was open to anyone else. Still, PDF is a huge specification. Not all of it caters to print tasks, and when it comes to printing, some bells and whistles become an unnecessary bloat and overhead that every supporter of the standard must still comply with, and that’s a lot of work. To simplify things, just the print-relevant features of PDF standards of various versions were subset for the task and defined a substandard, PDF/X (X for eXchange) to unambiguously communicate print information. So tip #1: export from InDesign as PDF/X, not just a PDF with random settings.Bugs. They happen. In software as well as in RIPs. There isn’t much going on about prepress tech in the last 10 years, so I expect most bugs to be fixed on Adobe side. When in doubt if InDesign or the RIP is to blame, just rasterize your troubled PDF in Photoshop. If you get the same problems as on your RIP or printout, it’s InDesign (or, rather, usually one of the linked graphics). If the Photoshop simulation is clean, blame the RIP.Opt for native structures and simplicity. It’s a general principle that will help you a lot. It falls into three categories:Avoid PostScript/EPS/Distiller. When PDF was still the new kid on the block, conversion tools were needed to drive use and adoption. And to visualise the king of print, PostScript. Come 1992, meet Acrobat Distiller. PostScript was supported by professional printers and RIPs; PDF was not; prepress guys were weary of it and considered PostScript proven and reliable. Those times are gone. You will not find a RIP on the market in 2018 that wouldn’t support PDF natively. And for native processors you want natively generated PDF docs, meaning InDesign’s export to PDF functionality. What it does is match every page element to a corresponding PDF object in the most efficient way. But in the old days there were other ways, which some print shops sometimes insisted on: either export to PS and Distill, or Print to PS and Distill. Now that is like translating from English to Chinese to French. Consider the difference in quality vs a direct English to French translation — same here. It creates suboptimal awkward structures dictated by PS that simply carry over to PDF ignoring all the optimisations of the format. Such PDFs are heavier and require much more processing resources, which may even lead to out-of-memory errors in some rather predictable situations like using repeating patterns. So, always opt for direct PDF export out of InDesign. A couple caveats though: sometimes you will receive a PDF from a 3rd party where source files cannot be found and nothing can be fixed, and it’s causing you trouble. In that case, exporting to PS and redistilling (“refrying" in prepress lingo) may be a helpful penultimate resort (the last and least desired one being to rasterize the entire page). Also, in order to have InDesign rather than RIP render trapping for you on your conditions and for no extra charge, you must use the print to separations functionality and save separations as PostScript (which you can distill to PDF and submit as such). Haven’t had to use that for a while, but I had to mention.Managing transparency. That was a subject of holy wars about 10 years ago, I hope this got easier lately. Anyway, transparency is something PS never really supported (only on paper shortly before it stopped developing) so its diehards at print shops with investments in old RIPs required that no transparency effects are allowed. Adobe listened, and Acrobat learned to “flatten” transparency: see through all the layered effects, calculate the areas of the same colour and draw matching objects for those, rasterize the rest piece by piece. That worked, but created a huge number of minuscule objects in a PDF that required heavy processing and lots of memory (and even produced visual artefacts in some cases). Technologies caught up, but some print shops still resisted the change. Short advice: demand that the print shop accepts PDF v1.5+ with support of transparency. That way you will be creating slick lightweight color-manageable PDFs that allow touch-ups if needed. Longer version: if someone dictates that you use a decade-old technology, they are just not professional. Not even curious enough to be able to solve any of your problems should they arise. If their software can do that, they must have tried everything on it a long time ago, and have developed a set of safe practices that save you time and increase your efficiency. Theirs, too.Fonts vs. curves. Also to do with print shop stubbornness, some require that all fonts are outlined (converted to curves). This is a bad idea. First, it increases complexity by creating thousands of new objects. Second, it precludes any possibility of PDF touch-ups. Third, without some very competent RIP tweaking (and at the expense of extra processing resources) this thickens the letters, which becomes very noticeable at small sizes. It is also a frequent side effect of transparency flattening.Managing color. Now this is a big topic. I’ll only mention the most important things that matter in this context:Avoid mixing RGB and CMYK objects on one spread. With proper color management this may be fine, InDesign will follow your CM setup to perfectly convert from one to another. However, when you export your PDF, you need to be extra careful about this. Either you let InDesign convert everything to CMYK for you, and that’s a good approach if your CM is professionally set up. Or, you set it up to tag every object with a color profile so a RIP on the other end will know how to convert for you. This in theory should work, but has lots of caveats and is less safe. First, because you can’t control the CM setup on the RIP and whether it is set to respect and use the embedded profiles at all. Second, it may result in CMYK getting reconverted to another CMYK via Lab, resulting in crisp black text becoming halftone-screened and misregistering on all 4 separations, and your clear primaries receiving some leakage from other base colors. If you don’t do either, the result is completely unpredictable. My suggestion is: text, vectors, transparency effects in CMYK (as defined by your print process’s ICC profile in Color Settings); images as RGB because you will want to reuse them elsewhere without shrinking the gamut to that of CMYK (use a wider than CMYK but not too wide editing space profile like eciRGB_v2 or Adobe RGB). Output to PDF in Convert to CMYK (Preserve Numbers) mode.Spot colors. Understand them and use wisely. I’d say, only use them when you plan to print with these extra inks. Otherwise you’ll be doing a simulation only, and usually a very approximate one. In that case just set them up as regular swatches (or global colors in Illustrator), not as spot inks — you’ll save yourself a lot of trouble. Now, if you do want extra inks, remember that they will output each to their own plate, in black (meaning btw that you can change your mind about the actual ink even after the plates were made). So the color you assign to them in InDesign can be completely arbitrary. So, don’t aim for any CMYK formulas you will find for a particular PANTONE. Stick with the Lab definitions which are usually in the built-in swatch collections: it won’t affect your CMYK printing, but will allow you to simulate that color as closely as possible using your monitor’s gamut and not that of your CMYK print process.Added thanks to a very appropriate reminder in the comments: avoid mixing transparency with spot colors. It can be done, but like CM it's a big separate topic.HTH. Happy printing
