Colour Pallet

Build a mixing chart, ink strips, mix strips, or a pocket book from the drums on the press, then download a greyscale plate for each colour.

Composite preview

8.5 × 11 in

3 mixing grids. Across is the ink that changes left to right — its name sits on the left of each grid. Down is the ink that changes top to bottom — its name sits on the right. Zero means that ink is left off the paper. The bottom row is every ink at the same coverage. Screen mixes are an approximation. The downloaded plates are what the press uses.

Corner marks print on every plate so the colours can register.

Press chart plates

Each PDF is one drum for the large chart. Grey is coverage: black is solid ink, and a lighter grey is a lighter pass.
