Thanks for the reply, Ken. I am printing most often from Freehand 7 (and just installed 8) so it sounds like I should be fine with spot color. Seems like I recall a problem with selecting a low line screen for halftones with Birmy, though... or is this also application dependent? We need something in the range of 44 lpi to 65 lpi depending on the situation... (absolutely can't have the track marks in this case, though, so it may be a moot point...!)
