    Default Knockout and trap

    When I create a graphic in Illustrator 10.3(Win) I can't seem to get the graphic to knockout or trap. I have try flattening it but I still have no luck. Also when I import my graphic into PageMaker it will not colour seperate when I send it to print. I have never had this problem with early versions of Illustrator. What am I doing wrong?

    Default Re: Knockout and trap

    Are you perhaps working in RGB mode?
    Are you dealing with vectors created in Illustrator, or placed pixels?
