Manually define a die line

Jobs can have spot colors and layers that can be defined as a die line. To manually define a die line, do the following:

Open a spooled job in one of the following ways:
- Right-click a job and select Version Editor.
- Right-click a PDF Versioned job or a Die settings job and select Preview.
- Select a PDF Versioned job or a Die settings job and click the Preview icon in the toolbar.
In the Fiery Preview window, click the Version Editor icon in the upper-right corner.
In the Version Editor window, click either the Spot colors or Layers tab. The list of spot colors and layers available in the image are listed in each tab.
Select either spot colors or layers to define as a die line.
Note: You can either select a spot color or a layer as a die line. You cannot select both.
In the Die Line section, click Select die line (pencil tip icon).
Select the spot colors or layers to use as a die line. Click OK. The selected spot colors or layers are listed in the Die Line section.
With the die lines listed in the Die Line section, you can perform the following:
- Click the Remove icon (minus sign) to delete the die line.
- Click the Eye icon to display or hide the preview of the die line. Click to change.
- If spot colors have been defined as a die line, click the Add to die library icon (plus sign) to add the die line to the die library. The die library can have default die lines available for use.
  Note: You cannot add layers that are defined as die lines to the die library.
Select the job in the Held list. Right-click and choose Process and Hold.
After the job is processed, you can open the job in Fiery ImageViewer to view the three surfaces that are generated. The three surfaces are Content, Die + content, and Die.
