      I need help:

      I have until now used VS outputting and sending files to a plotter without issues, but now I cannot output the pdf's correctly any more. The plotter doesn't recognize the CutContour spot color needed.

      I've attached 2x2 pdf's and VS files. The two of the latter works fine.

      To figure out the correct settings: Can you please tell the difference in the setup of the two VS's?

        @Raaskot In the second case (file_CutContour) there are no spot colors in the vstyler file
        You can see this in the Color Palette panel, where all colors are shown with a full box.
