Hey all, I have went through this process once before and it worked and I remember it being very easy, but now I'm trying to duplicate the process and it isn't working.
I open the file in photoshop - change it to grayscale - create a new spot channel named Spot1 - I go to the original channel and invert it - then I copy and past the original channel into the Spot1 channel - I delete the original channel and save. This is where my issues begin. It wants me to save as a .tiff but the only options available are .psd, .psb, .eps and .raw. I've tried to export or save as a copy and .tiff is never a format that I can choose. I can't load any of those file formats into Onyx, it ends up crashing the job editor - I can actually load the .eps file but the white ink data from the file isn't coming in. Did something change in an onyx update or a photoshop update or am I missing something? Anyone have any ideas? Thanks in advance y'all! I've been reading guides and trying to figure this out but I am running in circles here.
