  • Use File Info to leave instructions for your print service provider.
  • Duplicate the petals to a new layer called “Varnish.”
  • Make sure that the magenta color is from a spot color swatch.
  • Create copies of the petals on top of the original artwork and fill the petals with a new spot color swatch set to overprint.
