Adobe Illustrator/InDesign Prepress Expert Needed – Create Print-Ready PDF with 5 Color Channels (CMYK + IFOIL Spot Layer)

Title: Prepress Specialist Needed — Print-Ready PDF with 5 Channels (CMYK + IFOIL Spot Color for Digital Foil) Description: I'm looking for an experienced prepress/graphic production specialist to prepare a print-ready PDF for a premium gift wrapping paper product that will be printed using a digital foil process. What I need: A single print-ready PDF containing 5 color channels: the standard CMYK channels plus one spot color channel named exactly "IFOIL" (this naming is required by the printer). The IFOIL spot color layer must be set to overprint — this is critical for the digital foil process and must be configured before export. Requirements: Proven experience with spot color separations and prepress file preparation in Adobe InDesign or Illustrator Understanding of overprint settings (Attributes panel / Ink Manager) and how to verify them in Overprint Preview or Acrobat's Output Preview Ability to work from the printer's downloadable product template (I will provide the template, a sample PDF file, and my artwork) Final deliverable verified to separate into exactly 5 plates: Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, Black, and IFOIL Deliverables: Print-ready PDF with the 5 channels described above, matching the printer's template dimensions and bleed A screenshot from Acrobat Output Preview (or equivalent) showing the 5 separations, with IFOIL overprinting correctly Source file (AI or INDD) with layers properly organized To apply, please briefly describe: your experience with spot color/foil prepress work, examples of similar projects, your turnaround time, and your quote for this project.
