Print setting inconsistent in FrameMaker

[Fred Ridder]

Just to clarify one point, the specific part of the color definitions
that are inconsistent between files in this case are the print
settings: Print As and Overprint. For example, one file may be
set to print as spot color and the other to print as process color.

If your deliverables are strictly electronic (e.g. PDF files), which
print setting you use doesn't matter greatly as long as all files
agree. If you will be producing commercially printed documents,
though, the print settings are *critical*.
