trap preset

A collection of trap presets.

trap preset Properties

Property Type Access Description
black color threshold fixed r/w The minimum amount (as a percentage) of black ink required before the black width setting is applied. (Range: 0 to 100)
black density fixed r/w The neutral density value at or above which an ink is considered black. (Range: .001 to 10)
black width number or string r/w The black width. (Range depends on unit. For points: 0.0 to 8.0; picas: 0p0 to 0p8; inches: 0 to 0.1111; mm: 0 to 2.822; cm: 0 to .2822; ciceros: 0c0 to 0c7.507)
class type class read The class descriptor type.
color reduction fixed r/w The degree (as a percentage) to which components from abutting colors are used to reduce the trap color. (Range: 0 to 100) Note: 0% makes a trap whose neutral density is equal to the neutral density of the darker color.
default trap width number or string r/w The default width for trapping all colors except those involving solid black. (Range depends on unit. For points: 0.0 to 8.0; picas: 0p0 to 0p8; inches: 0 to 0.1111; mm: 0 to 2.822; cm: 0 to .2822; ciceros: 0c0 to 0c7.507)
id integer read The unique ID of the trap preset.
image placement center edges,
choke,
image neutral density,
images over spread,
r/w The trap placement between vector objects and bitmap images.
images to images boolean r/w If true, turns on trapping along the boundary of overlapping or abutting bitmap images.
index integer read The index of the trap preset within its containing object.
internal images boolean r/w If true, turns on trapping among colors within individual bitmap images.
label string r/w A property that can be set to any string.
name string r/w The name of the trap preset.
object reference trap preset read An object reference for the trap preset.
objects to images boolean r/w If true, ensures that vector objects overlap bitmap images.
one bit images boolean r/w If true, ensures that one-bit images trap to abutting objects.
parent reference read The parent of the trap preset (a application or document). Can return: application or document.
properties record r/w A property that allows setting of several properties at the same time.
sliding trap threshold fixed r/w The difference (as a percentage) between the neutral densities of abutting colors at which the trap is moved from the darker side of a color edge toward the centerline. (Range: 0 to 100)
step threshold fixed r/w The amount (as a percentage) that components of abutting colors must vary before a trap is created. (Range: 1 to 100)
trap end miter trap ends,
overlap trap ends,
r/w The shape to use at the intersection of three-way traps.
trap join miter end join,
round end join,
bevel end join,
