Hi Lea,

Prince has crude support for overprinting, but only for named colors at
the moment. So you can do something like this:
@prince-color MySpecialColor {
alternate-color: device-cmyk(...)
}
p {
background: device-cmyk(...);
color: prince-color(MySpecialColor, overprint)
}
We could certainly add the overprint flag to the device-cmyk() color
function, that would be more straightforward than a new property or an
entirely new mechanism for manipulating overprint.
Best regards,
Michael
