If colour analysis in turned on analysis of the document can happen during the document upload procedure. The analysis will find the number of pages that contain colour so that the cost of printing the document can then be more accurately calculated. Only pages that contain colour will be charged at the colour click cost when the document is printed in colour. The true cost is only calculated on body pages as front and back cover pages are calculated as specified in the product.
 | Colour analysis is not available for Zip files or paper orders. Also, products that contain impositions are not costed using colour analysis. |
The number of pages that contain colour is shown on the library page together with the total number of pages in the document.
Once a document has been uploaded into a library click 
to show the analysis.
Example showing the results when colour analysis is run on an uploaded document.
The Original Job Ticket will also show the colour split which means that PrintStation users can view the colour split in the Original tab.
When colour analysis is turned on you have the choice of 3 colour analysis models.
| 1. | Black only is monochrome. If the analysis shows that the values for Cyan, Magenta, Yellow are blank and there is only a value for black then the page is treated as being monochrome.  |
| 2. | Cyan, Magenta and Yellow equal is monochrome. When you create a PDF of a Word document the text is treated as processed black. This means that the page will appear to contain some colour as there will be values for Cyan, Magenta and Yellow. If this is not what is required you should try the model where Cyan, Magenta and Yellow equal is monochrome.  |
| 3. | Cyan, Magenta, Yellow and Black equal is monochrome. If the values are all the same then the page is treated as being monochrome.  |
