I want my document to have only two colors (using CMYK). Let's say black and Cyan. For the Cyan I want to have a tint. Will the following code work or the printshop will tell me that these are more than two colors? (using XelaTeX)

 \definecolor{vividcolor}{cmyk}{1,0,0,0}
 \definecolor{simplecolor}{cmyk}{0.5,0,0,0}
  • I assume your output format is PDF? Please, take a look here: http://tex.stackexchange.com/a/9973/13450 and here tex.stackexchange.com/a/99666/13450 – alexkelbo Mar 11 '16 at 14:32

That will be fine. Both colours will appear on a single plate (CYAN) --- the first as a solid, the second as a 50% screen.
