I've just finished editing a document in OPW that was imported from OP (RiscOS) with font mapping. PrePress reveals one problem:
"Black not defined in CMYK model"

What it means is that Black is defined in another colour model besides CMYK. So all you need to do is change the colour model for it.


Misc->Edit Colours
Select black
Click on Edit
Click on CMYK
Click on OK
Click on OK

ISTR that the original versions of OP, before the colour supplement defaulted to defining Black in the RGB model.

Traditionally this is only a potential problem if you are going to print separations. However if you're using OPW with direct PostScript enabled the colour model will actually reach the PostScript output.
