I've used Corel 12 for some time but am knew to the FULL colour process of changing objects to Bitmaps and then going through the CMYK process. I can't seem to gain control of the CMYK levels. My yellow setting is 0 and I can't gain any control of chaning it.

Any suggestions would be MOST helpful

To separate successfully you must print to postscript device ie printer/imagesetter. If postscript you can change lpi (lines per inch) and screen angle, which is probably what the 0 is after yellow. Generally the screen angle is at least 15 degrees apart but I never alter the defaults for litho printing, if you do change it it is under the advanced button, to change lpi (line screen) it is under the postscript tap - screen frequency, postscript tab may not be visable/selectable if you printer is not postscript. Assume you have printed your job to the printer and you have 4 films if you were to lay them directly on top of each other you would then get the rosette pattern. You next problem to tackle is "does what comes off the press look like the job I have on screen" that involves colour management and is another topic.
