Have you talked with the printer that will be doing the job? If the
job is simply 3 spot colors and there are no contones/images that
need to be separated for the 3 spot colors, you probably don't need a
profile at all. You would simply want to set your Spot Color dot
gain setting in the various Adobe apps to something appropriate for
flexo printing. Even if the printer does not have a profile for you,
they should be able to tell what sort of dot gain to expect (probably
around 30-40% for flexo but I'm guessing).
As for screen angles, if you're simply providing them the file for
them to output, I'd let them choose the screen angles that would be
most appropriate for the job. They should be the experts after all.

Hello,
I have a problem with a job that I must prepare for flexo printing.
Is the first time when I'm doing something like this and I need to
know how I must prepare this job: I don't have the printer
profile : how to build a custom one in PM5 ?, screen angles for
output, etc. The job is in 3 spot colors
Thanks
