I’ve never tried that, but I assume that the dot gain conversion would be applied twice to the original images. As for what the dot gain would be… that sounds like a math problem. If you do 15% two times, what’s the result? Hm. I think it’s tricky because dot gain is usually not a linear thing… it’s usually a curve, so it’s applied differently at 80% than at 50%… tricky. But in general, yeah, I wouldn’t run it twice on the same images. That’s just me.
