100% yellow 60% opacity set Multiply works best for pieces with white or light colored backgrounds in my opinion.

100% yellow 80% opacity set to Multiply (good and needed for pieces with darker stock or backgrounds).

100% yellow 100% opacity set to Multiply (still too vibrant).

I tried a 100%yellow/20% magenta set to multiply (too overpowering).I have adjusted the color percentage to determine what looks best to me and according to what pieces had higher returns. Note that I did actually test this with commercially printed pieces over a several month period.

It may seem like I pulled those number out of a hat. Primarily because colors can and do vary by manufacturer. I've never been concerned with absolute color matching. My goal is to provide the appearance of a basic highlighter. I can't say this is "right" or "correct", merely what I prefer. I use 100%Y at 60% or 70% opacity and set the blend mode to Multiply.
