If I am printing from Eagle, I just make all traces, pads etc that I
want to "keep" the default red colour that Eagle uses for the top
layer, standard Durabrite ink, works well, for the REALLY small
traces as well - and print directly from Eagle to copper.

For the downloaded black PDF's I am using Photoshop to replace the
black with megenta, though I haven't perfected the levels yet, will
as soon as I work it out.
