What you see is not what you get. Colorsync helps, but keep your info pallette open and compare onscreen colors to cmyk pantone chips for beginners. Also ps 5.0 and later seems to abhor empty spaces in the color channels when converting from rgb to cmyk. Cyan and magenta jump up in the high end by as much as 5 to 7 percent. I have actions set for conversion to cmyk which use the curves to flatten out the top 3% of both channels. Mitch
