Please Joey! This is not to offend you, but you have obviously no clue what you are talking about. Let me repeat this once again: GIMP IS NOT A CHOICE FOR PRINT MEDIA. It does not offer CYMK or color management. Yeah, if you like "somewhat-near-the-color-we-picked"-prints, than go and do it with gimp. But this is not even close to 'high quality' as promised above. > Oh, and for colour separation, dodge that.

Oh yes Joey, sure. Because you have done it once, you know for sure that it is a good way. Of course. I work for a company where a half a dozen of workers are not doing anything other than designing print media all over the day. We produce high quality commercial products in mass amounts for big customers. No one of sane mind here would even try to produce prints using RGB tools. Every professional knows that RGB and CYMK don't offer the same color range and all sort of shit happens when you convert from RGB to CYMK. To reuse a citation from you: Been there, seen that, don't tell me it doesn't happen! You only need to have seen it once for yourself! Please Joey. I respect you for the many knowledge you have and for all the good work you do. But please don't talk about things which you obviously don't really know. Oh and another point: "Hand it over to a design studio and receive four slides". And what do you think what kind of software this design studio uses? Oh let me guess, non free one. I thought you wanted to avoid that? -- Greetings Michael -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
