Hi,

I'm attempting to add a CYMK TIFF to an empty PDF.  I'd like to print the
resulting PDF using the CYMK colorspace.  However, when opening the PDF
with Adobe Acrobat/Photoshop, the colorspace has switched to RGB.  I've
tried fiddling with the PdfWriter.setDefaultColorSpace without any
success.  When I do set the default colorspace, I get this setting in the
PDF:
/Resources <</ColorSpace <</DefaultCMYK /DeviceCMYK
or
/ColorSpace <</DefaultCMYK /DeviceCMYK

However, when I look at a PDF that successfully sets CYMK, the colorspace
setting looks like this:
/ColorSpace /DeviceCMYK

Several questions:
1. Does the difference between the two matter?
2. If it doesn't matter, why does't Acrobat/Photoshop read the file as CYMK?
3. I noticed that in valid CYMK PDF files, the /ColorSpace entry appears
above the binary image content, but in iText PDFs it appears below.  Any
reason for this?

I'm using iText-1.4.5.  Any hints would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Morgan
