Nothing. This is a problem in the way Photoshop does store CMYK JPEG. I was told this comes from a mistake by a junior programmer in early versions of Photoshop. For compatibility sake Adobe has kept this particular encoding! There is workaround, however. You can find the patched files for jpeglib at http://www.littlecms.com/newutils.htm#jpegicc http://www.littlecms.com/jccolor.c http://www.littlecms.com/jdcolor.c The precompiled windows exe is already using these ones http://www.littlecms.com/jpegicc.exe Hope this helps Martí Maria The little cms project http://www.littlecms.com [EMAIL PROTECTED] ----- Original Message ----- From: "Goossen Rijnders" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, September 27, 2002 5:43 PM Subject: jpegicc-problem > Hi, > > I used the current programs jpegicc.exe and tifficc.exe (win2K) to convert two > images in jpg and tiff-format with a lot of RGB-patches into CMYK.
