Hi,

playing with the cmyk -> cmyk conversion, it turned out that the K 
channel is mostly preserved. Marti, thanks for this helpful feature.

This is sometimes a good decission.

In the results, while a linear colour space like ISO coated (ECI) shows a 
pure CMY black very dark and neutral, my physical proofer 
(EpsonStylus3000) shows there a very bad cast. And with backpreservation 
turned on this becomes a huge color shift in the ISO coated -> 
EpsonStylus3000 transformation.

What are the experiences of others?


As the current behaviour is desireable for highly analytic work, a switch 
would be welcome to be not that hard with the blackpreservation, allowing 
a soft transition from total blackpreservation to introduction of K 
colour where appropriate (for originally CMY only colours) - to preserve 
appearance.
