Subject: RGB vs. CMYK
Color management, yay! (not).
I'm going to be printing a bunch of scans, which need some adjusting in
PS. My limited knowledge suggests that it would be better to tweak the
images in RGB, then convert them to CMYK for printing (since the monitor
doesn't accurately display CMYK images, so I might be tweaking them in
the wrong direction if done in CMYK). On the other hand, if the
conversion to CMYK /does/ substantially change the color values of the
image, then perhaps I should adjust in CMYK...
Can I assume that the shoddy on-screen appearance of the CMYK images is
because of the screen's poor handling of CMYK colours, and that when
they are printed they'll look (roughly) like the RGB ones do on screen?
Any thoughts?
How are the images going to be printed?
