Thanks to you Mojca for this nice and clean structured solution.
The conversion works ok, but the accuracy is not good enough. I have
translated some parts into etex (better accuracy in divisions using
dim|numexpr), but it's still lacks of accuracy. I will try to use a
special macro (blow up numerator) for all divisions.
I copy-pasted the code (which should be better written with e-TeX, I
suppose, or well ... lua is not that bad after all ;).

Nice and clean structured??? I hope that you're joking ... ;)

translated some parts into etex (better accuracy in divisions using
dim|numexpr), but it's still lacks of accuracy. I will try to use a
special macro (blow up numerator) for all divisions.
The problem with accuracy appears at more steps:
- I used RGB-CMY-CMYK conversion, CMY is round off to 3 decimal places
- I almost surely forgot to round the result
- (c-k)/(1-k) probably works disastrous for large values of k
- (I had quite some problems understanding how conversion between
counters and dimensions works, and even more problems to find a clean
solution - eTeX is surely a better choice)

Mojca has pointed me to the definition of \convertRGBtoCMYK (colo-ini.tex) and (if I understand it right) this is only a RGB-CMY conversion. The algorithm for the missing CMY-CMYK conversion is simple (see http://www.easyrgb.com/math.php?MATH=M13#text13 ), but exact calculation in TeX is no fun at all (at least not for me).

This is really a nice feature and the automatic color conversion works relative good. Only (so far I have seen) gray tones have a noticeable tendency to brown (Acroreader 7.09). I have tested one of those gray tones by defining it as cmyk and the result looks ok. RGB(223,223,227) CMY(0.12548, 0.12547, 0.10980) CMYK(0.01762, 0.01760, 0, 0.10980) So is there a way to get cymk instead of cmy? hmm, can you post an example ? luigi ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context
