Re: Problem generating PDFs for the printer - it always comes out as RGB
I am not quite sure what your problem is. If it is only imported graphics you are having problem with, you should, if they are originally CMYK, save them as EPS (e.g. Photoshop images) and import the eps's into Frame. Only remember to save them with TIFF preview. If it is everything, also your lines graphics mad within FM etc, I would check what your default printer is. It should be PDFMaker (Distiller). I have had no problems printing to my CMYK printer this way, either directly from FM 7.0 or 7.2 or by PDF-ing and printing from Acrobat or Reader. HTH.

RE: Problem generating PDFs for the printer - it always comes out as RGB
Thank you all for your suggestions. I've tried to use Colour Chameleon 2.0 and also CMYK PDF Creator, but both say they cannot find or start Distiller. I have Acrobat 7.0 Pro installed - I reinstalled it, just to make sure it was all there; I checked the permissions in the registry and I seem to have the full read/write permissions that the programs require. Is there anything else that I might be doing wrong?
