CMYK
Hi,
I'been working on a RDMS->xml->fo->pdf solution for a katalog. The pdf look
good ( Thanks Karen for the improved tables!! ). Our customer want to send
it to a print-shop( offset ), but the pdf is in RGB color space and the
print-shop need it in CMYK. From the archives I have the impresion that it's
not posible to
generate pdf with fop in CMYK color space. Has somebody some advice? It's
posible to "translate" the generated pdf color space to CMYK (whitout
quality loss ) with a third party tool? Or has someone a "patched" version
of FOP with a "CMYK" flag lying around? I aprettiate every input!

Hi Ronald,
maybe the color management facilities of Acrobat 5/solution are the
solution. If I am not mistaken Acrobat is working with both color spaces,
RGB and CMYK, and is using a device independent color system for storage.
Distiller has some options on color management. I am not sure about FOP
supporting different color spaces.
Another guess would be to ask the print studio wether they can do the
conversion or have at least experiences in this field (they propably do).
