DeviceRGB, CMYK, & Gray color spaces are deprecated. You should always
use GenericRGB, etc. instead. GenericRGB represents an ideal 1.8 gamma
Mac color space that all monitors strive to achieve. Think of it
similar to sRGB but different gamma.
Sometimes, especially in prepress, users want to specify color with
exact CMYK values, which should not be corrected (changed) in any way.
It seems that on Tiger (at least with Apple's color-picker panel)
device CMYK is still in effect - if one chooses CMYK color via standard
color picker (in Cocoa app), the result is NSDeviceCMKY colorspace, and
in EPS or PDF output (saved via Cocoa) the color is set via setcmyk
command, which is device-dependent. Which is very well, since colors in
CMYK space typically must remain the same (numerically) as specified.
Is this going to remain the same? Or is this just a feature of Cocoa
apps?
