Any other RIP will probably work better...

Thanks Steve, Client doesn9t want to spend any more cash so the Fiery has to
stay for now. Bizarre how it converts to RGB, Ive never found any reference
to this in their literature. Is it because of the 6 colour ink Photo system
that it does this?
The CMYK profile that I have built so far isnt bad, the reds are slightly
predominant and the black could do with a bit more density,.but a great
improvement over standard.I'll do an RGB and see how that comes out.
Thanks again,
Pete
