Title: CMYK to CMYK Conversion question
Hello,
We have a large amount of CMYK legacy files that been created & embedded with a professionally made (Chromix) ICC profile for our West Coast offset printer. The profile was created from a target from our printers high-end Creo Spectrum digital proofer. This has been working great for many years now.
Recently we had a new profile made (again Chromix) for our new Asian offset printer who also has the Creo Spectrum digital proofer.
We notice now when we convert from the old CMYK to the new CMYK (either Relative Colormetric or Absolute) that the colors become very unsaturated and the color balance is noticeable off as well. Some of this can be corrected with a Saturation increase and Curves, but is there a more accurate way to convert these legacy files to the new profile, and get closer results? Do I need a Device Link Profile for this? And how does one use this in Photoshop to convert the CMYK legacy files?
Regards,
Joseph Yates
