I agree, however it is much better than when I started here. Users were
working in several different color spaces and adjusting color in the files
to get them to match their expectations.
User 1 would work on a file, hand it off to user 2 and the process would
start all over. Clients would be handed a file and a laser print and not be
able to reproduce without re-working the file. The client would hand back
the file for update and the process would start all over.

Hence the request for an update to the North American Prepress color setting
in the Adobe Creative Suite.
