This is a question that's more print-oriented (sorry Edmund).
It's about bringing down the total ink coverage in a CMYK image from, say
350%, to 280% for publication work for example or, even more drastic, down
to 240% for newsprint work. The issue arises constantly in print production.
I know there are superlative tools out there like Alwan CMYK Optimizer that
do this kind of job as part of their toolset but isn't there a way to reduce
the TIL in a separation without going through some CMYK to CMYK conversion?
Whether it'd be done through optimized device link profiles or just through
a pair of ICC Output profiles?
I confess my ignorance here.
