I would be too afraid to send RGB because, to me, there are more ways to
harm RGB colors than to harm CMYK colors. What if their Photoshop is setup
for monitorRGB or WideGamutRGB? Are their ColorSettings setup to honour
embedded profiles? Or discard them? Or, worse, automatically convert to
"SWOP"? The list is endless. I tried many times to communicate with the
print shop but that was simply not possible. So I decided to fall back on
sending CMYK, "US WebCoated SWOPv2" -- is there any other choice? And I made
sure I clearly documented my proofs accordingly with big swatches of solid
inks, even put the CIE Lab values on the proof, in case anyone could read
them.

Why would you not send in RGB?
And then, what CMYK you prefer to send there?

I know IDEAlliance is making headway in the Orient but to the point of
blindfully converting to SWOP2006_Cx profiles, I don't think so. For sure, I
would not send RGB files.
My two cents / Roger
