No, Andrew. They're not. I can assure you of that.
Not large format, anyway. I'd say that "most" -- meaning somewhere north of 50% -- of large format shops these days are not using CMYK at all. They're using RGB, but still using defaults, and are without a real good grounding in color spaces.
However they do get files from clients that are CMYK, and it's for these files that the RIP defaults exist. And 99.9999% of these files are SWOP. That's just the way it is.
There are of course the G7 peddlers out there in the large format industry, preaching the values of this worthless process in this industry, and some of them recommend Gracol, but from what I've seen and heard, most of them really don't understand the whole concept of workflow to even really understand why they do.
Mike
