Hey Martin! Yes, and Illustrator just converts your Lab values to the Document
color space (CMYK or RGB), clipping and all. Sigh.
I don’t understand why Photoshop wouldn’t support Lab decimals. In some cases,
changing a single Lab integer can change the RGB value by 3-5 points - a big
jump! We need more precision.
We’ve got to stop using RIP color libraries and just be able to define color
with precision from the beginning.
