Another tangent: Were either the Illustrator or FrameMaker displayed colours IDENTICAL to the printed output? I suspect both were "incorrect" in some regard. It's only the final deliverable colour that's important. And that's completely dependent on the device producing the output (except for the unfortunate content that gets mangled by the OS between colour spaces before output). I think that will account for display differences. CS2 applications use Adobes CMYK display filters. FrameMaker is stuck using Windows GDI (which is RGB). Analogy: The only important factor is the colour of the paint when it dries. NOT the colour when it's in the can, or still wet on the wall. I'll admit it is worrying painting cabinets a shockingly bright pink. But they dried to the nice dark red we were looking for. Eric L.
