Here's the good news, Brad. There's nothing wrong with your PDF, except that the CMYK image is only 150 dpi (which might be what you want). It's a little faded, but PDFs never look on screen like they will print. I printed it to my Epson C80, and it looks great. Here's test you can try for yourself: Right click on the PDF and open it with Photoshop (150 dpi, CMYK). Scoot the image over to the left of your monitor. Now open your PDF and compare the two side-by-side. The Photoshop image should be slightly more intense and "brighter." Sent to the same printer, they should both appear similar. I was expecting something a lot worse. Just for fun, you might want to try making a PDF starting with a RGB image, and then make your PDF using the Standard job options (make sure the color space is RGB). This one may be brighter, I don't know. Make sure, however, if you're going to press that you're working in the CMYK color space. Hope this helps.

Just can't figure out why "everything" is faded. Thanks for taking a look.
