Re: Softimage and CMYK

[Jason S]

It weird because if you take screenshot while in CMYK colorspace and paste in an RGB image, there you go, same blacklevels and everything as in CMYK but in RGB space. So would there be a way to "bake" color info from one colorspace to another? (assuming it's for hirez images, otherwise you could just take screenshots :P ) I find it surprising that something like photoshop cant manage to make a 1:1 conversion.

The Web converter actually does have an effect, but not perfect, it does bring the ultramarines back towards black.

Choose  one of the RGB spaces (eg. sRGB). Check blackpoint compensation and Relative Colometric. Tick Preview to see the result. Ideally you should see no to minimal color shifting, but this depends on the original color profile within the CMYK file.   I'm pretty sure this what you'll get with that web based converter. However, your problem is not to get a close color match but to change colors (ultramarine blue to black). Not sure if this is possible without manual grading but you can try unchecking black point compensation and switch to Absolute Colometric. Then switch through the different color profiles and see if any of it will change the ultramarine blue back to black. If this worked somehow, do a second conversion to sRGB with blackpoint compensation ON and relative colometric.   If this won't work, I think there is only manual color grading or have the client send you "correct" files.   sven
