If a document contains placed RGB images, choose RGB Source and Rendering Style
settings in the PPD.
With the exception of placed RGB images, these settings have no effect on colors
printed with FreeHand. If the document contains PANTONE-named colors, choose
the appropriate Spot Color Matching setting in the PPD.
For information about other FreeHand print options, see your FreeHand
documentation.
Saving files for importing into other documents
When saving files in FreeHand 8.x for importing into other types of documents, use
the EPS file format. FreeHand saves all color information in CMYK. The RGB Source
and Rendering Style print options have no effect on the color output of RGB artwork
saved in FreeHand 8.x and imported into other types of documents. In the case of
FreeHand files imported into Photoshop, however, vector data from the FreeHand file
is rasterized into bitmaps in Photoshop, and the final color space of the bitmap data is
determined by the color mode you set in Photoshop.
Optional color management in FreeHand
If you have additional color management requirements not offered by ColorWise, such
as managing color on devices not controlled by the Fiery 3850C, you may want to
consider using the FreeHand color management features. For more information, see
your FreeHand documentation.
CorelDRAW for Windows and Mac OS
Defining colors
Any colors defined in CorelDRAW 9.x for Windows or CorelDRAW 8.x for Mac OS
are sent to the printer in CMYK—even those defined using other color models. For
the best results, use the color definition methods described in “Choosing colors in
PostScript applications” on page 5-5.
You can control the conversion of RGB colors defined in CorelDRAW by specifying
settings in the Color Management dialog boxes. On Windows machines, the Color
Management dialog boxes are located in Tools>Color Management. On Mac OS
computers, the Color Management functions are located in Edit:Preferences:Global.
