CMJN CMYK format

Postby petitours » Thu Jan 31, 2013 4:20 am

Hello everybody

How can I export Bitmap, pdf or other... in CMJN color format with Inkscape ?
I made a beautiful presentation card but the blues become very dull and dark when I change the color profile to CMYK (with Krita).
With the RGB format, printer produces a color that closely resembles the results of my conversion, dull and dark...

We can define the color of objects in CMJN, export with this definition is probably possible...

thank you in advance

I progress a little ...

I found the tool to control the icc profile ! Now I know why my blue can not be printed in an other color than purple...

but I can not find a color in the gamut. Inkscape tells me that it is not in the gamut but it don't propose me a color in the gamut !

How can I find a blue, compatible with my icc profile (ISOcoated_v2_eci.icc) ?

thank you
