Subject: Using CMYK for print jobs
Date: Fri, 25 Oct 2013 22:09:24 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20131025220924.3020@binki> (raw)



A printer I want to use only handles files which use CMYK colorspace/model..

I tried building my mkiv file using  cmyk=yes, as shown below:

\setupcolors[state=start, rgb=no, cmyk=yes, overprint=yes]


Using ImageMagick's identify program to check the resulting file it show the following:
 Resolution: 72x72
  Print size: 3.58333x2.16667
  Units: Undefined
  Type: PaletteMatte
  Endianess: Undefined
  Colorspace: RGBde delegate for this image format `/home/user_a' @ error/constitut  Depth: 16/8-bit.
  Channel depth:
    red: 8-bit
    green: 8-bit
    blue: 8-bit
    alpha: 1-bit

GIMP also shows an RGB model for the resulting pdf file. 
Also is this mention of pixel resultion of 72x72 correct or useful?
     I tried to get a 300 dpi resolution for output.

Any ideas and advice would be appreciated.
