Hi all
as you are likely well aware, there are big differences in RGB vs CMYK. This poses a problem for me/us (the people I work with). We work with RGB images, and one of the nice things about them is that you can add the G and the R to give you yellow, and as we have to superimpose images containing only Green or Red, giving the areas that co-localize a yellow tint of varying intensities. The problem we have is that we want to recreate this in CMYK (as we have to do so based on what publishers want). Is there a simple way of doing this?

thanks

Kurt

Can you do your superimposing in RGB, then use Photoshop to convert the final image to CMYK?

Do it in RGB, then convert the result to CMYK.
