There are colors in the RGB spectrum that are simply outside what you
can
make with CMYK – likewise – there are colors in CMYK that are outside
what
you can make in RGB.
*** I’m not sure about that last one. 🙂 If you meant that process inks can’t always reproduce similar hues to spot inks, that would be true. If
you
have info on how the RGB colorspace has less tonal range than CMYK, please post the link.
It depends on the *specific* RGB colorspace involved. For example, this is certainly true for sRGB. If you use sRGB as your working space, and then convert to CMYK, you will never get more than 75%-85% cyan in your CMYK separations. Common knowledge, lots of links out there.
This is one of the reasons why, along with other potential device-dependant clipping issues, sRGB is not recommended for any printing – except in those cases where the machines have been dumbed down to only accept files tagged with sRGB (e.g., Fuji Frontier & Noritsu wet-process printers).
