Advanced workflows
Photoshop RGB and QuarkXPress CMYK
This workflow exemplifies the use of the RGB Separation feature of ColorWise. An
RGB image, originally saved in Photoshop, is printed to the Fiery from QuarkXPress.
To simulate how the RGB image would print on an offset press, the RGB Separation
feature of ColorWise is set to Simulation. This workflow—useful for proofing
brochures, newsletters, and other layouts—lets you maintain consistency by using the
source RGB file for multiple purposes.

This document could be created as follows:
• Create an RGB image in Photoshop and save it as Photoshop EPS.
• Place the EPS image in a QuarkXPress document.
• Create several process-colored page elements alongside the image and print.
• Use ColorWise to convert the RGB image to simulated press CMYK and to adjust
the process colors for proofing to the copier.
