I looked at the Gimp-plugin on source forge and it mentions CMY printing for some inkjet style printers, but not sure if this is the same thing (not really knowing a whole lot about this). Forgive me if I've missed something, I was asked this by a friend (who uses Linux, but not GIMP for this reason). Hi. I'm the project lead for the gimp-print project on sourceforge. CMYK is a bit of an oddball subject. Partly this is because there are so many variants (CMY, CMYK, CcMmYK, CcMmYy, CcMmYyK), and partly because (to the best of my knowledge) this color space is really only useful in the context of specific output devices, which is what the print plugin deals with. What specifically would your friend like? -- Robert Krawitz <rlk@xxxxxxxxxxxx> http://www.tiac.net/users/rlk/ Tall Clubs International -- http://www.tall.org/ or 1-888-IM-TALL-2 Member of the League for Programming Freedom -- mail lpf@xxxxxxxxxxxx Project lead for The Gimp Print -- http://gimp-print.sourceforge.net "Linux doesn't dictate how I work, I dictate how Linux works." --Eric Crampton
