I am having issues with color changes when I am saving a photo in Photoshop 7 (after converting it from RGB to CMYK) and then placing it in Pagemaker. And sometimes when just convert in Photoshop and print directly from Photoshop it changes the colors. Let me give you an example: I recently opened an RGB graphic in Photoshop. Anything I convert from RGB to CMYK changes the photo from full color (RGB) to duotone image looking (or black and white image with a purple screen) when it becomes CMYK. It is losing the entire color contents)

I don’t know what to do. I use a view sonic VA720 flat screen monitor and it’s pc (and windows xp).

Thanks in advance. Diane
