CMYK images are displaying differently for me between PS and AI. In PS when they look "good" (and print similarly on my profiled Epson), in AI they look more contrasty and saturated, with a little color shift in the greens (towards blue).
My monitor is calibrated with a Monaco Optix, and I notice the difference between apps both on it and on my MacBook Pro screen.
Image profile is the standard SWOP v2. In AI, the document profile is SWOP v2. "Proof Colors" is unchecked in both apps. (If I check it, by default AI is radically different because it defaults to simulating black ink. Disabling this causes Proof Colors to have no visual effect.)
I asked this already in the AI forum, and the answer I got is basically "they should match, they do for me". I noticed elsewhere on this forum that AI and PS were different in color management, or rendering, or something, but didn’t see much info beyond that.
I figured there were enough color hounds on this forum to set me straight.
