Hi guys,
is there any difference when printing if my images are in CMYK in different colour modes? I will be printing in Spain and i would like to know if there is one more suitable than other. For example, US Web Coated or Japan Color 2001.

Any idea?

Cheers,
Sebastian

Sebastian,

There are huge differences. You need to talk to your printer and find out what THEIR specs are for how they print. Most printers in Europe try to print to Euroscale standards, but not all, so you really need to know. In addition, there will be different inking requirements as depending on the paper, press, etc. But the first order of business is to communicate with your printer.

Don’s use the American or Japanese profiles for for Europe. It is not unusual to be unable to get profile information from the printer. Absent any additional information, Use ISOcoatedsb.icc.
