RGB to CMYK?

Hi,



I have 30 images in a document in ID CS3? The images are all RGB, is there a quick way of converting these images to CMYK color?



Thanks,



Barb
RGB to CMYK?
No need to...if they're properly tagged they'll be converted on export

to PDF.

How are they properly tagged?

Embedded profiles.



If you don't embed the profiles, ID will assume the working space (as would Photoshop) unless you specifically assign something else.

how do you embed image profiles? By embedding the images?

Profiles are embedded at the time images are saved, if you choose to do so (and I think you should), and the saving application allows it. The link information or the info panel should tell you the embedded profile, it it's there.



If there is no embedded profile already you can open the image in Photoshop and ASSIGN (not convert to) a profile -- and it will be pure guesswork and subtle differences if you don't know already what it should be, so turn on preview in the dialog and try a few until you get something that seems right -- and do a save as and embed the profile you chose.



Peter

Thanks for your assistance!
