Set all images to CMYK except images that are only Black & White which should be saved in Grayscale Mode.

Monitor colors and digital or laser printers will not produce press accurate color. The best way to check color is to use Color Guide Books sold by Pantone http://pantone.com . With their color guides you can match the color builds to the color builds in your files.

There is a color shift when you convert spot colors to process. The color shift can range from slight to dramatic. Reflex Blue does not convert to process well at all. Pantone also sells a spot to process conversion guide which is useful when converting spot colors to process.

Do not use Quark’s default blue when converted it will print purple.
