This workflow involves short-run printing of a complex page layout with images saved 
in Photoshop, illustrations created in Illustrator, and PANTONE spot colors. A 
Photoshop image is saved in an RGB color space using the EPS file format. Illustrator 
artwork contains objects defined as CMYK and as PANTONE spot colors selected 
from printed output, and they are saved using the Illustrator EPS file format. After all 
of these individual objects are imported into QuarkXPress, additional design elements 
in QuarkXPress are colored using CMYK process colors or PANTONE spot colors. 
Use the settings illustrated in this workflow for printing brochures, newsletters, and 
other layouts.

Anytime CMYK colors are placed in a document, they should be selected from 

This document could be created as follows:

• Create an RGB image in Photoshop and save it as an EPS. 

• Create a graphic in Illustrator using CMYK and PANTONE colors and save as 

Illustrator EPS. 

• Use CMYK colors and a PANTONE color in a QuarkXPress document. 

• Import the Illustrator EPS into QuarkXPress and place the Photoshop EPS image. 

• Print the QuarkXPress document to the Fiery X4. 

• Use ColorWise to convert the RGB image to copier CMYK, to adjust the process 

colors for short-run printing, and to match the PANTONE spot colors using the 
full copier gamut. 

The ColorWise settings used in this example are:

• RGB Source Profile set to EFIRGB or another RGB source definition

• Rendering Style set to Photographic

• RGB Separation set to Output

• CMYK Simulation None

• Spot Color Matching set to On

This workflow involves short-run printing of a complex presentation document with 
images saved in Photoshop, illustrations created in Illustrator, and PANTONE spot 
colors. All elements are imported into PowerPoint for output.

This document could be created as follows:

• Create an RGB image in Photoshop and save it as Photoshop EPS. 

• Create a graphic in Illustrator using CMYK colors and a PANTONE spot color and 

save as Illustrator EPS. 

• Create a presentation in PowerPoint using RGB colors. 

• Import the Illustrator EPS graphic into the PowerPoint presentation and place the 

Photoshop EPS image. 

• Print the PowerPoint document to the Fiery X4. 

• Use ColorWise to convert the PowerPoint RGB colors and Photoshop RGB image 

to copier CMYK, to adjust the process colors for more saturated short-run printing, 
and to match the PANTONE spot colors using the full copier gamut.

The ColorWise settings used in this example are:

• RGB Source Profile set to EFIRGB or another RGB source definition

• Rendering Style set to Presentation

• RGB Separation set to Output

• CMYK Simulation NONE

• Spot Color Matching set to On
