Optional Color Management from QuarkXPress
If you have additional color management requirements not offered by ColorWise, such as 
managing color on devices not controlled by the Color Server, consider using the 
QuarkXPress color management features. For more information, see your QuarkXPress 
documentation.
For QuarkXPress 4.02, consider using Quark CMS XTension. These features allow advanced 
users to control RGB to CMYK color conversions. If you plan to use these features, make sure 
that Quark CMS XTension is installed before starting QuarkXPress. If it is not installed, use 
the Quark XTensions Manager to install it. For instructions, see your QuarkXPress 
documentation.

Quark CMS converts RGB TIFF, JPEG, and PICT images to CMYK before sending 
color data to the Color Server. RGB Source and Rendering Style settings have no effect on 
this data unless you use Quark PrintRGB XTension, which outputs RGB TIFF image files 
without converting them to CMYK.
QuarkXPress 3.32 for Mac OS and Windows 
Before starting QuarkXPress 3.32, make sure the EfiColor XTension is not loaded in the 
XTensions folder. EFICOLOR profiles are not currently provided with Color Server 
products. Without the correct EFICOLOR profile, the EfiColor XTension cannot perform 
color conversions on placed images.
Windows version requirement
For the Windows version of QuarkXPress, make sure a copy of the Color Server PPD file is in 
the \XPRESS\PDF folder. 
Importing images
All RGB images placed in a document are affected by your RGB Source and Rendering Style 
settings. For best results with placed images, follow the instructions in 
“Working with 
imported images”
 on page 29.

You can print directly from an illustration application or use it to create and save files that will 
be imported into a page layout document. To print from an illustration application, use the 
printer driver and print settings recommended in 
Color Printing
. As a general rule, use the
 
EPS
 file format when saving files with an illustration application. When an EPS file is 
imported into another application, the color information in the imported image is not 
changed by the application into which it is imported.
Before printing from illustration applications, make sure that the appropriate PostScript 
printer driver and the Color Server 
PPD
 are installed on your computer, as described in 
Printing from Windows
 or 
Printing from Mac OS
. This chapter provides instructions for using 
Adobe Illustrator, Macromedia FreeHand, and CorelDRAW for Windows and Mac OS.

Adobe Illustrator for Windows and Mac OS 
The following sections provide guidelines for working with Adobe Illustrator versions 10.x 
and 9.x.
Note about color models in Adobe Illustrator
In Illustrator, you can set the Document Color Mode to either RGB Color or CMYK color. 
All elements in that file are created in that color model. When you print the file, the data is 
sent to the Color Server in the color model that you specified.
Illustrator color settings
Illustrator uses a sophisticated color management system that can handle both RGB and 
CMYK colors for a variety of color-managed workflows. By customizing color settings, you 
specify the amount of color management you want to use while working in Illustrator. These 
color settings include the following:
Working spaces
:
 
Default
 color spaces
 to use when working with RGB and CMYK 
documents.
 ICC color profiles
 describe the gamut and color characteristics of these working 
spaces.
Color management policies
: Instructions that tell Illustrator what to do when it encounters 
color data from a color space other than the specified working space.
