Monotype Prepress RIPit Computer Corporation Color: Determines how document color is sent to the printer, using the following options: • Composite Leave Unchanged. Sends output but doesn't convert color to the color space of the output device. Useful if you want all color conversion to be done by the device or if you want to send CMYK and RGB data to the output device. • Composite Gray. Sends grayscale output. Any colors are converted to their gray equivalents. Useful for sending output to a non-color printer. • Composite RGB. Sends full-color composite RGB output. Useful for sending output to RGB-based output devices such as inkjet printers or film recorders. • Composite CMYK. Sends full-color composite CMYK output. Useful for sending output to proofing devices or other composite CMYK workflows. Note that this color output mode converts spot colors to process colors in a composite environment, but preserves spot colors if the PostScript output from this mode is processed in a separations environment. RGB-to-CMYK conversion is determined by the color management settings, if enabled. If color management is off, conversion is performed using the Apple RGB profile

Output panel
This panel provides control over color separation. Most of its options are available only when
a PostScript printer is targeted. If a non-PostScript printer is targeted, the Color menu, Text
as Black option, and Simulate Overprint option are available, but others are not.
Color:
Determines how document color is sent to the printer, using the following options:
Composite Leave Unchanged
. Sends output but doesn’t convert color to the color space
of the output device. Useful if you want all color conversion to be done by the device or if
you want to send CMYK and RGB data to the output device.
Composite Gray
. Sends grayscale output. Any colors are converted to their gray equiva-
lents. Useful for sending output to a non-color printer.
Composite RGB
. Sends full-color composite RGB output. Useful for sending output to
RGB-based output devices such as inkjet printers or film recorders.
Composite CMYK
. Sends full-color composite CMYK output. Useful for sending output
to proofing devices or other composite CMYK workflows. Note that this color output
mode converts spot colors to process colors in a composite environment, but preserves
spot colors if the PostScript output from this mode is processed in a separations environ-
ment. RGB-to-CMYK conversion is determined by the color management settings, if
enabled. If color management is off, conversion is performed using the Apple RGB profile
