The CMYK Simulation setting affects all CMYK color data sent by the illustration application. • If the document contains CMYK images that were separated for an offset press standard, apply the corresponding CMYK Simulation setting. For example, for images separated for SWOP, choose SWOP-Coated as the CMYK Simulation setting. • If the document contains CMYK images that were separated according to the color characteristics of a custom ICC profile (not a press standard profile), select the corresponding profile from the CMYK Simulation Profile print option on the Color Server.
