interesting...I just sent a 24x30" poster to print

In Photoshop, I had one full-bleed pixel layer and three basic type layers that I converted to Shape layers.

Next I Converted to Sheetfed Coated CMYK then Saved as Photoshop .eps file (preserve vector data checked).

Next I placed the file in an InDesign layout with no other files and handed off the file to the printer.

At this point I want them to just print my file (like Quark used to do) -- but after reading this thread it sounds like once they open my file in InDesign to write the PDF -- I am not so sure that's going to happen now.

I instructed them to turn off all PDF compression options -- at that point WHAT IS HAPPENING TO MY CMYK NUMBERS -- are the CMKY numbers going straight through or is the PDF doing some kind of color conversion.

How do I get this Ps>Id> PDF to just run my Ps .eps files through with no compression or color changes?
