Adobe Acrobat 6.0.1:
I have tried to create a form field in a PDF document and to change the text color in the form field (Text Field Properties/Appearance) into CMYK. But it seems to convert back into RGB or web-optimized colors. This is a very big problem if you intent to print the PDF in CMYK (offset). This CMYK/RGB/CMYK converting leaves you with no control of text colors!?

When you click the small Text Color window, a very primitive, pre-defined RGB-color palette appears.
If you choose "Other color" you will now end up with a variety of possibilities of color settings.
Try to move the CMYK sliders (in slide mode) or to type the value ex. C70 M45 Y0 K50. A small triangle-shaped mark in the colorwindow appears (this indicates that RGB rules(!!!) and you have chosen a color out of RGB/web safe range.
If you click OK, you will probably notice that the small Text Color window changes into a color not very similar the one you have defined (but surely a RGB color?!?)!

What have I done wrong???

I have tried to change my Preferences/Color Management but with no luck. I have even un-clicked "Save As optimizes for Fast Web Wiew" in Preferences/Generel (if this should have any influence?)!

But where does I define that I intend to use CMYK preferences all the way?
