Hi there,

how would you convert ps-pages (only with CMYK-colors) into a RGB-bitmap. If
i convert them with ghostscript the colors seems to be converted 1:1. But i
need a way to convert them to make them appear on the screen some like on
the paper. For example a CMYK-color - C100% M0% Y100% K0% appear after
converting as R0% G100% B0%. And this is color a CMYK-printer never prints.
Any ideas?

Thanks a lot!
Peter
