I've been struggling with this for a month or two. PressReady is suddenly useless. I usually make PDFs for client presentation out of Quark 4.11. Color management is turned on, with US Sheetfeed Coated 2 profile selected in CMYK color preferences. Display correction is on and separation selected. This is the profile used for CMYK export in Photoshop as well. I would use this profile in Create Adobe PDF in the printer dialogue in when making PDFs from Quark with PressReady. With this setup, I had good results for about a year and half.

Suddenly all the PressReady PDFs are WAY off in color. I have not changed anything that I could think of that would effect this. I have discarded all prefs and reinstalled PressReady twice without helping. I'm having the same color problems in all my applications whenever I use PressReady. Can anyone help? I'm reduced to making EPSs in Quark and rasterizing them in Photoshop to make Photoshop PDFs, very unsatisfactory, but the only way I can get a color match.

I'm on OS 9.1, using AdobePS 8.8. The Adobe print color prefs are also set to US Sheetfeed Coated 2.
