C.,

I don't know how helpful this is going to be because I've never really made a lot of PDFs using PressReady's "Create PDF." (I've always used Acrobat Distiller). However, as I recall, that function in PressReady was nothing more than a "basic" version of whatever Distiller was out at the time (v.4?). If so, my following comments might make some sense to you.

By "PDFs for client presentation," do you mean PDFs that are intended to be viewed on a monitor?

If so, in addition to making sure you have the proper CMYK output profile selected at the points you mentioned, you must have the proper color management settings under PDF job options. Specifically, PDFs destined for screen viewing should be made with color management policies set to "convert all colors to sRGB."

If you're already using that setting, then I don't know what might be causing your problem.
