Re: switching from b/o baqck to colr clayton

Hello Jerry,

Glad to hear you got it going.

>what settings have to be changed back in order to do so other than 
>the black only box?  Do I have to change both front end and back end?

I'm not a color expert and hardly ever do it, but here's the little
bit I've noticed.  The color image will be in RGB mode, so it's front
end will be different (whatever is the apps default color setting). 
The back end will still be Same As Source.  All that needs to be done
is to uncheck "Black Ink Only".  All these settings can be saved to
make it easier to switch from one to another.

Beyond that, color management is a vast subject of which I know
little.  For a good book I recommend "Real World Photoshop".

Regards,
Clayton
