seperations the colour changes drastically and looking nothing like the RGB
colour specified, does anyone know how to resove this problem.

Many, if not most, colors will not look the same in CMYK as they do in RGB.

Blues, for instance.

Apart from bering skilled in image editing there's not a lot you can do
about it.

I am having the same problem, but my problem does not show
up badly until I convert the pdf to cmyk. It seems like
2002 worked but not this latest version. I had a client
who needed a pantone purple. When I converted it to pdf
and then converted that to cmyk the colors were way off. I
had to pull out my pantone book with the cmyk values and
remap them from enfocus. The pictures are all converting
badly. The files I get come in as rgb and the pics are
embedded. It seems I get the same result if I leave the
pub file as cmyk or rgb before I print to pdf.
I have tried printing out the file to seps, but what a
pain to work with. I paid 300+ for seps to comp and it
works on all files but publisher.

I have had better luck with power point and word in this
area.
