This is all getting way too complicated.

The CMYK palette that Minimiro created was before Xara had a PDF export. Design as you want and export a PDF file. Printers want either a PDF file or a CMYK TIFF which Photo and Graphics Designer can export but which I do not feel real comfortable with.

Try the PDF file Monica. See if your printer can work with that.

If you find you need the next step up which is PDF/X and which is better suited to professional printing, then consider upgrading to Designer Pro 7.

Also, a lot of printers can accept an RGB file and prefer to do the CMYK conversion using their own specifications.
