Hi!
We discovered that some PMS colors, when converting them to CMYK obtain diff. values in Q4 and Q5. For instance, PMS 3435 in Q4 has 60%black and in Q5 has 66%black. This is a big difference. Who knows, why it is happaned?
Thanks
 
I found a little note about this in the Readme.PDF file in the QuarkXPress documentation folder: "Pantone has changed some of their color definitions; as a result, the CMYK components or the on-screen display of certain Pantone colors may be different in QuarkXPress 5.0 than they were in QuarkXPress 4.x."
