    Hey guys! Question...

    I set up a document as a 2 color job. (Pantone 570 Coated) but now need to convert it to CMYK. I've always been one to go by the book but this time, for some reason my Process values version is noticeably darker.

    But, what makes things worse is that I have an old Solid to Process book and the values for 570C are different than my new book, but same as what InDesign is giving me.

    New Book 570C = 57 0 36 0
    Old Book = 48 0 29 0
    InDesign = 48 0 29 0

    Should I let InDesign handle it? Should I go by the book? Which one? Any suggestions or conversions you can suggest? Thanks!
