This is in no way accurate, but what I did was take a 10x10 sample of the best photo I could find. Of course, the numbers vary depending on the sample area, lighting, etc... Again, not accurate.

CMYK 90 66 1 0

Thanks.

I'm playing with photshop for a CP.  From memory I managed 94, 67, 0, 0 so I wasn't too far off  :applaud:

I'll run with that unless someone comes back with an exact figure.

Thanks Again
Stace  :)

It actually stands for "key", but most folks call it black.

cyan, magenta, yellow, black

LOL, I always figured that they picked k because b was already taken.

We've just ramped up the conversation here.  Good to see that we have some real imaging smarts on the forum.
