      Description

      Currently when writing color values to a PDF file the colors are converted to be RGB values and thus they lose the precision they may have had when specified as CMYK values. Since PDF has support for CMYK values and for printing purposes it is also indicated that CMYK is the better choice for indicating colors then this should be preserved and not converted to RGB.
