Many thanks,
yes RGB is much better, but I "must" use CMYK for the printer.
All my almost 100 files are well over 40 Mb, so I did a very very small test which I can attach.
Origin : a srgb file. Conversion to Isocoated v2 ECI with Krita and Cyan.
Difference between jpg and tiff is about 93% (lower than in all my tests, but not much)
Well, no, I now see that even with a very small file, the output is almost 3 Mb, so unable to attach, sorry.
Anyway, Krita and Cyan give exactly the same output. Surely they both use same conversion tool.
I need an acceptable CMYK conversion tool, without buying Photoshop, which I don't need at all.
I am using Nx Studio on raw exporting a tiff, then Gimp for assembling 3 photos and completing a book cover.
I don't know if other options are available. And if they are at least acceptable, too.
Advice welcome
