Hi Roman,

thanks for the URL.
On MAC OS X 10.6 the image opens perfectly in Safari browser (version 4.0.3) as well as in Firefox (3.5.5).
On Windows XP the image does not open in MS Internet Explorer (version 7.0.5) but in works in Firefox (3.5.5).
Again it's the Internet Explorer who is spoiling the party ;-)

Anyhow, CMYK is not intended for screens as long as these images are intended to get downloaded for printing purposes. Then you still you the possibility to zip these images on the fly with a servlet.

All the best,

Florian
