Colors from Photoshop to Quark to Distiller

[Leanne_Krause@adobeforums.com]

I have some artwork in Photoshop, imported into Quark on a background with the exact same CMYK (and Colormatch profiles). They look slightly different in Quark although print okay on my Epson from Quark.
When I try to make a pdf, it comes out with those color differences again. Does anybody know what I can do to get a match?

Sorry, Quark is in its own color world. You could do color matching between Adobe apps by using the same color settings. But when you're in XPress territory, all bets are off!

Thanks Steve. Would I be better off by just switching to InDesign?

Personally, I think so. In the InDesign Mac forum, there is a thread which provides some good reasons:
