Colors in TIFF files change when they are pulled into FrameMaker?

[Shelly, Heather]

Thank you, Scott, for your help with this inquiry. In our case, the blue
color displayed in a garish hue in the Frame source, and when it was
distilled into a PDF. The original TIFF files were a high-resolution. I
ended up recapturing the TIFF images in PaintShop Pro and creating new
TIFFs from the captured images.
Frame is recognizing the correct blue color in the new TIFF images just
fine.
Thanks!

I have seen that many times here. We embed (copy) all of our images  
into our files.
When viewing an image with the color you describe, Makita Products  
are a prime example for us, we get a screaming bright bluish green  
teal color.
However, I have not had any problems when I distill my files. We  
leave the color settings to none in the color set up of the distiller.
Our images are mostly hi-res tif or eps.
