That means that the saved image should use the CMYK color space, not that you have to specify CMYK colors as you create the image. From the Save Image Help/Tips page:

Color space. Some publications require images to be in the CMYK color space. Chimera currently saves images in only the RGB color space, so a separate application such as Adobe Photoshop® must be used to switch between the two.

Hi,

Some journals require usage of CMYK color scheme. I see that the CMYK option exists in the color editor but is it possible to define CMYK for all the color actions (actions --> color) without having to go through the color editor for each color? Or am I missing something altogether?
Thanks for you advice,

Boaz
