Mark, if you follow the thread, you will find that I hit a known problem 
and it was remedied in a newer version of LC8. The comment/tip from 
Keith is quite useful since the files I produce are printed by different 
print shops in different countries. The shop I use locally accepts files 
with sRGB but warns that color might be slightly off due to conversion 
to CMYK.
