Hello Mark; This is a common complaint! What Blurb don’t initially tell us clearly up front is that there is a great deal of colour conversion work goes on between our sRGB JPEG images and the finished article which is produced on a commercial CMYK printer… CMYK printers have a substantially narrower colour band than sRGB and really struggle where the original image contains specifically blues and darker tones in the first place… A great many of us have learnt this lesson the hard way! If you run a forum search for "ICC profile" you will see many discussion topics about "soft-proofing" your work for Blurb’s printers… However, my own feeling is that if Blurb are to successfully attract multitudes of "ordinary" users, then the colour conversion algorithms they employ need to be honed MUCH better than they are today… As far as I can see, the majority of users have no idea at all or no concept of colour-management, and more importantly, don’t want it either! Anyhow, I suggest that if you feel you have justifiable cause for complaint, you file a Tech Support report… You can access the submission form via the HELP page at the head of this page… Good luck; Cheers; Lee
