I always have cases when my graphs from IDL for publications produce,
let's say, not quite desired colors when printed. I can't blame it on
IDL as they look fine on the screen, its the RGB to CMYK conversion.
Color typesetting was much better with that then our costly color laser
jet. However, even for grayscale graphs, I switched to always editing
IDL ps files in a more suited for that graphics package, like Adobe
Illustrator or Corel Draw. They at least have the ability to show on the
screen how is it going to look like on the paper, and then you can tweak
the colors, shades of gray, etc.
Good luck,
Pavel
