signlab 8 - how do I bring a file in using the colour specs from illy?

I have noticed that my SignLab when importing files, seems to switch everything to rgb and you don't really know the true colour the designer requested.

Is there a setting to bring files in as they were saved? cmyk?

i cant seem to find anything

are you importing as eps, ai or pdf? I think if you do pdf it should reatin the cmyk colors. Are they your ai files or some one elses. I would open in Illy and try saving as pdf if that doesnt do it try eps
PM if you want me to see what happens in 9 (or 8 for that matter)
Good lluck :)

When you import file on the custom color assignment tab say yes to cut paths and then on next tab click assign colors

I dont think I have ever seen this option but will be on the lookout. Nope, just tried importing an eps file and outside of the 3 choices on how i want to import the file , thats it... I may have turned that option off as I know the box you might be describing. Is there a way to reactivate it?
