Did a test print of a brochure today and the blues came out purple
I designed this thing in RGB like a dummy and didn't convert to CMYK before sending it to the printer. Anyone else ever have a color shift that bad and have to redo the whole file from scratch?

Yeah I did that once with a wedding invite (the pink came out brown, oops).

That "pink came out brown" thing hit close to home. I tried to print a custom t-shirt for my nephew's birthday once. It was supposed to be this bright turquoise. Came out looking like swamp water. Kid wore it anyway, said it was "ugly cool" or something. Guess that's a win?
