Greg, correct. It adds patches to the target, which are arranged in a regularly spaced "color cube" (in device space) consisting of m^3 (RGB) or m^4 (CMYK) data points. > But the default value of 2 is far too low for it to mean this! Right, -m2" covers only the extremes. But I wouldn't imply that it is far too low, since the full-spread patches (-f) cover the whole gamut much better and much more uniform anyway, than a regularly spaced grid in device space would do.
