Controlling the ink limits is one of the tricks that CMYK RIPs offer, but only if you can control the raw ink output used for profiling targets, or they are even more of a mess than what you describe. I'm currently dealing with this issue in differnt ways with different programs, and some developer solutions will be forthcoming. The worst combination at present is PressReady (due to its excellent open screens which place lots of ink, and its very advanced ICC based ink limiting technology, which does not limit the ink at all without a profile) in combination with Fotonic inks, with their low bleed point. Once PressReady is available for the 1200, and the Fotonics are available for the 1200 (both due soon) then the nightmare combo will be PR and Fotonics on a 1200 <G>... but the results once its tamed should be phenomenal!
