I thought the issue may be OS specific, but I get similar behavior on a Mac.
I have discovered the Cyan tool: http://cyan.fxarena.net/
and will try it out.
As various people have pointed out, RGB -> CMYK conversion is never going
to be perfect. It just so happens that my book contains many plots that use
red and cyan, and a good conversion to cyan is most of what I am after.

There are 600+ figures. There are png versions here:
