Objects stuck in RGB colour space in a CMYK document
I'm working on a print document in CMYK and reusing some elements from a file created in RGB. When I go to change the colour of the text for example in the new CMYK doc it refuses to let me change the object to CMYK.
For instance, I want the text to be 85% K but whenever I input these swatch values it automatically switches back to RBG (R77 G77 B79).
This has been happening in Illustrator on my desktop for months, it's something I run into almost daily even after updating the software.

I downloaded your CMYK document, and the text is 85% black, I don't see any problem with it.
