Maintaining true black in strokes

[Woody02905]

I'm losing my true black cmyk readings when I place strokes into Photoshop. 

Is there a way to maintain true black when importing strokes into Photoshop?

What is your definition of "true black"?

What colour settings (modes) do you use in Illustrator and in Photoshop?

Please describe in detail.

Are you color managing between the programs so that the colors appear the same as well as what @Kurt Gold is asking?
