I asked the following in the 1pt smiter guide over in the pala forums....
Ok, so I realised one of my mf sorcs must've found this jewel: 40%dmg, 4max. I thought of putting it in my gulli face, but I seem to remember reading something about a bug with off hand ED or max dmg? Can someone give me an idea about which bug I may (or may not!) be thinking about & whether its a good idea to put this in my gulli or whether I should put an um in instead, & sell the jewel for some currency? Thanks!
But I have turned up some confusion it seems.... Ragnarod said:

Don't, you're right about the bug... In jewels with both ED and max/min damage the ED is applied to the max/min damage added by the jewel only, and not to your total damage, if they're socketed in something other than weapons. That's why socketing a plain 40% ED jewel in your helm would add much more damage than that 40% ED 4 max jewel

I don't think that's how it works. I was under the distinct impression that the 40%ed would apply to everything except the min/max damage on the same off-weapon item.

Now I'm not sure, I've done a search and I've found both explanations for the ED/max and ED/min jewel bug. From the Strategy Compendium:
If a jewel adds both ed% and min dmg, the ed% will only affect the max dmg.
If a jewel has both ed% and max dmg, the ed% only affects the min dmg.
Yet here there's another poster saying basically the same you're saying, so...
After some more search there's another explanation that combines parts of both: in an ED/max jewel the ED works fine for the min damage of the character, but only modifies the jewel's +max damage which is added to the max damage of the character.
I guess someone should test this more thoroughly, I'm not really sure about which one is correct right now
