raises a point - hope yuo don't mind.
a long while back I made some duotones [Quad tones actually], in PS 5
- using the working methoad as an interesdting way to tint and split
tone some mono images of Pismo beach. Perhaps it's not the best or most
elegant way but I liked the result.
I switched mode to RGB then P>P to Epson profile to print and all was
predictable.
I reopened the CD recently and looked at the original duotones with a
view to a little reworking. Imagine my surprise when the colour looked
absolutely awful, after many hours of pleasure I discovered that the
CMYK setup chosen has a large influence on a duotone image. Not just
tonal either. Photoshop 6 could not provide me with a setting which
worked on the files.
In the end I had to switch to 5 with the default Colorsync CMYK [I
think] selected to get the appearance back to that intended.
Now, if the CMYK space has such an immense effect on a saved Duotone
image would it not be useful to embed that profile in the saved file??
Or to provide some kind of record to assist reopening? Am I missing
something here?
thanks
