I've run into a problem in using PS 5.5 and PS 6 together. If I create

get a profile mismatch notice in PS 5.5.
Anyone know why?
Perhaps the naming of the profiles is a little different between the
applications? I could be wrong but I think Photoshop goes by the
internal ASCII name of the profile.
The problem is this: I create an image in PS 6 in the ColorMatch RGB
space then open it in PS 5.5 (with ColorMatch RGB set as my working
space) and I get a profile mismatch warning.
In both cases I am using the ColorMatch space from PhotoShop, it's just
between PS 6 and PS 5.5 that's the only difference that I can see.
The implementation of ColorMatch RGB in 5.x was slightly off -- not
by any stretch of the imagination enough to be a serious problem, but
not quite the Radius spec. The discrepancy was fixed in 6.0, but the
ColorMatch RGB in 6 and the ColorMatch RGB in 5.5 are two different
profiles.
I worked around this by saving out the 5.x ColorMatch profile as
ColorMatch 5.5 RGB...
