So what's up with that? (Or, is this old news?)
It's old news -:).
Newcolor 7000 saves out 16 bit Lab TIFF or 8 bit Lab TIFF,
optionally. 16 bit RGB TIFF or 8 bit RGB TIFF, optionally. And if
anybody wants it, then equally 16 bit or 8 bit CMYK. There is now
also enhanced support for EPS with RGB and Lab, if you are using a
color server of some kind. All exports are tagged with the ICC
profile.
The ColorSync filters read 16 bit Lab TIFF as they should.
At the moment we're waiting for Pshop 6 which was widely hoped to
support 16 bit Lab in the open format, rather than only it's interal
psd format.
(Sort of the left hand holding back the TIFF spec and the right hand
moving the psd format forward, sans co-ordination -:).)
