The school where I'm teaching part time has a number of G4's running
OS9 and Photoshop 5.0. They need to content themselves with the
monitor calibration tool available from either Adobe (Adobe Gamma) or
Apple (Colorsync calibration utility). They both look very similar and
appear to do the same thing.
Is there one that is better than the other?
Should the unused one be disabled (in extensions manager) to prevent
conflicts/problems?
I've already had a problem with creating a profile with one after doing a
profile with the other and then getting some very strange results in
Photoshop. After setting the pallet to default Foreground=black /
Background=white the white was seriously yellow. I'll have a closer look at
Andrew Rodney's "Colorsync 3.0 and Photoshop 5.x and 6.0" pdf but I
don't see an opinion on the above.
Thanks for any help you might have.
