Hello,
I want to scan over 500.000 color and B/w images from the 19th and
20th century; I represent a leading photo archive. My color expert
suggested to save them in sRGB format since I currently do most of my
business over the web and with many pre press and graphic people.
Whoever I know that sRGB clip off some color gamut; probably it will
be wise to same my 2000x3000 pixel files as CIELAB, or Adobe RGB and
than batch processing the tumbnails and medium resolution as
sRGB..... What do you think???
Also, for this consideration, which color space do you believe in
considered most appropriate for quality and max amount of color info?
Adobe RGB, Apple RGB, etc, etc.....
Thanks; Andrea
