Now we are comparing proprietary workflows to open ICC ones... it may well be
faster, more convenient, and easier, to use a proprietary workflow
(especially for production work), but it is generally also more expensive up
front, and ties you into proprietary hardware, as well as leaving you
dependant on one company's decisions. Lino is the ulitmate example of this,
but Creo attempts to follow suit...
Photoshop 5 and Photoshop 6, ColorBlind Edit, InDesign 1 and InDesign
1.5, QuarkXPress 4 and QuarkXPress 4.1, BatchMatcherPS 1 and 1.3,
iQueue 1 ... all support CIELab D50 2 degree standard observer. How
on earth can scanning into CIELab or CMYK and handing off CIELab,
tagged RGB or tagged CMYK be proprietary?
You can argue against CIELab on workflow grounds, just as you can
argue against tagged RGB on workflow grounds. Most of us use a mix
all day long. But tagging either as proprietary kind of calls for an
extension or plug-in to the dictionary definition of 'proprietary'
