With PhotoShop 6.0 now, is it better to do rgb-cmyk conversion in PS or on
the rip. In my case Best Color. If I do the rgb-cmyk conversion in PS, here
is what I do.
First open raw untagged rgb scan in PS, then I do a assign profile which I
select my scanner/dcam profile.
Second I do a "Convert To Profile" Destination Space I choose my cmyk
printer profile I made with Print Open 4.0 / DTP41
Under conversion options this is where a have a two questions
For "Engine" should I use the Heidelberg engine since my printer profile
came from Print Open? or should I just use the Adobe (ACE)
Should I leave Black Point Comp. check or unchecked ?
OR.
is it still better to send raw rgb scan to best color and do it all there?
