What do you folks think of this workflow--viable?
Client has Epson 5000, which is supposed to be able to simulate
Dupont Waterproof output. So instead of fighting the blasted Fiery
RIP to get it to use an input profile (a previous long topic of
discussion here), and instead of setting up another RIP or a color
server, what about profiling the 5000 and having the designers work
in that color space? My design studio clients don't have consistent
print vendors that can provide profiles anyway, so we're only working
in the ball park. Is this a reasonable workflow? I guess I could do a
profile and compare it to a Waterproof profile I have or to Adobe's
SWOPv2 in ColorThink. Are there other pitfalls I'm not thinking of
here?
