Just when I think I understand what to do I get lost again...PhotoShop
profile-to-profile makes sense (then turn off color management in the RIP),
but what about other apps that do not do p-t-p?
First scenario:
Have custom profile for printer (ink/media/pattern/resolution combo)
Design in Illustrator, Print from Illustrator.
Q1a) Where do you select the custom output profile?
Q1b) If you are using a PostScript printer driver, what is the difference
between ColorSync Color Management and PostScript Color Management?
Second scenario:
Q2a) What would you do if you wanted to "Simulate" another color device on
the printer above? How do you tie the Simulate ICC profile to the real
printer profile?
Thanx All...
