I have been trying to make and use custom ICC profiles in Colorblind Pro
With Bestcolor DE. ver:1.1 proofing on a Canon 8500
I follow a fairly standard procedure as follows.
1. I select Inkjet Matte in the device selection window in the printer
profile window.
2. In customize I change the name only.
3. I select linearize.
4. I select print and print the target on the Canon.
5. Once the Lin target has printed out through Bestcolor DE (with no
profiles selected) I measure it as normal using our Gretag spectroscan.
6. As I have yet to create a profile I select no when asked to update an
existing profile.
7. And then I print the new target with the linearization add to it.
8. Once the profile target (1441 steps of colour) has printed out through
Bestcolor DE ( again with no profiles selected) I measure it as normal
using
our Gretag spectroscan.
9. Once the measurements are complete I create and name the profile as
normal.
Until now sound's god.
Bestcolor DE (Mac)
1. In configuration setting I select a Bestcolor reference profile and
then
load my new CB profile in the paper profile window.
1 -Did you some adjusts in ColorBlind EDIT?
2 - You set the input and output profile/ rendering intent In EDIT ?
3 -You create a new reference IT8 (with > 800 paths) with YOUR printing
conditions?
2. Then I print a test file which comes out heavily saturated across the
entire
tonal range.
N.B. it is only colorblind profiles that seem to cause the trouble or
maybe
I'm going wrong somewhere else..
I know this feeling, but CB Pro It's a great tool and can make a very good
profiles.
This a shame, but, you really need use EDIT to make fine profiles .
There are a new help file for EDIT (in PDF) very, very usefull:
in this address..

Well, you don't talk about what specific problems do you have.
I hope this help you
