The problem I see with Photoshop-based profile editing, is that you are
bound by your existing solids.
In other words, there is no way that editing a CMYK output profile in
Photoshop, and editing it in CMYK as all (is there an exception?)
Photoshop-based editors do, can change the color of 100%C to be more
saturated or brighter than it currently is in the profile.
Your solids and your solid overprints will always stay the same (except if
you introduce contamination by selective color edit), you only change the
colors in between. You can't change paper white either to a brighter or less
saturated point.
My favorites: ColorBlind Edit (but tough!) and ColorQuartet. Yes,
ColorQuartet is a scanning app, but does a great job of profile editing.
Unfortunately, only on the output side of the profile.
I believe LinoColor is also a very capable profile editor? Can it save edits
to both sides and all rendering intents?
