The Fiery, while very ICC-compliant, takes a bit of massaging to get it to
work in different sorts of workflows, namely the one where we can get paid
lots of money as consultants.
By itself, ColorWise is an effective little self-contained color management
system. It has separate paths for CMYK, RGB, Spot Color (Pantone coated),
and Black input data. And these can all be contorted through Color Setup to
pass everything though the CMYK channel, for a very good proofing system as
long as the CMYK Simulation profile is relevant to the output system, and
the inkjet/color copier is properly calibrated using ColorWise Pro Tools.
Modifying the Output Profile is considered to be the action when actually
profiling the copier/inkjet. I've done this in the past with both
ProfileMaker Pro 4 and Monaco EZColor. Between the two (simple calibration
in CWP Tools and building a custom profile), I've not noticed a heckuvalotta
difference when the output profile is correct. Given that, I typically just
calibrate. It's faster.
And Pete, are you getting behavior in CWP Tools where you launch, but you
don't get a UI, just a Help menu next to the Apple menu? Try trashing the
preferences file, deleting the app, and reinstalling. This fixed the problem
on a Mac where this occured.
