Sometimes I wonder if printers and how many are willing to let us help them
get it right quicker and easier.
I know that if you go to the ink makers sites they have most generic
profiles for their inks. I had downloaded them before but have a slight bias
towards Thomas Knoll's Photoshop profiles. Even though I see little
unworkable differences between SWOPV2, and Euro V2 for coated the
separations to Japanese profiles are quite different. The delivered files
print well and so far have had good results. In any case I have no control
over output so they like to have a desired target proof. I imagine that they
tweak incoming foreign jobs to match the dot gain and other climatic
considerations that are influential in Asiatic printing. Don Hutchinson has
been to India to lecture on printing with ICC workflows. Perhaps he could
offer some info.
