Hi,
To profile a scanner the docs direct you to print a target and scan the
print. These are compared via an Automate plug-in in PS. I am skeptical
that the software can profile the scanner only, when it is using a print
from an unprofiled printer for the target. The docs then have you print a
test image, compare and tweak, and this becomes your printer profile.
It seems to me these two profiles would only be effective in tandem(scan to
print)as neither is an accurate profile of either device exclusively. It
also occurs to me that it might be less accuarte than scanning a IT8 target
for comparision, using that profile for the input, and then print the test
image and tweak.
Do I have this right?
Also, the docs are spartan, to understate the situation. Can I also assume
the cmyk cal process in the same as rgb, just a change in workspace and
target used?
I'm trying to believe but the integrity of the process seems abit
hokey.(technical term)
Thanks,
Don Pushies
