This is an immediate and practical problem to solve. I have 55,000 CMYK
scanned images (for holiday brochures) with an average file size of 8-12mb.
These have been collected over the last 6-7 years and have been produced to
what ever standard the chosen printers used at time.
Some have no profile, some are SWOP with varying dot gains, some are
Euroscale in varying favours. The client is now using digital photography,
but many of this old9 images will still have to be used, so a CMS is
important, as is re-purposing.
Yes, I can convert all the images to the same profile, i.e. Adobe RGB or
whatever is best for retouching, so the displayed image will reflect the
file accurately on a calibrated screen in PS, but the many images will look
poor. Other then manually retouching, as the old images are used in the
page, I can think of no automatic method to improve the aesthetic look of
these images.
Any ideas would be gratefully received.
