Photoshop is not supplied with profiles for my Fuji PG4500, my several Epson
printers with myriad of papers and so forth. You get a few "canned" profiles
and in some situations, they work wonderfully and in some they don't. Roll
your own is about the best advice I can provide.<<
Are you really comparing a Fuji PG4500 profile with a European standard
printing profile? In the next post are you going to say that Photoshop can
pretty much do without a SWOP profile as well, or would that be then
un-American. In my opinion, the important thing is not to always blindly
defend a certain position, but rather to try to always make things better.
In an earlier post from Henk Gianotten, there was a good description of what
is happening with regards to the efforts in Germany and the ISO profiles.
So, the best advice I can provide is; if the choice for a profile to print
in Europe is between using a widely available profile, which has been
produced by very knowledgeable people, under very tight control, and
reflects current printing conditions, as opposed to whipping something up on
one's own, choose the ISO profile. We have been using this characterization
data and profiles with great success.
