This question is about making custom profiles and determining if they
are correct.
Here's the back story.
I have the "economy" solution, the CV profilerPro software and a colormouse.
My general procedure is read the patches, make the profile, printout the
PDI target and
use doctorPro to do an edit or two.
Typically the bright yellow in the target prints on the green side so I
use selective color
to take cyan out of the yellow.
Then the PDI targets look good, in fact the consistency across papers
and inksets is
quite amazing.
Then something like this happens.
I just did a series of botanical prints for a photographer and there are
many greens in the
images, the profile is forcing the yellower greens to yellow.
Fortunately I still had the original unedited profile and that more or
less worked, with another minor tweak.
Is my procedure adequate ? Should I be testing with more/different
targets ? Is selective color not
a good approach to an edit ?
Inquiring minds want to know.
J.Z.
